“A lot of his views are just very out there,” Emily West said. “He’s made multiple comments that are racist and homophobic and how he doesn’t like the Jews.”
Even the Missouri Republican party issued a statement denouncing Steve West for all his “shocking and vile comments.” The party also distance itself from their candidate, implying that he is not decent, and saying his comments do not represent their belief.
The statement also states that “West’s abhorrent rhetoric has absolutely no place in the Missouri Republican Party or anywhere. We wholeheartedly condemn his comments.”
But Emily was shocked with she drove through the district her father is running for and saw huge amount of support her openly “racist” and “homophobic” father is getting.
“I think it’s just insane that people are putting out his signs,” she said. “You see his signs everywhere. I don’t understand how people can put out his signs knowing the comments that he’s made.”
Emily said her dad’s views have isolated him from the rest of the family. But apparently he is the exact candidate some Republicans in Missouri want in their Government.
