White Nationalist Rep. Steve King Posts Violent Meme About New Civil War [View all]

.


Funny, in my state the Dems are the ones who have the majority of firepower. This is according to a teaparty State Trooper who lived down the street and moved.


Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa), who has a long history of touting white nationalism, has taken his meme game to a violent new level.

The disgraced lawmaker ― who was unceremoniously stripped of all his committee assignments earlier this year for previous white nationalist rhetoric ― shared a graphic that imagined “another civil war,” this time between red and blue states.

“One side has about 8 trillion bullets, while the other side doesn’t know which bathroom to use,” states the meme, shared on one of King’s verified Facebook pages.

“Wonder who would win...” added King, apparently not noticing that his home state was actually depicted on the losing side.

The Blue states are also the ones who fund those socialist Red States.

Who would be their nannies if funding were cut off?
