He known as King Steve to the white supremacists

UPDATE: King has responded to Weaver’s exit from the race by baselessly accusing her of inventing the death threats.

I wanted #KimWeaver IN the race-not out. Democrats drove her out of the race-not R's. Death threats likely didn't happen but a fabrication.

He has yet to provide any evidence that the threats were a “fabrication,” or that “Democrats drove [Weaver] out of the race.”
