Jim Clyburn (D) Says Trump Refusing To Concede Like Hitler
2020-11-14
[Cove] Was Gore refusing to concede for 37 days like Hitler? How about Stacy Abrams, who still hasn’t conceded the Georgia governor’s race?

A top Democrat on Capitol Hill has compared President Donald Trump’s refusal to concede to "what Hitler did in Germany" during a new interview as criticism grows over the president’s anti-Democratic attacks on the electoral process.

Rep. Jim Clyburn (D—SC) said on Tuesday night he was concerned the president was attempting to take on an authoritarian role despite losing to President-elect Joe Biden in the 2020 US elections and urged Americans to defend the results of the election.

Speaking to CNN’s Chris Cuomo, the House majority whip said: "I’m beginning to see what happened in Germany back in the 1930s. I never thought that could happen in this country."

"How do you elect a person president, then all of a sudden you’re going to give him the authority to be dictator?" He continued. "That’s what Hitler did in Germany."

Adolf Hitler was elected chancellor in Germany, as Mr Clyburn said on Tuesday, noting how he "successfully discredited the news media" in his quest to hold onto power and become a dictator.

"I cannot see that happening here," the Democrat said. "If it did, that means that the American people are much more — or less, I should say, intelligent than I think they are."

Does that make all of us who support making sure there’s as little election fraud as possible and wanting recounts to only count legally cast votes Brownshirts? And being mean to a news media who is hostile to Republicans is like Hitler?

I’m still waiting for Democrats to tell us what freedoms Trump has taken away them. How he’s put the Government’s foot on their neck. Has he sicced the IRS on anyone like Obama did? Democrats say they want to "save Democracy" (yeah, I know), so, why not allow recounts to make sure things were on the up and up? Nothing is certified till the Electoral College meets in December.

#12  Even though Clyburn is a moron, he was probably thinking of modern-day Germany and its Chancellors who get elected.

Funny how nobody ever gets called "Stalin".

#11  If we had a real media they'd question this guy and ask him about his History teachers over the years and his in-depth knowledge of history.

#8  Democrats demanded a recount in Michigan in 2016 and the recount showed their hardcore Democrat precincts in Detroit were fraudulent. 60% of the precincts in Detroit had their ballots thrown out. That's when Hillary capitulated.

Fast fwd to 2020: no problem with Detroit's tens of thousands of 3am ballots, every one of them marked for the Democrat, and only the Democrat presidential candidate. Nope, no problems at all

#7  If I remember right, the Dems were talking about getting electors to change their votes to give it to Hilly.

#5  That these clowns compare President Trump to A.H. with a straight face is patently absurd & pathetic.

And people within the Democratic party condone this behavior? Are there Dems who had a relative or know someone who was a victim of Nazi atrocities and who actually believe Clyburn's rubbish?

#4  If Trump was like Hitler, Clyburn would have been lifted in the middle of the night by faceless goons and would be facing a firing squad by a fresh ditch.

Cut your hyperbolic ignorant bs line, Clyburn, and cease your adolescent utterances and act like an adult.
