$641,000 ON TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY ALONE TO PROMINENT
REPUBLICANS DISAVOWED KING THIS

FACTO ACKNOWLEDGMENT HE’S IN
DANGER IN A DISTRICT DONALD
TRUMP CARRIED BY 27 POINTS.
AT A CANDIDATE FORUM TODAY KING
ABSOLUTELY EXPLODED WHEN
CONSTITUENT CALEB VON FOSZEN
ASKED HOW HIS VIEWS DIFFERED --
>> THIS SATURDAY THERE WAS A
SHOOTING AT SYNAGOGUE IN
PITTSBURGH THAT LEFT 11 PEOPLE
DEAD.
DEAD. THE TERRORIST WHO COMMITTED THE
CRIME, HE WAS QUOTED AS SAYING
THEY BRING INVADERS THAT KILL
OUR PEOPLE, I CAN’T SIT BACK AND
WATCH OUR PEOPLE GET
SLAUGHTERED.
SLAUGHTERED. YOU STEVE KING HAD BEEN QUOTED
AS SAYING WE CAN’T RESTORE OUR
CIVILIZATION WITH OTHER PEOPLE’S
BABIES.
BABIES. YOU AND THE SHOOTER BOTH SHARE
AN IDEOLOGY THAT IS --
>> NO, DON’T YOU DO THAT.
DO NOT ASSOCIATE ME WITH THAT
SHOOTER.
SHOOTER. I KNEW YOU WERE AN AMBUSHER WHEN
YOU WALKED IN THE ROOM.
WE DON’T PLAY THESE GAMES HERE
IN IOWA.
IN IOWA. NO, YOU’RE DON.
YOU CROSSED THE LINE.
IT’S NOT TOLERABLE TO ACCUSE ME
TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH A GUY THAT
SHOT 11 PEOPLE IN PITTSBURGH.
I AM A PERSON WHO HAS STOOD WITH
ISRAEL FROM THE BEGINNING, THE
LENGTH OF THAT NATION IS THE
LENGTH OF MY LIFE.
AND I’VE BEEN WITH HIM ALL ALONG
AND I WILL NOT ANSWER YOUR
QUESTION, I’LL NOT LISTEN TO
ANOTHER WORD FROM YOU.
THIS IS OVER IF HE KEEPS
TALKING.
TALKING. THIS IS OVER IF YOU DON’T STOP
TALKING.
TALKING. I’M LEAVING IF YOU DON’T --
>> HIS ANSWER -- YES.
>> SIR --
>> SIR -- >> STOP IT.
>> YOU’RE DONE.
I WOULD ASK WHOEVER IS GUARDING
THIS DOOR TO LEAD THIS MAN OUT
OF THE ROOM.
>> AND JOINING ME NOW, THAT
CONSTITUENT THAT STEVE KING
KICKED OUT, KALEB VAN FOSSEN.
WE ASKED CONGRESSMEN KING TO
COME ON THE SHOW TONIGHT.
KALEB, WHY DID YOU DO THAT?
>> THE REASON I DID THIS IS
BECAUSE THIS SATURDAY IN
PITTSBURGH THERE WAS A TRAGIC
SHOOTING THAT LEFT 11 PEOPLE
DEAD.
DEAD. AND THE IDEOLOGY OF THE MURDER
WHO COMMITTED THIS ACT WAS THE
SAME BIGOTED WHITE SUPREMACIST
IDEOLOGY THAT STEVE KING
ESPOUSES.
ESPOUSES. >> HE SAYS HE’S A MEMBER OF
CONGRESS WHO’S NEVER COMMITTED A
CRIME, ESPOUSING HIS BELIEF FOR
AMERICA.
AMERICA. WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THAT?
>> WELL, HIM AND -- STEVE KING
AND THE SHOOTER BOTH SHARE THIS
CORE BELIEF THAT AMERICAN OR
WESTERN CULTURE, WHICH IS
BASICALLY WHITE CULTURE IN STEVE
KING’S MIND, IS UNDER ATTACK BY
THIS FOREIGN ENEMY AND THEY HAVE
BOTH TALKED AND ESPOUSED IDEAS
ABOUT WHITE GENOCIDE AND THE
GREAT REPLACEMENT.
