Trump & King, two peas in a pod

[OscarLevant]

Old clichés aside, this mashup is very interesting. Individuals with a disease called 'white nationalism' or it's variants, white supremacy, etc., cannot help rearing their ugly heads. Question is, repubs are rebuking King, but why not Trump, as Trump even said himself,

(source: The Atlantic)

In 2014, as Trump was mulling a run for president, he made an appearance in Iowa with King, calling him “special guy, a smart person, with really the right views on almost everything,” and noting that their views on the issues were so similar that “we don’t even have to compare notes.”

The MOST notable modern similarities currently topical is how the stance of Democrat Nancy Pelosi and Democrat Chuck Schumer 5 years ago is identical to the stance of Republican Donald Trump now.

Not relevant to the point in the OP.

I'm surprised Trump hasn't come out and complained about how unfair King has been treated.

No reason for him to. Trump only defends people who have something on him.

Both must suffer from WALLZHEIMER'S.

Steve King made the mistake of openly saying what he believes. People like Trump hide their beliefs.

It's pretty obvious. The GOP can't condemn POTUS for his racism so they go after King.
