Republican Rep. Steve King clashed with constituents as he defended several of his controversial comments on abortion and immigration during a Saturday town hall
King was asked in a tense exchange if he would defend comments he made Wednesday questioning whether there would"be any population of the world left" if you pulled people out who were"products of rape and incest," according to a video posted online by The Des Moines Register, which first reported the remarks. The comments drew condemnation from both Democrats and Republicans.
"There was a time, when I was your age, that if you grew up with a single mother, you were not considered equal to the rest of the people in your classroom," King said.King clashed with a constituent who identified himself as an immigrant when pressed for a response to his own quotes"that are kind of offensive or demeaning towards immigrants.
