Steve King applies faulty reasoning of climate denial to same-sex parenting
Donald Trump issued a new set of family-friendly policies this week, but they won’t really help the people who need the most assistance. Trump surrogate Rep. Steve King (R-IA) joined CNN Wednesday morning to promote the campaign’s new family rhetoric, but when Chris Cuomo asked him about whether the policies would support LGBT families, King said he was only interested in encouraging the “natural family.”
“I want to respect all people, but I want to promote the natural family,” he said, describing it as “a man and a woman joined together hopefully in holy matrimony, blessed by God with children.” Cuomo pushed back, noting that research shows kids raised by LGBT families do just as well, if not better, than kids in King’s so-called “natural families.” King replied, “I think I’d need to look a little further into some of that research. You know, we got down to the global warming argument and found that there was another side to that equation too.”...
