Steve West (R), who is running for the Missouri state House, has a history of making anti-Semitic, racist and homophobic comments online, including saying “Hitler was right” about who was “behind” the events taking place in Germany before World War II, the Kansas City Star reports.
Said West: “Looking back in history, unfortunately, Hitler was right about what was taking place in Germany. And who was behind it.”
Another comment: “Jewish people can be beautiful people, but there’s ideologies associated with that that I don’t agree with. Jews today are a remnant of the tribe of Judah that rejected Christ.”
