“I’m asking the President to recall the commitments that he’s made, keep them so that he can keep his base,” he said. “I’m afraid that if there’s any one thing that would cause the Trump base to leave him, that is for him to grant amnesty in any kind of deal when it was such a strong campaign promise to end the unconstitutional DACA program.”
Come on Steve, don’t play naive gullible waif. It doesn’t become you. As if you believe commitment is a word the president understands or believes.
What you are trying to do, it appears, is send a message to the alt right that you have the president’s ear, he listens to you (not). Funny thing, though - it makes you seem very powerless. Sure you get coverage for the outrageously bigoted things you say, but you are really just a back bencher from Iowa, with no real influence. Notice you weren’t picked for Trump’s cabinet.
That said - your feigned naivete (yours and Coulter’s) are cracking us up.
Weather vane King seems to have realized Trump cultist would rather throw him under the bus than bail on their savior. Coulter and Rush will soon be doing the same “loyalty” walk of shame.
“And by the way, it would be petulant to walk away from a President because you disagreed with him on a single issue.”
But you just said that the base would be “blown up, destroyed, irreparable, and disillusioned beyond repair” over it.
So you’re admitting Trump’s base is petulant…good to know.
Sociopath’s gotta sociopath.
I still think a great place to test the wall he loves to dream about is around his office with him in it.
“And by the way, it would be petulant to walk away from a President because you disagreed with him on a single issue.”
Steve King disapproves of petulance – since when?
I’m thinking more a moat, that way he can see the world keeps spinning, the sun rises and sets, and the 7% Hispanic pop. in his district can make fun of the monkey in his cage. Sort of an experiment of “no man is an island.”
I’m thinking someone up the food chain (possibly a Cyrillic alphabet user) has something on him if he turns this fast on an issue that is pretty much the whole point of his career in politics.
I suspect that King likes to pet-u-lance, just not in public.
Goebbels was loyal right until that moment he gave a Luger a blowjob. Perhaps history can repeat itself.
If a radical right winger like King isn’t willing to bail on Trump despite his DACA agreement with the Dems, then this is good news for the chances of a bill passing.
Certainly implies Trump’s base will follow him blindly anywhere.
I believe there were more than 24 hours between the two statements so everything is good.
I’m sure Goebbels and Hitler had their little tiffs, too…
As an Iowan let me say one more time - Please do not report on this ineffective, misguided, bigoted waste of tax payer dollar congressman. The less often his name is mentioned the less chance he is reelected!
Headline: “Stupid Man Announces He Will Continue Doing Stupid Things, Cites Stupid Reason”.
Steve King has the morals of Albert Speer.
Trump could sever Steve King’s left arm, roast it on an open fire and serve it for dinner and Steve King would salute with the other arm.
Steve King is an open racist. His only option is his fellow racist, Trump.
