“Violence is not our game,” Clyburn told Cavuto. “That’s the President’s game.”
“The only time I saw violence in Washington, DC, was those horseback riders driving people off the streets,” he declared. “That’s when I saw it.”
“It’s [President Trump’s] game,” Clyburn added. “That’s not our game and we’ll not play his game.” Video Below
