Jim Clyburn: Trump is Mussolini (and Hitler, too!)
Politico ^ | 8/02/20 | Zachary Warmbrodt

Posted on 08/02/2020 10:54:12 AM PDT by Libloather

House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn on Sunday likened President Donald Trump to Italian fascist dictator Benito Mussolini, warning that Trump would resist leaving office.

The South Carolina lawmaker and No. 3 House Democrat said on CNN's "State of the Union" that Trump has taken up "strong-arm tactics." Trump ignited an uproar last week after he floated the idea of delaying the November election, which he lacks the authority to do.

"I don't think he plans to leave the White House," Clyburn said of Trump. "He doesn't plan to have fair and unfettered elections. I believe that he plans to install himself in some kind of emergency way to continue to hold on to office."

Clyburn made the historical comparison to Mussolini after drawing attention for comments he made in a PBS interview released Friday comparing Trump to Adolf Hitler.

On Sunday, Clyburn said Trump was more akin to Mussolini and that Russian President Vladimir Putin "is Hitler." Mussolini's rule as Italian dictator lasted for two decades until he was deposed as Italy faced catastrophic defeat in World War II.

Clyburn is a major-league Clymer.

Dinesh does a good job unwinding why fascism is really a leftist thing and a mere adjustment on socialism/marxism.

Long but unlike many speakers ... Dinesh is good to listen too. Good stuff for next time you're liberal frenemy calls Trump a fascist. It's really just more projection.

This one is is funny because he argues that Bernie and Lizzy are too lazy to be socialists, because they'd actually have to run something :-)

But TRULY, if you haven't educated yourself on why fascism is a left not righty thing - you've only just kind of thought it deep down ... and since you can't read it in any books -> here it is.

The Dems are working overtime to create a constitutional crisis regarding election results. Mail in voting is voter fraud.

Let’s give Clyburn some credit here. At least he didn’t mention Tojo. But maybe that will come later.

Still waiting for Trump to say something like “God does not exist; religion in science is an absurdity, in practice an immorality and in men a disease!” (That’s an actual quote from Mussolini, when he was in power as a fascist; sounds just like communist rhetoric, doesn’t it.)

For Clyburn and most Democrats, dictator = person that won't allow Democrats to continue destroying this country.

We’ll know Clyburn is leaving office when they announce his funeral arrangements.

This world class IDIOT holds sway over the largest district in South Carolina, gerrymandered to insure a black voting majority. My house got moved into it overnight & I no longer had a Republican representative.

Mussolini and Hitler, too? That means Trump will force Clyburn to drink castor oil before he ships him to Auschwitz.

He’s Mussolini!!

And yet no one is afraid of him. He has yet to arrest any of his enemies. And the mobs running up and down the street setting the town on fire are not his mobs.

We know with absolute certainty that the democrat party is planningplan to have unfair and fettered elections. They have said so. They have set it in motion mail in ballots signed by the pet dog.
What ever they blame on Trump is precisely what they are guilty of.
Put Pelosi, Schumer, and Fauci together and you have the making of the Third Reich High Command.

This is just more of the usual Dem tactic ... projection. I accuse you of doing exactly what I am doing.

Clyburn is the Lord Haw Haw of the Dem party.
