Steve King compared himself to Brett Kavanaugh in his first town hall since his House punishment

In the first town hall in his home district since being punished in a vote by the House, Republican Rep. Steve King compared himself to Justice Brett Kavanaugh, and blamed circumstance for the controversy surrounding racist remarks he made in The New York Times.

"It's stunning and astonishing to me that four words in a New York Times quote can outweigh 20 some years of public service," King said in his opening remarks to the Primghar, Iowa crowd, which were livestreamed online.

"I even think of Brett Kavanaugh, he went through that inquisition, he at least had accusers, I don't have accusers even," King continued, referencing the controversial approval of Brett Kavanaugh after multiple women accused him of sexual misconduct. "Not one soul has stood up and said Steve King has acted in a racist fashion."

King faced intense criticism after he was quoted asking "White nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization - how did that language become offensive?" in a New York Times interview. King would go on to be stripped of his committee assignments in the House as a result of the statements.
