Big League Politics has the analysis of a Politico article reporting a full frontal assault on the re-election efforts of King with the help of Texas' Karl Rove and Will Hurd: (emphasis mine)
"The congressman for Iowa’s 4th district is being targeted by the Republican establishment for previous comments that were distorted by the Fake News media.
Politico reported that “Major Republican power players in Washington and Iowa — from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and operative Karl Rove, to former Gov. Terry Branstad and evangelical leaders — have ganged up to take him down.”
“It’s business, it’s conservative and more moderate, too. It’s basically the whole collection,” declared Nick Ryan, a long-time GOP operative who has opposed King. “You’re seeing all segments of the Republican Party really coming together and working together in an effort to defeat King, and that’s something that’s never happened before.
Although he has a strong base of support due to his immigration patriotism, establishment Republicans have been trying to do everything they can to unseat him.
Iowa State Senator Randy Feenstra is challenging King in the Republican primary.Politico featured the contributions of soon-to-be former Texas Congressman Will Hurd to Kings primary opponent.
"In a rare rebuke of a sitting colleague, five members of the House GOP conference have donated to Feenstra: Reps. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), Paul Mitchell (R-Mich.), Steve Stivers (R-Ohio), Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.) and Will Hurd (R-Texas), who recently launched a group to help diversify the GOP ranks."The Iowa Standard reported Feenstra is endorsed by the cheap labor lobby which wants amnesty for illegal aliens.
By supporting amnesty for illegal aliens Karl Rove and Will Hurd are essentially campaigning on behalf of jobs and economic prosperity for foreign nationals, preferring socialism and government welfare dependence for American citizens, especially todays teenagers and college graduates who want to work in the trades, healthcare and technology.
