House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.) said in an interview that he is worried about losing the House in 2022 and “losing this democracy,” saying that is the reason why he is pushing so much for Democrats’ voting rights legislation.

“I'm worried about losing the House. I'm worried about losing this democracy. That's why I'm fighting as hard as I can for this voting rights bill, because we are teetering on the edge of losing this democracy,” Clyburn told Greta Van Susteren in an interview to be aired on Sunday.

Single Party Rule is what he is afraid of losing.

The bastard belongs in Red China.

The United States is NOT a democracy. Our government is a Constitutional Republic.

Clyburn is pure disinformation.

If the electorate really knew him there would be a democratic tidal wave sweeping him away.

The piece of shit has an IQ of about room temperature, like most Democrats. He doesn’t even know what the word ‘democracy’ means. He’s one of the few people that I would be glad to piss on his grave when he dies - which can’t happen soon enough.

Once you realize that “Our Democracy” is a synonym for “Their power” all these phrases about “Losing our Democracy” make sense.

“Our” is their political party, not you or I.
“Democracy” is their rule, not the people’s liberty.

It’s code for “This is our club, you are not in it - Screw you”

Of course they are concerned with “Losing our Democracy”. The people should see that it becomes a reality.

They’re preparing the battlefield. If the Republicans take the house in November, they want that republican majority to be seen and treated, in as many venues as possible, as a bunch of white supremicists and anything they do as dishonest and fascist. Thwy want the American public to turn them off whenever a republican is speaking, and see defiance and disrespect of anything a republican does as virtue.

It’s like Hirohito’s ministers telling the Japanese people that the American soldiers were going to rape their women and drink the blood of their children.

If this scorched earth tactic scares Democrat voters to the polls and they maintain the majority, even better because now they can outright ignore the Republicans and kick then off committees whenever they want.

“Democracy” must mean something evil (to us) in Libspeak.

Our nation is not a democracy. Do those idiots not know this?

California enacted “voting rights” a generation ago and is now a 1-party state. A Marxist Utopia.

We need to lose this “democracy”
It is exactly what the founders feared and, therefore, created a Constitutional Republic...

We are not, nor have ever been a democracy. We are a Representative Republic.

Minorities don’t fare well in democracies. They do a lot better in a republic.

Millions of American patriots are praying that the Dems lose their “democracy.” It is our fervent prayer that constitutional government be reestablished.
