Steve King: “What if we went back through all the family trees and just pulled out anyone who was a product of rape or incest? Would there be any population of the world left if we did that?”
Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, on Wednesday offered a unique justification for opposing any exceptions to an abortion ban: that rape and incest have been common throughout history, and have made decisive contributions to the human population.
King, who represents Iowa’s 4th Congressional District, has a long history of stirring controversy with controversial comments. Gross! This would explain why these weirdos are fixed on smearing me with claims of incest. Projecting their filth, unreal. https://t.co/PTJpBYyUNVDemocrats, including former Rep. Beto O’Rourke, urged their supporters to donate to J.D. Scholten, who launched a campaign to unseat King earlier this month.
