I suspect that King is a decent man, though I don't know that for a fact. What I do know for a fact is that he says stupider things than Joe Biden. He is remarkably lacking in self-awareness and says things that are perfect for taking out of context and hitting him, and by extension, conservatives over the head with. Trump does the same type of extemporaneous effluence, but King doesn't have the personality or pull to be able to get away with it. And, he says some things that even Trump wouldn't say, like this one.
