PJM: As the Super Tuesday II results began to trickle in, House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.) told NPR that the Democratic National Committee should “shut this primary down” and even cancel debates if former Vice President Joe Biden won big that evening and became the “prohibitive nominee.” He went on to suggest that the party needs to cancel the primary in order to protect Joe Biden from himself.
“I think when the night is over, Joe Biden will be the prohibitive favorite to win the Democratic nomination, and quite frankly, if the night ends the way it has begun, I think it is time for us to shut this primary down, it is time for us to cancel the rest of these debates — because you don’t do anything but get yourself in trouble if you continue in this contest when it’s obvious that the numbers will not shake out for you,” Clyburn told NPR.
Clyburn endorsed Biden shortly before the former VP’s big win in the South Carolina primary. Biden’s win in that primary helped turn his campaign around, reassuring black voters (in particular) that the former VP was electable. That victory set up the long slew of endorsements that led to wins on Super Tuesday and Super Tuesday II. When Biden defeated Sen. Bernie Sanders (S-USSR) last night in Michigan — a state Sanders won against Hillary Clinton in 2016 — he arguably did become the presumptive nominee. read more
If the obama-scam wasn’t enough, they’re trying to jam the biden-scam down our throats.
Our country is completely corrupt. We have to keep up the fight as stong as ever.
Prohibitive???
Americans have the right to vote, even if they are as stupid as you,
The Bernie Bros should love this.
Or maybe not.
He knows Slo Joe is going to say more stupid shit, and maybe this time to somebody who’s going to call his bluff, and knock his dentures down his throat.
Kinda hard to make campaign speeches when your jaw is wired shut.
Geeeeezus… Back to back posts about scumbags from SC
First it was 2.Zero, now we get this gem from Fish-eye Clyburn.
Please BFH, don’t post a Trey Gowdy article next. LOL
Joe won’t ever overcome his stupidity. it just gets worse each year. He just run-off his mouth when he is not drooling,
The Democrats can run a monkey for President since they must have Deep State control of the Presidency anyway.
The good news is that we won’t have to ‘nuke it (D.C.) from orbit’ anymore.
Since it’s nuking itself right now.
Rules? We don’t need no stinkin rules. We make em up as we need em.
The commiecrats have their sights on the constitution as soon as they get the power.
Gosh Wally, I’d a thought Clyburn would have tought old, Black Joe the song: “We Shall Overcome”!
Let the CHAOS reign (with the democraps)!
Go, DERP, Go!!! 😆
First they brought us Bill Clinton.
Now they’re bringing us Joe Biden.
Does that make Crazy Uncle Joe the second, or third, “black” President?
“…because you don’t do anything but get yourself in trouble if you continue in this contest…”
Sounds like he’s threatening Bernie to me.

“Prohibitive???”
…yes, seemed strange to me, too. He Keeps Using That Word, I Do Not Think It Means What He Think It Means…
Democrats against democracy.
We can’t let the people vote, it might not shake out like we think it will.
They have refused to recognize the results of every election they haven’t won since 2000 by my recollection which is fundamentally damaging to our form of government.
It’s always the NRA or Russians. It’s never “half the country hates your fucking guts”.

We need to update/modify some acronyms. For starters:
DNC → ADNC = Anti-Democratic National Conspiracy
They will run any drooling fool and do anything to get
him elected no matter what to get back into power.