GREAT REPLACEMENT. IF YOU LOOK AT KING’S RHETORIC
AND COMPARE IT TO THE SHOOTERS,
IT’S VERY MUCH IN LINE AND IT’S
CLEAR THEY BOTH SHARE VERY --
>> HE SEEMED TO THINK YOU WERE
NOT -- YOU ARE AN IOWAN, IS THAT
CORRECT?
CORRECT? >> OH, ABSOLUTELY.
I LIVE IN HIS DISTRICT.
>> YEAH, HE SEEMED TO THINK THAT
YOU WERE SOMEHOW NOT FROM THE
DISTRICT.
DISTRICT. HE SAID, THIS IS NOW HOW WE DO
THIS IN IOWA.
IT MADE ME WONDER, A LOT OF
PEOPLE WATCH KING FROM OUTSIDE
THAT DISTRICT, IS THAT THE
BELIEF SYSTEM OF THE FOLKS IN
THAT DISTRICT.
THAT DISTRICT. YOU’RE IN THAT DISTRICT.
WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?
>> NO, ABSOLUTELY NOT.
I MEAN, TYPICALLY IOWA PEOPLE
HAVE GOOD VALUES.
IOWANS CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER.
THEY WANT TO LIVE IN A COMMUNITY
WHERE PEOPLE LOOK OUT FOR EACH
OTHER AND PEOPLE AREN’T BUILDING
THESE LINES OF US VERSUS THEM
AND THIS JUST ISN’T THE HIGHWAY
NOW.
NOW. STEVE KING MAY HAVE BEEN ELECTED
BUT HE DOESN’T REPRESENT YOUR
EVERYDAY IOWAN.
EVERYDAY IOWAN. >> HE HAS A REAL RACE, IT SEEMS,
ON HIS HANDS AND IT DOESN’T SEEM
LIKE HE’S BEEN DOING A LOT OF
THESE EVENTS.
THESE EVENTS. A CANDIDATE FORUM, WHERE WAS IT?
>> YEAH, IT WAS A CANDIDATE
FORUM.
FORUM. I PAID $15 FOR THE TICKET.
YOU’RE RIGHT, HE HASN’T BEEN
DOING A LOT OF THESE EVENTS.
I TRAVELED FOUR HOURS AWAY THIS
SATURDAY TO TALK TO HIM AT
ANOTHER EVENT.
ANOTHER EVENT. AS SOON AS I WALKED UP AND TRIED
TO SHAKE HIS HAND HE IMMEDIATELY
WALKED UP, HAD HIS SON COME UP
AND KICK ME OUT OF THE VENUE.
>> THIS IS BEFORE YOU ASKED THIS
QUESTION OR AFTER YOU’D ASKED
THE QUESTION?
THE QUESTION? >> THIS WAS BEFORE, THIS IS
SATURDAY.
SATURDAY. THIS IS MY SECOND TIME TRYING TO
TALK TO STEVE KING.
>> HENCE THE SUSPICION YOU WERE
AN AMBUSHER.
AN AMBUSHER. >> NOT AT ALL.
I AM ONE OF HIS CONSTITUENTS, I
HAD A SINCERE QUESTION I WANTED
TO TALK TO HIM ABOUT.
>> BELIEVE ME, I AGREE.
ARE THERE PEOPLE IN YOUR CAMPUS,
FOR INSTANCE THERE AT IOWA STATE
UNIVERSITY IN AMES, IOWA IN THE
DISTRICT THAT STEVE KING
REPRESENTS TALKING ABOUT THIS
RACE?
RACE? >> OH, YEAH, ABSOLUTELY.
ONE THING I WANT TO POINT OUT,
THOUGH, IS THAT STEVE KING IS A
PERSON WHO TRAVELED ON A PLANE
ACROSS THE GLOBE TO AUSTRIA TO
TALK TO WHITE SUPREMACISTS, BUT
WON’T TALK TO HIS OWN
