Jim Clyburn urges Democrats to prioritize affordability over a third impeachment of President Trump
Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., stated that Democrats should focus on making life more affordable for Americans rather than prioritizing a third impeachment of President Trump if they win control of the House in the upcoming midterm elections. Clyburn argued that while he does not rule out impeachment, the primary focus should be on making housing, education, energy, and healthcare accessible for all citizens. This perspective is shared by other Democratic strategists who warn that focusing too heavily on impeachment could be a distraction from the core issues of affordability and high prices. While the administration announced the possibility of a third impeachment, some experts suggest that the votes may not be enough to actually remove President Trump from office. Clyburn also noted his past support for Justice Clarence Thomas, which he now admits was a mistake due to the unexpected way Thomas rebelled against his own background. Additionally, Clyburn expressed support for a proposed expansion of the Supreme Court to 13 justices.
