Carville: Democrats Could Learn A Lot About Never Trump Republicans, "We Don't Fight Like That"
RCP video ^ | 5-6-2020 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 05/07/2020 4:22:48 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

James Carville on Wednesday thanked "neocons" and praised the anti-Trump Lincoln Group for their attack ad "Mourning in America" that takes aim at the Trump administration's response to the coronavirus pandemic. Carville told MSNBC host Brian Williams that Democrats could learn from Never Trumper Republicans.

The Democratic operative also praised "The Bulwark," a website founded by Weekly Standard founder Bill Kristol for being mean and fighting hard. Kristol, one of the most vocal proponents of the Iraq War and War in Afghanistan, is one of the most visible faces in the Never Trump coalition.

The Lincoln Project was founded by George Conway, Steve Schmidt, John Weaver, Rick Wilson and its founding goal is to prevent a Trump second term. ...

"Let me tell you, the Lincoln group and the Bulwark, these Never Trumper Republicans, the Democrats could learn a lot from them. They're mean. They fight hard. And we don't fight like that. They don't fight like that," Carville said on MSNBC.

"The way that you run a presidential campaign is you're a pirate ship. You're always calculating. You're always taking wind speed and direction. You seize and you loot and you burn. And that's just the way it is," he said about taking on Trump Republicans.

(snip)

"It don't matter if the Dow is 35,000, he's not going to win," he said. "He wasn't going to win when unemployment was 3.5%. He's certainly not going to win now. But the idea is not just to beat him. It is to end the scourge of Trumpism in this country forever. And we can do that. It's within our grasp right now.

As Kurt Schlichter would say about the pirate ship (cruise ship) team, “Ahoy!”

Carville, you are a public disgrace. Just another blowhard. Go do another palmface with an egg in your palm.

The enemy of my enemy is my enemy’s enemy. I’d have to be a fool to believe him anything more.

Translated: We need to kill Trump supporters. Thanks for letting us know Carville. I've told people repeatedly you folks want to kill us, you're just waiting for the opportunity.

Serpent head is angling for Joey Fingers campaign manager. That would be the easiest consulting job he ever had. If he loses well he was supposed to lose. If he wins he goes down as the GOAT consultant.

>>> The enemy of my enemy is my enemy’s enemy.

Is that a traditional wisdom from the Scots? Or is it specifically from Hugh the Scot?

Very wise, indeed.

NeverTrump Republicans want to take the party back to the good old days of importing cheap labor and turning the USA into North Mexico.

Flimsey Grahamnesty and Micro Rubio are STILL working on amnesty and a permanent majority for Democrats even as they fake support for President Trump.

The attempted coup was but the last crimes of the biggest scandal in American history, the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

Both parties cooperated to violate the Constitution, that’s why nothing will be done about it.

“”We Don’t Fight Like That”” Correct. MUCH nastier subterfuge.

RINOs only fight dirty against Conservative Republicans. Never against their fellow Demonrats.

Also backing a rat Senate, attacking McSally in AZ.

So their goal seems to be 40 year commies replacing Ginsberg, Breyer, and Thomas. Should be called the John Wilkes Booth project.

Kristol formally became a Democrat (according to his tax filing, search Kristol and democrat).

Democrats can have the bitchy loser... glad he out of our party.

Never Trumpers are a hated 5% of the GOP... If democrats became a hated 5% of the voting public we’d like that too...
