The Epoch Times touched on King’s 2016 endorsement of President Trump:
Introducing then-candidate Trump at a church event in Ohio in 2016, Mr. King called him “courageous and brave” and said he believed the future president would fix the “corrupt” and “rigged” system and bring the country “back to inclusiveness.”
Many embraced the endorsement from King, who has long been said to have a similar philosophy and outlook on life as President Trump.
