(Does this mean Tancredo is on the Trump “not naughty” list? — Promoted by Colorado Pols)
Former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo spent at least part of Saturday with Donald Trump, Jr., and others hunting pheasants with Steve King, a Republican Congressman from Iowa.
“Hunting pheasants this beautiful day with Congressman Steve King and Donald Trump, Jr. Doesn’t get any better than this! #MAGA,” wrote Tancredo on Facebook.
In the photo on the right, Tancredo is pictured on the top left; Trump, Jr., is top middle.
Tancredo generated recent headlines after he spoke with former Trump adviser Steve Bannon about his possible gubernatorial run in Colorado.
Tancredo has said he’s shot “a lot of pheasants” at King’s annual pheasant hunt before. And he’s schmoozed with fellow anti-immigrant GOP notables at the event, including U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, whom he met there in 2015.
This year Rep. Louie Gohmert of Texas and former Rep. Gill Gutknecht of Minnesota were slated to attend King’s pheasant hunt, along with Tancredo and others.
When Trump, Jr., campaigned in Colorado during the presidential election, he was criticized for hunting animals much larger than pheasants, such as water buffalo.
King’s Col. Bud Day Pheasant Hunt was a fundraiser, and took place Saturday and Sunday at the Hole N’ the Wall Lodge near Akron, Iowa.
King said in a statement that the event includes “good, healthy conversation among conservatives who love America.”

Repugs gonna deplore Tancredo all the way to the nomination.
I wish all racists would wear orange like this. Make them easy to spot.
They usually wear all white and carry Tiki Torches.
I know, it's the gayest shit ever.
Gayer than a corral full of overweight, middle-aged, white guys wearing bright tangerine and pumping their long-guns?? . . .
Ever see a bar full of Proud Boys? Nothing homoerotic about that. By golly, they're happy about being white, though….
Missed that one.
My bar hopping days (weekend nights) are pretty much limited to Hometown USA here anymore — we’re overwhelmingly white-bread GOPburbians hereabouts, but not criminally so . . .
. . . my guess is your PBs would find my proud-to-be OWGs awfully fucking boring.
Just younger, slightly fitter, more violent versions of the same racist culture:
Wonder if they joke about how many peasants they could've bagged.
Peasant hunting… Ah, the good old days.
I find hunting to be one of the more positive aspects of gun culture. At least, it puts food on the table. We ate a lot of pheasant and venison when the kids were young.
