According to Democratic strategist James Carville, certain Democrats are reportedly too preoccupied with with re-litigating the events of January 6th, 2021.
On Wednesday, Carville and Matt Tyrnauer, director of Carville: Winning Is Everything!, appeared on Morning Joe.
Carville advised Democrats to “sell harder” and focus on the present as co-host Mika Brzezinski criticized supporters of former President Donald Trump for their unwillingness to embrace so-called “facts.”
Rather than discussing the Jan. 6 Capitol disturbance or the 2020 presidential election, Carville contended that Democrats should be criticizing Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance for asserting that Trump saved Obamacare, when repealing the law was a fundamental component of the former president’s campaign agenda.
Carville also advocated for the increased presence of former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama on the campaign trail, which aided in the sale of the party’s ticket and the criticism of the Republican ticket for its more recent actions and statements.
“They need to sell harder. We need to really sell because you’ve got all of this disinformation, you’re correct, and they’ve got to selectively pick out what it is that they want to talk about. We’ve talked about January 6th ad infinitum, ad nauseam. We’ve been talking about who won the election. Leave it alone. Bo to JD Vance’s massive lie on health care. Have Bill Clinton go do actualities in every market, in every swing state. Have Obama come out and say, how dare he say this about our healthcare plan.” Carville said.
“I think the Liz Cheney, the Dick Cheney stuff, all these national security people coming out, I think that helps. I really do.” he concluded.
