Republican Rep. Peter King called Steve Bannon a “disheveled drunk” who is “not the type of person” the Republicans need in politics during a Wednesday interview.
On CNN, King responded to Doug Jones’ win in the Alabama Senate race by trashing Bannon, who campaigned heavily for Republican Roy Moore.
“You know, I raised this not so much as a political issue but as a moral issue,” King explained. “This guy does not belong on the national stage–he looks like some disheveled drunk that wandered onto the political stage.”

I’ll take a fighter any day over a prissy nancy-boy elitist.
The Republicans replaced the Whigs. Maybe it’s time for history to repeat.
Whatever Peter King is, he isn't a "prissy nancy-boy elitist."
He looks like he got hit by the same truck Bannon did.
In his own way King is a fighter -- maybe mostly to advance his own career, but still ....
And Bannon? For an anti-Establishment guy, he's been following the usual Establishment pattern: falling upwards.
He loses his White House job. Not he loses the Alabama election. What's he going to lose next?
King just dug his own grave.
Bannon may not be model material, but he is smart and savvy.
This is why Reps lose elections; they eat their own.
Can’t say I disagree. Bannon can run with the suits, speak with pinash, but chose to look and behave like a mountain man. I agree he had the countenance of a drunk in that one Alabama rally last week.
Bannon needs to clean up and go lead, like we know he can.
I don’t think he is losing.
Trump set him free to campaign. He lost Moore but I don’t see the fallout.
You think Bannon is responsible for this? What did Bannon do to cause this loss?
“I might be drunk but in the morning I’ll be sober and you’ll still be ugly!”
A new Republican party? Ain't gonna ever happen. They intend to stay in power, even if it means scorched earth and politics of personal destruction against outsider Republicans.
This is what I am thinking too.
He works for a living and is quite intelligent.
King could have been better off to keep his trap shut.
BS. You’re just not listening. Bannon has it in spades, on substance. You’ve missed the point.

I’ve thought this for a long time. Times change...
Peter King groped me.
Ah ... yes. An independent minded FReeper. :-) Whether I agree with these specific points is irrelevant. I like the way you think and challenge the herd.
King is a putz. Bannon is going to kick their asses before it is over.

King is throwing stones from a glass house. A pious loud mouth who is a member of a club full of lechers.
Maybe he will gain 100 lbs, so he can look like Ted Kennedy.
The republican party really hates conservatives. Really hated them. Did you ever hear an elected republican official say that Ted Kennedy looked like a disheveled drunk? Of course not. ‘Nuff said.
