[he (Rep. Steven King) said critics of the president have created a climate of hate that threatens the country.]
Let's just disregard any actions Trump has done and blame it on his critics?  Americans should just let Trump spout constant lies and cyberbullying but if we protest, correct, or criticize Trump THEY are the cause?
I hope this is pure partisanship because if he honestly believes that then Rep. King is long overdue for an eye exam and an MRI.   Doesn't even mention how it takes two to tango and the Republicans don't exactly have a track record of "reaching across the aisle" these few decades.  In fact, since the "Republican Revolution" under Gingrich back in the 90s it's been anything but.  Remind me again which party has a determined faction of "no compromise"?  I don't know of any contemporaneous faction in the Democrats equivalent to the Tea Party in regards to political entrenchment and division.
