After longtime resident and career bigot Frazier Glenn Miller Jr. shot and killed three people outside a Jewish Community Center in Overland Park, Kansas, Clevenger initially stated that he supported Miller's beliefs but not his actions.

Clevenger's lost history of serving as Miller's mouthpiece for anti-Semitic rants were widely reported, and Clevenger made a bumbling series of remarks that centered around him recalling how nice Miller was (as long as he was interacting with other white men) and that he still felt "some" of Miller's conspiracy theories about Jews being evil were accurate (they weren't, and Clevenger was further discredited by confirmation of this).

Two Marionville officials resigned and stated they would not serve in a government that included Celvenger, and a 4–1 vote by aldermen to begin the impeachment process prompted Clevenger's decision to quit.

Approximately 30.9% of all households were made up of individuals, and 17.3% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.
