As if the nation wasn’t already incensed enough about the unprecedented FBI raid on Donald Trump’s estate at Mar-a-Lago, one Democratic strategist is now threatening a great deal more targeting of the presumptive GOP nominee for 2024.
The raid, which the former President has repeatedly decried as a political stunt meant to harm his electoral future, infuriated Americans. They saw the event as a bold overreach of the current administration and feared what it could mean for our already fraught political divisions.
The Rajun Cajun James Carville is now suggesting that we ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
Democratic strategist James Carville has a message for people doubting Merrick Garland: Just wait. Even if he didn’t have faith in Garland, Trump and the MAGA Republicans are not doing themselves any favors, Carville says.
“People are like, well, but let’s wait and see a little bit. And this is like the top of the first inning. I mean, remember, Merrick Garland is like a pit viper. He prosecuted the Oklahoma City bomber case, the Unabomber case, and the Olympic bomber case. And I think these guys are really methodical,” Carville says on this episode of The New Abnormal politics podcast.
Carville then made a rather bold assumption.
“Their defenses are just literally absurd. I mean, absurd. Like ‘he can declassify anything he wants,’ says Carville. Plus, “you ask ‘Why did Trump want all these documents?’ And the answer is the most logical reason: He was gonna sell them.”
Donald Trump has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in the matter and has not been charged with any crime.
