Steve King: Undocumented Immigrants Mostly ‘130-Pound’ Drug Runners With ‘Calves The Size Of Cantaloupes’

Congressman King’s comparison of immigrants to dogs wasn’t his only inappropriate comment on the issue.

…just a few days earlier, King gave an interview to Newsmax in which he claimed that the vast majority of undocumented immigrants are “130-pound” drug runners with “calves the size of cantaloupes.”

“For every one who’s a valedictorian, there’s another hundred out there who they weigh 130 pounds and they’ve got calves the size of cantaloupes because they’ve been hauling 75 pounds of marijuana across the desert,” King said.
