You are forgetting about sound risk management, if you get too top heavy at some point you can expect awful results. When you don't account for risk and you are a too big to fail (our federal govt) you end up with bad consequences.
It's the media, for one thing. You of all people should recognize that. Look at the attention she got for winning the nomination (which was tantamount to winning the seat). Cons don't schedule "60 Minutes" interviews.
Plus, she illustrates all the bad qualities cons have been ascribing to lefties forever and a day. Dumb as a post and farther left than the Marx who wasn't a brother. Why does Steve King get so much attention from you guys here -- and a fair amount nationally? It isn't because he's powerful or has ever accomplished anything. It's because he fits the stereotype liberals advance for conservatives.
Like in the 1970's when he was sued for racial discrimination, because the FBI found that when blacks were sent to rent one of his apartments they were told none were available, while whites sent to check on the same apartments were offered leases.
The records, posted on the FBI's Freedom of Information Act website, include a 1974 interview with a former doorman at a Trump building in Brooklyn.
A supervisor "told me that if a black person came to 2650 Ocean Parkway and inquired about an apartment for rent, and he, that is [redacted] was not there at the time, that I should tell him that the rent was twice as much as it really was, in order that he could not afford the apartment," the ex-doorman said.
I couldn't since I added them after I started typing, but here they are above your quote. Maybe one of them can tell you that your have a pattern of signalling out women specifically.
Side question: Are you saying King is a racist or that he just fits an stereotype from dems?
Hasn't every serious GOP presidential candidate gone on his phesant hunt. To symbolically kiss his ring?
Yeah...me and the Washington Post. Since saying anything about any DEM woman ever is tantamount to "a pattern of attacking women".
We know that this is just your deflection of choice.
Dumb comment is made by Dem.
Dumb comment is pointed out.
You ignore dumb comment.
You claim dumb comment is being pointed out because of commenters race, gender or affiliation.
Rinse. Repeat.
It doesn't really matter. What I was saying was that he fits the stereotype. Whether he's actually a racist, I do not know. Just like I don't know of AOC is really dumber than a post. In both cases, the person in question does and says things that can be interpreted to support that claim.
Cheney didn't. If he had, we may not have had King to kick around any longer.
But Cheney is also a racist homophobe, isn't that the official word? Birds of a feather, etc.
I think you misunderstood my statement. I didn't mean that "60 Minutes" doesn't interview conservatives. I meant that conservatives don't decide who "60 Minutes" will interview.
Athiest, big government, open border, Jew loving New World Order Apostle.
Agreed. Similar things happened with Obama, too, during his first and only Senate term. It ultimately elevated him.
And yet Rush is being screamed about on MSNBC every other night. He has no power either. Why? Because, like her, and Bernie, he's a thought leader with a shit ton of followers.
She's a star in her own party because of many of her crazy ideas. If she only had 200 Twitter followers, no one would care about her. But there's a huge contingency of Yahoo!'s who think she's the 2nd coming and her ideas are great.
That's why.
Pray tell, how does one determine if someone is "actually" racist. Aren't public comments and actions proof enough for most of us? How much rope will you give Mr. King before he hangs himself on the racist gallows?
Steve’s just been constantly taken out of context for 16 years. The libs need to quit labeling him.
I reserve the term for people who clearly earn it. I don't think opposing illegal immigration is enough. If he starts throwing the n word around, or refers to the illegals by some similar slur, I'd grant him racisthood.
