Speaking about abortion bills, Rep. Steve King recently said “What if we went back through all the family trees and just pulled out anyone who was a product of rape or incest? Would there be any population of the world left if we did that? Considering all the wars and all the rapes and pillages that happened throughout all these different nations, I know that I can’t say that I was not a part of a product of that.” Several politicians have called for King to resign in the wake of these statements. Do you think he should or should not resign?
