Louie Gohmert: ‘I’m Kind to Foreigners,’ You Just Haven’t Seen It
Reps. Steve King, Louie Gohmert, Michele Bachmann held a press conference Wednesday morning with Sen. Ted Cruz in protest of President Barack Obama‘s executive action delaying the deportations of millions of undocumented immigrants.
Several notable Beltway reporters were on-hand to document the scene, including PBS’s Domenico Montanaro, who quoted this gem from Gohmert:
Louie Gohmert: "I'm kind to foreigners. You haven't seen it, but at 2 in the morning I've given food to little children."
