Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) made a small error when he tried to explain why the Democrats are so unpopular right now. They”re faced polls with their approval numbers in the 20s.
Clyburn said the quiet part out loud. It wasn’t the Democrats’ lousy message that was the problem, it was the media:
In an interview Friday on MSNBC’s The Last Word, Clyburn claimed the media was distorting political narratives– and that Dems are losing ground not because of the exceedingly leftward tilt of their message – but because the press isn’t properly telling its story.
“I think the message coming from the Democratic Party is a good message,” Clyburn said.
“The problem we’ve got is that we have to depend upon the media to deliver it.”
Wait, what? Did you just confess that the media delivers your message for you? And now you’re mad because you don’t think…
