Until recently, Iowa Democrat Kim Weaver was running a promising campaign against noted white supremacist, GOP Rep. Steve King.Weaver raised $100,000 in four days following King s racist claim that we  can t restore our civilization with somebody else s babies    just one of his many, many bigoted outpourings.This, of course, made him very popular with the  alt-Right  (the modern term for Nazis).The 15 Words:[C]ulture and demographics are our destiny. We can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies.  Richard ?

Beginning during my 2016 campaign, I have received very alarming acts of intimidation, including death threats,  Weaver explains on Facebook.  While some may say enduring threats are just a part of running for office, my personal safety has increasingly become a concern. King, almost following a script that seems to be read every single time the Right threatens someone into submission, claimed that the death threats   likely didn t happen but a fabrication. I wanted #KimWeaver IN the race-not out. Democrats drove her out of the race-not R's. Death threats likely didn't happen but a fabrication.
