BREAKING NEWS: Randy Feenstra defeats Congressman Steve King (-Inc) in GOP Primary
>> I always thought that Steve King was a good guy.
There’s more than one King, and they often get confused.
Will he beat the democrat?
And his big mouth.
Steve Hing VERY non=PC.
Like hin still, hope this PC guy is acceptable.
Many of the deep State candidates aren’t.
He’s supposed to be a solid conservative and ally of Trump.
Backed by Ben Shapiro? LOL That guy is not a supporter of Trump.
We deserve better and I believe the voters deserve the truth, especially now. Families and farmers are hurting and we must make a decision: Are we going to continue down the same ineffective path or are we going to elect an effective conservative ally of President Trump with a proven record of delivering conservative results? As Ronald Reagan once said, “It’s time for bold colors and not pale pastels.”
I don't care if he is good bad or indifferent, nine terms is too many. Time for him to go.
But that is just me, y'all do what you want.
My Reenstra knowledge is limited.
But seems the IA voters who knew them best did not re-select King.
Iowa
Of course he ran as more conservative. They all do that. He’s a Chamber of Commerce, Romneybot.
The fact that the Chamber of Commerce supported King's opponent means Feenstra is clearly to King's left on immigration.
100% of the vote is in.
King lost by 46% to 36%.
A third candidate got 7%.

Ben Shapiro is a NeoCon
A real prick
I used to like him
My mistake
#7. King was partially beaten by his stupid mouth. Don’t know what would be held against him as a GOP congressman but damned, he was just an ahole when he spoke.
Ben S is a very conflicted guy.
At the end of the day however, Ben is a true “never Trumper”.
If order to win the house back, we’re going to need RINOs in areas that are not winnable. Apparently we’d lose the seat had king won again. Also 9 terms is way more the enough.
Thnx
