Hey, it is easy to win elections when anyone who opposes the trumpisst/republican agenda has to quit running because of threats. So much for democracy.

"Kim Weaver, a Democrat who sought to unseat Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa), announced Saturday that she is dropping her bid after being subjected to “alarming acts of intimidation, including death threats.”
“While some may say enduring threats are just a part of running for office, my personal safety has increasingly become a concern,” she wrote.
King, who regularlystokescontroversy with offensive rhetoric, responded by claiming that the threats were probably “a fabrication.”
King’s office did not respond to a request for comment."
