Carville Defends Lincoln Project — Tiki-Torch Stunt ‘Was to Illustrate a Point’
breitbart ^ | 30 Oct 2021 | JEFF POOR

Posted on 10/31/2021 12:53:52 PM PDT by MarvinStinson

Democrat strategist James Carville defended The Lincoln Project Friday on CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” for their so-called tiki-torch stunt, which Carville claimed was done to illustrate a point about Virginia Republican gubernatorial nominee Glenn Youngkin.

According to Carville, Youngkin had not been vocal about President Donald Trump’s remarks about the 2017 Charlottesville, VA incident.

“Well, let me — first of all, The Lincoln Project is independent of the Democratic Party of Virginia,” Carville declared. “I happen to know the chairwoman very, very well. And I kind of agree with what Stuart said. It was to illustrate a point that Youngkin has not denounced Trump, saying ‘There were fine people on both sides,’ in Charlottesville. I think this is a kind of a 10% of teapot like that. But, Terry’s campaigned hard. He’s raised a lot of money. And it’s just a tight election. And traditionally, only one time since 1965, where we follow a presidential election, heads the party that won the presidency, won the Virginia governorship. And that was in 2013.”

“So, that – it’s a race. Virginia is a state that Democrats have done considerably better in,” he added. “But this is a tough cycle that we’re in right now. And hopefully, we can win this. Well, some people think we got to do a slight favoring up. Myself, I’m too nervous to think right now.”

Well, what if we got a few college students to dress as Chinese and Soviet revolutionaries and start singing worker’s praises in front of McAuliffe’s bus?

It proves a point, no?

There are so many racist Republicans that the Democrats have to manufacture them.

Using that same broken logic, Carvelle is a rapist supporter. He supports rapists in public schools.

The point is that the Democrats could not find any racist tiki torch bearing monsters in the Republican party, so they had to bring in a few of their own.

It was to illustrate a point that Youngkin has not denounced Trump, saying ‘There were fine people on both sides,’ in Charlottesville.

Just can't stop lying, can you, Jimmy? Here are Trump's relevant comments from the Charlottesville news conference, as transcribed by the leftist Los Angeles Times on Aug. 15, 2017:

QUESTION: (inaudible) started this (inaudible) Charlottesville. They showed up in Charlottesville to protest…

TRUMP: Excuse me, excuse me. (inaudible) themselves (inaudible) and you have some very bad people in that group. But you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides. You had people in that group -- excuse me, excuse me -- I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name.

QUESTION: George Washington and Robert E. Lee are not the same (inaudible)…

TRUMP: George Washington was a slave owner. Was George Washington a slave owner? So, will George Washington now lose his status? Are we going to take down -- excuse me -- are we going to take down -- are we going to take down statues to George Washington?

TRUMP: How about Thomas Jefferson? What do you think of Thomas Jefferson? You like him?

TRUMP: OK. Good. Are we going to take down the statue? Because he was a major slave owner. Now, are we going to take down his statue? So you know what? It’s fine. You’re changing history. You’re changing culture. And you had people, and I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally. But you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists. OK? And the press has treated them absolutely unfairly. Now, in the other group also, you had some fine people, but you also had troublemakers and you see them come with the black outfits and with the helmets and with the baseball bats. You’ve got -- you had a lot of bad -- you had a lot of bad people in the other group…

Leftists in 2021 still believe that Trump's answers above proved that he supported white supremacism and approved of the Charlottesville violence. Dishonest to the core.

Illustrated that Democrats can still drag a $100 bill through a trailer park and we’re surprised at what turns up.

The Democratic Operative Who Claimed Credit for Staging Youngkin ‘White Supremacist’ Stunt Took Selfie with Race Hoaxer

If Youngkin hired a group of blacks and black block types to stage a riot, loot, and burn a building while waiving signs for McAuliffe, he’d approve of that because it illustrated a point?

How is it possible that his Republican wife, Mary Matalin, has been with Carvile for decades. I don’t get it.

Something I’ve said before but it’s worth repeating. If the purpose of the fake white supremacists was to make a point, they would have told the reporter “We’re here to prove Younkin’s supporters are Nazis” instead of saying “We’re all in for Glen”. And they would have immediately had a press release ready to go instead of waiting for many hours.

This was a hoax. The only reason why the Lincoln Project is claiming credit is because other people debunked the hoax. Until then they were the ones promoting the hoax as real. And even so, the Lincoln Project is allowing the media to blame the Republicans (i.e. the Lincoln Project) even though every person in the photo was a Democrat operative.

Carville is a very dishonest and very corrupt person. I always wondered how Mary could marry such a lowlife.
