GOP Rep. Chip Roy Exposes Dems For Refusing To Condemn Socialism & Opposing Pledge Of Allegiance

Republican Rep. Chip Roy of Texas blasted the Democrat Party after the House Rules Committee hearing refused to publicly decry socialism on Tuesday.

“When we offered a resolution saying that we stand to thwart socialism, there was complete opposition by my colleagues on the other side of the aisle,” he explained Wednesday morning.

The resolution was introduced by Republican Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar of Florida.

Rep. Roy was shocked that not a single Democrat on the committee would stand against socialism, saying, “I just want the American people to understand in the House Judiciary Committee we have opposition to pledging allegiance to the flag of the United States…”

“We have a Democratic Party that refuses to stand up and say they oppose socialism and fought it in the House Rules Committee – presumably will fight it on the House floor, we’ll see how the vote plays out – and that is the state of your Democratic Party today.”

On Tuesday, House Judiciary Committee Democratic roster ranking member Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) opposed Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) in pushing for an amendment that would have members cite the Pledge of Allegiance before Judiciary Committee meetings.

During Tuesday’s hearing on the resolution, Roy singled out one of the committee’s ranking members, Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters of California, over a quote she made 15 years ago.

Waters had said she’d be “all about socializing” and allowing the government to “take over” major companies.

She responded by claiming socialism isn’t a threat to the United States and saying, “I’m not a socialist, I’m a capitalist and I commit to you that I am here to save Social Security, to save Medicare, to save seniors and veterans and for some of you who have adopted certain kind of ways that you support what you now claim is socialism, I’m here to say to you, come on.”

The Democrats can’t even pretend they like America.
