GOP Rep Peter King: Bannon ‘Looks Like Some Disheveled Drunk That Wandered Onto the Political Stage’

On Wednesday’s “New Day” on CNN, Representative Peter King (R-NY) stated Breitbart Executive Chairman and former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon “does not belong on the national stage. He looks like some disheveled drunk that wandered onto the political stage.”

King said, “I was even raising this, not even as much as a political issue, almost as a moral issue. This guy does not belong on the national stage. He looks like some disheveled drunk that wandered onto the political stage. He does not represent anything I stand for. I consider myself a conservative Republican. I consider myself an Irish Catholic, and he sort of parades himself out there, with his weird alt-right views that he has, and to me, it’s demeaning the whole governmental and political process. this summer, I called on the president to fire him from the White House. And I think last night in Alabama was not just a political statement, that was really just a revulsion by people at his style, at his type of divisive views, which, whether they’re political or governmental, whether he was involved in the White House, trying to undercut the president on his foreign policy, whether he makes — he encourages racial division. This is not the type of person we need in politics. And last night’s election was a manifestation of the revulsion by the American people.”
