Clyburn on the Midterms: ‘Fools’ Would Trade Voting Rights for Cheaper Gas
Breitbart ^ | 10/20/2022 | Pam Key

Posted on 10/20/2022 10:54:44 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

House Majority Whip Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) said Thursday on MSNBC’s “José Díaz-Balart Reports” that he believes it would be foolish for Americans to vote based on inflation concerns rather than “voting rights.”

Díaz-Balart asked, “Congressman, what do you say to people who say Washington can talk about all these big programs and everything else, but I’m worried about the cost of food? I’m seeing the cost of eggs shoot up, chicken, gasoline, you know, coming now with the winter heating. These are all concerns that hit very directly to people.”

Clyburn said, “Well, let me make it very clear, all of us are concerned about these rising costs. All of us knew this would be the case when we put in place this recovery program. Any time you put more money into the economy, prices tend to rise. We do know that price gouging takes place, and that’s what we’re concerned about in Georgia.

So, he’s admitting that the Democrats are the party of expensive fuel?

"What a scumbag."

Beat me to it - that is the exact word I was going to use. No one is being denied the right to vote, voting is easier than ever, yet he makes these outlandish comments and the "fact-checkers" are silent.

“Any time you put more money into the economy, prices tend to rise.“

To be precise when you print money it causes inflation

What they call “voting rights” = enhanced electoral fraud.

Scumbag or not, he's got a point.

When he says voting rights, of course, he means the ability of the Left to cheat at elections. This is quite acceptable to the Left because they want to win at all costs. Voters who want to save America are constrained by their honesty and morality. But then, that's what they're trying to save...an America based on moral behavior.

The Left, particularly Clyburn and those like him, have no love for America or her morals. In fact, they hate America...and they hate the type of people who built America. And they hate the morals of the people who built America.

Clyburn doesn't realize just how bad the world would be without Judeo/Christian culture. He wants a return to African tribalism. His hatred of White America has blinded him to the goodness it has brought to his life and the life of his "people."

Clyburn is one phoney racist token. Only a fool would mention “voting rights” and gasoline prices in the same sentence. Give the boy a banana.

Why voting by mail-in. Ballot harvesting aka go to nursing home and get names of all residents and kindly prefill out their ballots and turn in for them (without their knowledge/consent). Every dirty trick in the book. Those Democrat voting rights.

Silly goose! Don’t you know that “voting rights” mean the right of the liberal elite to create or harvest whatever votes they need in any election close enough to tip in their direction?

Folks can still vote early, but they can’t vote often.

What voting rights? The rights to ensure Democrat victories and slavery?

Hmmm...if we had cheaper gasoline, people could travel to more polling places to deposit lots more fraudulent ballots.

Expensive gas helps prevent that, but it prevents those people from voting multiple times. So inflation and high gas prices are directly impacting the voting rights of those fraudsters.

Or something like that.

That’s an excellent, short essay. I like your succinct statement.

Yes, tell people to ignore real world problems like food and gas prices in favor of imaginary problems like “voting rights” and “neofascism”. Seems like a winning electoral strategy to me.

Clyburn is acting like a voter owner on a plantation
