==2020 U.S. House election in Iowa's 4th district==
===Republican primary===
Having ran for [[United States House of Representatives]] in 2020 to primary challenge the anti-establishment, [[movement conservative]] [[Steve King]] after the latter was the target of vicious media bullying in addition to being excessively rebuked by the House GOP leaders, Feenstra won the primary by just under 10% of the vote over Rep. King<ref name="Iowa Primary Election Results: Fourth Congressional District">[https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/06/02/us/elections/results-iowa-house-district-4-primary-election.html Iowa Primary Election Results: Fourth Congressional District]</ref> after the [[establishment]] heavily favored him. His victory was congratulated by [[Donald Trump]],<ref>[https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1268139884700721153 Donald J. Trump on Twitter: "Congratulations to Randy Feenstra on..."]</ref> who broke with King after the latter made strongly [[pro-life]] statements that drew hysteria from [[pro-abortion]] [[leftists]].<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-rep-steve-king-rape-incest-comments Trump knocks Rep.
