James Carville: Melania Hit Was Inside Job
Newsmax ^ | 19 Jul 2016 | Greg Richter

Posted on 07/21/2016 3:25:24 AM PDT by detective

The words lifted from Michelle Obama's 2008 speech that were included in Melania Trump's speech at Monday night's Republican National Convention were an inside job intended to hurt GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump, says Democratic operative James Carville.

"I think they were done in," Carville said Tuesday on the "The Mike Lupica Podcast."

Carville said it is only a theory, but he has run it by five or six people experienced in national politics, and "no one says this is nuts."

Carville is not the most honest person in the world but he does understand how Clinton and the Democrats operate.

I wish the conservative press would stop perpetuating the story. They shouls be focusing on the excellent speeches from Trump’s kids, Newt, Christie, etc.

Many of us get wrapped up in Trump’s ‘build the wall’ stuff but we shouldn’t forget his liberal tendencies. Therefore, he is surrounded by liberals who can turn out to be suicide bombers (figuratively) in Reptillary’s army. Let’s hope he learns from this experience.

That’s what I said yesterday. The exact phrases AND the rickroll together convinced me.

The campaign should publicly let it go, privately search and destroy.

But also the family is ultimately responsible.

How could this get by them? Gotta be more careful and recognize what they’re up against.

One thing that bothers Republicans is the naivete of the Trump campaign. Dirty tricks are only unethical and avoided in business. Dirty tricks are common in politics.

Dirty tricks are also common in international relations. Trump team seems to play by the more ethical rules of business.

Trump team knows in a vague way about dirty tricks. But they dont seem to be aware of the common details of dirty tricks.

I hope Trump gets up to speed before he is president.

If this is true expect Trump’s scorched earth campaign to get even hotter. Hillary is a slow learner.

I’ve heard Rush talk about Carville in positive terms. Rush says JC is intelligent and respected in political circles with good instincts.

I don’t know if all this is true or not, but to be fair, many on FR said the same thing long before Carville did. Maybe he’s not the only one with good instincts.

Good Lord.

It was jsut the Media Death Star, doing what it always does.

They did the same thing to Palin, only it was daily till the 2008 election, after she got the VP nomination.

The Media Death Star has A LOT to answer for, now that they made a big deal out of this nothingburger, while doing the "nothing to see here" out of Hillary Clinton's treasonous multiple felonies.

Maybe James is a closet Freeper.

By the way, has anyone notice how his wife's appearance has morphed and now she looks like she could be his twin sister?

Okay, I looked.

I saw one picture where they are both dressed like they’re giving awards at the Grammy’s or something.

Seems that you’re right.

And I’m sorry I took the bait to look!
