As I stated in the article, there were two ways to interpret his statements. His later open embrace of the terms "white nationalist" and "white supremacist" suggest that the first interpretation described below was not as implausible as it seemed at the time.
The original article said this:
There are two ways to read this tweet.
The first is the most obvious: as racism. The idea that babies from abroad cannot be civilized to Western values – that “somebody else’s babies” are unfit for assimilation – is racist. If that’s what King said and meant, he should immediately be censured by his Republican colleagues on the floor of Congress, and we should all pray that he loses his Congressional seat.
He clearly is calling him a racist.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
