Trump Can Win If “He’s Treated Like a Normal Candidate”

Democratic political consultant James Carville expressed his concerns about the upcoming presidential election, describing it as “not a normal election” and expressing fear that Donald Trump could win. Carville criticized what he perceived as a “massive effort” to normalize Trump’s candidacy, asserting that Trump should not be treated as a normal candidate.

In a recent interview on MSNBC, Carville compared Trump to World War II Nazi military leader Hermann Goering, emphasizing the need to avoid treating Trump as a regular candidate. Carville warned that there is a chance for Trump to win, urging the media to cover him more critically and portray him as a “wretched human being.”

Carville suggested that major media outlets, including The New York Times, should continually remind the public of allegations against Trump, referencing a specific case where Trump was accused of sexual abuse. He emphasized the importance of portraying Trump negatively to prevent his normalization.

Despite Carville’s background in attacking Republican opponents as a political consultant, he acknowledged the formidable nature of Trump’s campaign and expressed concern about the potential success of attacks from the left.

The article concludes by highlighting the challenges faced by the Democratic Party, particularly with Joe Biden’s perceived shortcomings and the continuous focus on Trump by Democratic politicians and influencers. It questions whether the Democrats’ strategy of attacking Trump will lead to a winning presidential campaign.
