Rep Steve King is just the latest sacrificial lamb...

Every year or two, the Repubs will find a guy like him who says some racist bullshit and turn on him. They get all huffy and declare how terrible he is and allow him to be ousted and then just continue on as before.

If nothing changes, nothing changes. The Repubs have yet to prove there is any meat behind their veneer of pearl clutching.

Will it change this time? Not holding my breath.

Look who is in the WH now, and who their "fearless leader" is! Having trump their leader pretty much proves how racist they really are.
