Wait, are you telling me that wanted to be king makers for decades? Is it possible that they horribly misunderstood that phase?
Think about it. Twenty years ago, what king did they put into power? That's right, Steve King. It's the only explanation for anyone voting for him. I mean. I can't image another one.
Obviously, I'm joking, but the truth is, any state keeps Steve King in power can't be representative. Iowa only has four districts. If one quarter of their delegation to the HoR was Steve fucking King, they would have send world-class liberals next to him to even hope of being representative of the nation. But that world-class liberal doesn't exist.
Iowa's reps are almost always 3 R and 1 D. Until 2021, one of those Rs was Steve King. Iowa currently has 4 Rs in the house. I'm so glad we gave up the contest to win the hearts and minds of that state.
