Democratic strategist James Carville during a Thursday podcast advised Vice President Kamala Harris to use pre-planned queries during her public speaking engagements.
Harris has mostly stuck to prepared remarks since launching her campaign on July 21, giving just one sit-down interview and participating in a single presidential debate. Carville, on “Conversations with Bill Kristol,” suggested Harris field a mix of “planted” and unrehearsed questions to appear more impressive, without making it obvious she has prepared for some of the queries.
“She could do a China speech, alright, and talk about how it’s an adversary but not an enemy, you know, there’s the standard foreign policy, Foreign Affairs magazine. But you can do that and it’s got to be covered,” Carville said. “And it will and she can make news like that. She can do new economic stuff, she can talk about how tariffs have a very checkered history of doing any good.”
“I mean, there’s a thousand things that she can do and she can actually take five or six questions, of which you can plant, two … You can’t plant all the questions, because it’ll be evident that they were planted,” he added. “But you can say, ‘Mr. Kristol, you in the back. Oh, gee, I’m glad you asked that question, I hadn’t thought about it ’til right now, but blah blah blah. Well God, she’s pretty good on her feet. Bill Kristol asked her a question and she hadn’t thought about it,’ and of course, [she] had thought about it for five hours.”

It’s hard to believe this guy gets big consulting money.
Why not? We all know that the Ho got the “Debate” questions ahead of time. It has already been admitted that the loathsome Hillabeast got questions ahead of time, and even she is smarter than the Ho. Way, way smarter, and the beast still needed help. DemocRATz always need to cheat.
Right. She wouldn’t be scripted and told answers in advance.
It’s easy to throw out ideas like that for free in normal conversation but if he was getting paid (well) for that advice, how would he be able to sleep at night doing that crappy a job as a professional?
This is just sad. I mean, come on, this is for the president of the United States.
Confession that dems can only win when they cheat.
She had the questions before the debate.
They are waaay ahead of you, Carville. Planted questions are the only type allowed.
Joe the Plumber may have been the last American to ask a Democrat presidential candidate an unscripted question.
But apparently, he didn’t get a big consulting check from Kamala.
Is the purpose of Carville’s little speech to suggest that some of the Q&A was spontaneous? Only reason I can think of for what he said. But she can’t take even 3 unrehearsed questions. What I would ask is, why do so many of your former staff question your management skills?
Some people need to go off and die somewhere.
Cretin.
The Gargoyle is really worried about Camel Hairs ... he has been so frightened that he is making suggestions every day.
Good point. That makes more sense- he is just creating a headfake.
If you were to ask your question, I guarantee her answer would start like almost all her others: “So...here’s the thing:”.
His face would fit in on the cover of the National Enquirer.
