Carville: I Would Bet Trump Is a 'No-Show' for the Debate
2024-06-20
[BREITBART] Democratic strategist James Carville said Monday on MSNBC’s "The Beat" that he does not believe former President Donald Trump
...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US...
will attend the presidential debate scheduled for June 27 on CNN
...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for...
Host Ari Melber said, "When you look at these debates, this is next week, so people who don’t follow as closely as news viewers, they’re going to realize, here’s the debate. I wanted to mention for folks, the new rule, next week, it will be different. No opening statements, two minutes to answer each questions, red lights visible when time expires. In a big win for the Biden campaign given Trump is a rule breaker, the other candidate who’s not speaking will be muted when it’s not their turn."

Carville said, "Well, if I was a gambler — and actually, I am a gambler — I’d take even money that Trump doesn’t show up."
Snakehead misspelled "Biden"
Melber said, "Ha. You don’t think Trump’s coming next week?"

Carville said, "I mean, I don’t know, but I think he’s gonna wake up and decide. Just like he said he was gonna testify at his defense in his trial. He didn’t even put on a defense. Let him show up. I wouldn’t be shocked, but I certainly would not be surprised if you gave me even money, I’d say he’s a no-show."

#8  I missed the Obama Clooney Variety Hour, anything interesting happen?

#7  The scenario that I think will happen is that Trump will make a statement about Hunter’s conviction. Joe will throw a hissy and back out. That said, I think the debate happens.

Joe really really needs the debate to stop the bleeding of his poll numbers. Trump could easily make this the kill shot for Joe if Donald can remain composed and Joe drops into gibberish or is crazy aggressive.

#6  I'm convinced Obama and the Cabal that has been the actual force behind most impactful decisions of the Puppet Show have been trying to get the Biden family and Kamala to willingly step aside for some time. Kamala refuses since she is certain she has a window of opportunity to assume the Presidency in the near future, pre or post election. Joe is delusional and vicious when aware of being contradicted or criticised. Jill/Hunter, Jim/Frank, and family members love the perks and power, and know serious criminal prosecutions and ruin await any exit unless pardons and futures are assured. Collectively they are intransigent.

Since the deal-making to remove their death-grip from power has become too hard, I believe Obama et al are just going to let the debate debacle happen, destroying the last fig-leaf of denial about how far-gone Joe actually is now. The depth of the failure will serve to unite every element of the largely fractured democrap base in fear of a massive tidal wave of Trumpian power.

Then the "rescue" to "save democracy" is revealed at the bogus convention kabuki theater and the hype of the "Save American Democracy Team" is revealed (actual players yet to be named, but new faces seem possible), with massive media spending, fueled by off-shore sources cloaked in dark-money gamesmanship, and every crooked trick the dems can pull in the two-month blitz that follows. It will be cutting edge emotional theater and packaging, no policy just endorphin soup in every serving by every delivery mechanism known to man.

#4  He is probably right. I could see Trump being arrested hours before for some made up charges just so he cant be there.

Now wondering, if the LSD's have an "accident" or more sudden Lawfare issues planned?

The majority of voting public has turned on the LSD's far-reaching National Socialist agenda and unconstitutional practices.

If Trump is allowed/able to rightfully take office, this time?
100's of Far Left in the DC Swamp and the Elitists, will face exposure for Treason/Subversion and civil rights violations.

They know Trump has the voter backing, to drain the DC Swamp of those with Anti-Constitutional agendas/practices, and it scares the crap out of them.
