Wednesday on MSNBC, Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) said presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trumps claim of being the law and order candidate was a dog whistle to white supremacists.
Clyburn said, Mr. Trump needs to get serious about this issue and stop making light of it. No system is rigged against him because of his skin color. Thats what race is all about. We must be serious about that, have a conversation with each other about that and see what we can do to solve this problem. And not hide behind what may or may not have happened to you as a person because of some ordinances affecting your investments or how much taxes you pay, if at all.
He added, When I heard Mr. Trump several days ago saying that, I am the law and order candidate, that, to me, was more a dog whistle. That, to me, was using the bull horn to send messages out to people. When I see an avowed white supremacist thanking Mr. Trump saying in those things, We get your hints, we understand what youre saying. This says to me that theres a lot going on in this campaign that we had better be conscious about because this country is too great a country for us to allow it to be pulled under with this strong current of what may be racial tensions. So I would say to Mr. Trump, lets have adult discussions about this very serious problem and not make it about any one of ourselves.

Clyburn is racist bomb-thrower looking for attention.
They need to redraw districts in SC and get rid of him.
I call him Clymer.
Can’t whites have their dog whistles, too?
Black Lives blows them non-stop. Some blow-back is to be expected.
From now on, everything Trump says including “good morning” is a dog whistle to white supremacists. Rachel Maddow and her ilk have nothing else to talk about.
We use ‘dog whistles’. The left, of course, uses Fog Horns.
“Law and Order Claim Was a Dog Whistle to White Supremacists”
So chaos and lawlessness is a black thing?
Major league Clyburn we’ve got here.
“Dog whistle” - When a non-lefty says something inspirational, and you don’t like it.
“Suck all the air out of the room” - When a non-lefty garners public attention, and you prove unable to thwart it.
Paul Ryan won’t be far behind agreeing about this
Nice try, Cluelessburn...
It’s not a “dog whistle”... It’s a bugle call to Americans who are sick of the bullsh*t from your stupid subversive socialist party.
And that includes people of ALL colors.
Who the heck started this dog whistle theme? Never heard of it till this year.
Trump IS NOT a racist. He expects everyone to reach for their full potential.
I’ve had enough of these brainless morons.
Clyburn needs to get right with The Law(s) ...... of Physics...
“micro-aggression” - the term supports allegations of mistreatment of a member of an authorized aggrieved group by middle-class people, but which would escape the attention of any person gainfully employed. Also see “made-up sh*t”.
If it was a dog whistle, it means that it was against blacks.
In other words, Clyburn is stating out loud that blacks are against “law and order”.
I know someone that has a friend in Idaho, a ‘skin head’ and they are being quite...but don’t go to Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and start crap, you will see them then...
He said they want no part of any of this, but will not back down if it comes to them...
So Clyburn is blowing smoke as always...
Remember when the left claimed that mentions of GOLF in an Obama-related context was a dog-whistle...?
They actually made that claim.
Just say GOLF, and you’re in the KKK, apparently.
Did you know?
