Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) knows Democrats have been divided over President Joe Biden’s withdrawal and Vice President Kamala Harris’s rapid ascension to the top of the Democratic presidential ticket.
His solution? Democrats need to “have a lovefest” at the Democratic National Convention to solve their unity problems.
Democrats “need to go into Chicago together. Go there, have a lovefest, hold ourselves out to the American people as someone who knows how to get along with each other,” Clyburn said.
Clyburn told Axios that a party doesn’t win when it looks like it’s in “disarray.” The South Carolina representative, a prominent Democratic leader in the House and a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, thinks a divided party is a losing dynamic.
“A big argument on the [convention] floor, do that for four days … and then go out to the American people and say, ‘I’m ready to bring the country together, though I couldn’t get together at my convention,” Clyburn said.
