SC Congressman Clyburn Speaks out Against Trump

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) – South Carolina’s only congressional Democrat says his Republican colleagues should denounce what he called “hateful rhetoric” by Donald Trump.
U.S. Rep. Jim Clyburn said Tuesday during a press call organized by the Hillary Clinton campaign that House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell should “disavow the kind of hateful rhetoric that we’re hearing” from the Republican nominee.
Clyburn also said a tweet by a black Trump supporter showing Clinton in black face “went beyond the pale.”
Clyburn was referencing Pastor Mark Burns’ posting implying Clinton panders to black voters. The South Carolina pastor has since apologized and said he should’ve used “better judgment.”
Clyburn also says Trump should not turn down invitations to speak to groups like the NAACP if he’s serious about courting black voters.
