Steve King Threatens Government Shutdown, Impeachment Over Executive Action
In an interview with Newsmax today, Rep. Steve King warned that an executive action by (the President) providing (something) would perhaps irrevocably destroy “our constitutional republic” by turning the United States into a “lawless third-world nation” and (the President) into a “king.”
“If the American people take that sitting down or lying down, then our constitutional republic has been destroyed to the point where putting it back together again in our lifetime looks to me like it’s a very difficult task,” he warned, adding that demonstrators should “surround the White House” and “protest outside the gates of the president’s residence until he lets go of this unconstitutional action.”
The Iowa Republican added that if (the President) were to take executive action, he would force a government shutdown and move to impeach the president.
“We know there is the ‘I-word’ in the Constitution that none of us want to say or act on but I would have never had said there will be no boots on the ground, so in this context, everything is on the table because our republic is on the table, our constitutional republic is on the table,” he said.
