On Thursday, The New York Times published a piece titled, "Before Trump, Steve King Set the Agenda for the Wall and Anti-Immigrant Politics," featuring an interview with Rep. King (R-IA).
During the interview, King reportedly stated: "White nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization — how did that language become offensive?" He later added, "Why did I sit in classes teaching me about the merits of our history and our civilization?"
After the piece went live, numerous politicians and political commentators condemned King’s alleged statement.
The following are merely a sampling of the condemnations:

If those things are never mentioned, nor their outcomes examined with threads intact, they will slip away to nothingness, their references removed in print and film, and all will be just peachy in the world.
I can't believe how McCarthy attacked Rep. King instead of going after the Muslim that said "we gonna impeach the muddaf**ka."
These spineless Republicans need to be voted out of office.
Interesting the double standard; Louis Farrakahn and his acolytes can spew anti-Semetic trash and get away with it or rappers can use the "N" word at will; no one should condone hate or racist rhetoric in any form and everyone should be held accountable.
King is a smart person, this would not be an issue EXCEPT the Dumbocrats are trying to take away the wall issue! It’s called diversion, but, it ain’t working.....
So sick of GOP elites - MAGA! WWG1WGA!
I'm having a hard time understanding why ALL King's words aren't being used in the news reports. If people could read ALL that he said, perhaps they could get their panties OUT of a wad.
What King said, in context, was fine. It's a shame for him to have to go through this crap.
