King remains on Reynolds’ campaign committee. 
Things just aren’t getting better for Congressman Steve King. Following national condemnation, even from members of his own party, King lashed out at an Iowan for asking him to clarify his views that can be categorized as white supremacy. That, along with his other controversies, led to even more supporters departing his camp yesterday.

It should be noted that King remains a prominent member of Governor Reynolds’ campaign committee.

COMPANIES
Yesterday, AT&TBlack Hills Energy, and Smithfield Foods all pulled their support from King. AT&T cited King’s clear violation of one of their core values: “stand for equality” as the reason for withdrawing their financial support.

King received even more bad news from within his own party. Arizona Senator Jeff Flake went on CNN and said that he is supporting King’s opponent, J.D. Scholten. And Prominent Republican strategist Karl Rove tweeted out his agreement with an editorial from the National Review that conservatives need to kick King to the curb:

As if matters could get any worse for King, Media Matters uncovered that King has promoted a white supremacist, anti-Semitic, Holocaust-denying website multiple times on his social media platforms.
