Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) falsely claimed that Republican front-runner Donald J. Trump was “closely” tied to the 2015 massacre of black churchgoers at a Charleston church.
With President Joe Biden's re-election strategy of stirring up racial resentment and promoting the “insurgency” hoax now exposed, one of his top allies appeared on CNN to blame the former president for the racist shooter's murderous actions Dylann Roof.
Sunday morning's edition of “The State of the Union” asked the South Carolina Democrat whether it was fair for Biden to link the shocking mass killing to Trump, which he will do Monday when he speaks at the crime scene in 'hate that struck. america

“What do you expect to hear from President Biden?” Tapper asked his guest. “And is it fair to somehow tie what happened at Emanuel AME Church to Donald Trump? Donald Trump had barely launched his campaign when that attack happened.”
“I think it's very clear that Donald Trump's statements back before Charlottesville, or around the time of Charlottesville, tie him to what happened to Mother Emanuel,” the congressman responded. “The fact is that that young man went into the basement of that church, joined those worshipers in the Bible study and murdered them. And he said at the time that he was trying to create a race war.”
“But the people of Charleston, South Carolina, the families of the affected victims came together to overcome the hate and help you continue this quest for a more perfect union,” he added. “Donald Trump looked at those people in Charlottesville and said there were good people on both sides, and those people were saying things like, Jews are not going to replace us. This is a religion.”
“The AME church, that Emmanuel, that is religion. And Donald Trump has said things in support of these activities. That ties it in closely with what happened to Mother Emanuel,” Clyburn said, also adding the lie by very good people “on both sides” that served Biden so well during the 2020 campaign.
Activist Tapper didn't bother to counter with the simple fact that Trump wasn't president when the heinous incident took place, Barack Obama with Joe Biden as his sidekick.
The so-called “fact checkers” couldn't be bothered to do their jobs, so the X-users did, calling BS on Clyburn's false incendiary claim.
To all my black american friends out there, don't fall for this kind of bs. The guilt playbook that hooks us and turns us on to vote Democrat has to stop.
Instead of goals or tangibles, Clyburn and his friends at CBC would rather call out racism than push any policy. https://t.co/3U3qbhbL8F

James Clyburn claims Trump is responsible for the Charleston church massacre in June 2015. How desperate and irresponsible is that? Sorry Rep. Clyburn, you can't spare Biden's bacon this time, especially with such misleading and nonsensical claims.

Clyburn is doing a comedy central comic to blame Trump for not even being in politics. Maybe the SC reporter should embarrass Clyburn and remind him that Obama was president when the Mother Emmaunel active shooter happened. https://t.co/iH5e2j9768

He knows. It has a purpose. Pin it all on Trump. Dems rely on uninformed voters.

Clyburn is a racist with seniority.

Trump should sue Clyburn for defamation.

Being desperate out there. Clyburn is on the record saying that Biden is stalling with African Americans.
I guess it's time to do some shit. https://t.co/0rAxrcZcEH

Biden, who lied to the American people when he promised to be a unifier, will rip off the scab from the still-healing wound with another foray into the shameful demagoguery that has marked his woeful tenure as the nation's leader as he follows to Clyburn with his own. he lies using Mother Emanuel Church as a bully pulpit.
