The highest-ranking Black member of Congress says former President George W. Bush lauded his role as a “savior” in helping get President Joe Biden elected to the White House.

U.S. House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn said Wednesday on a call with reporters that the Republican former president told him ahead of the inaugural ceremony that, if he had not given Biden the boost he did ahead of South Carolina’s primary, “we would not be having this transfer of power today.”

Clyburn says Bush went on to say that Biden was “the only one who could have defeated the incumbent president,” Donald Trump. Trump and the Bush family didn’t get along.

Clyburn’s pivotal endorsement ahead of South Carolina’s Democratic primary helped propel Biden to the nomination. Biden won South Carolina by a margin of nearly 30 points.

Clyburn, South Carolina’s only Democratic representative in Congress, is the dean of the state’s Democrats and the third-ranking member of the U.S. House.

The GOP was in on the coup. McConnell is totally allied with the Bushes. Stealing the Republican nomination from dorky Jeb! was unforgivable.

BS! With Dominion voting machines, anyone could have won the election. What he is saying is that Biden as the former V.P. returning to power makes some kind of credible story. As if people where somehow dissatisfied Trump. With the Bushes stealing elections, its all about the cover the story. It only works with control of the news media.

I will not be saying “not MY president.” I’ll be saying “not THE president.”
