While some of my more conservative friends don't like it, I have always been a fan of
James Carville .
Ideeply respect his service to our nation in the U.S. Marine Corps and admire the fact that
he got his degree from LSU at night while working during the day.
Ienjoy his political analysis because he has walked the walk quite successfully over the
years, and I especially like the fact that he had the good sense to marry Mary Matalin, a
woman I have crossed paths with politically over the years and consider to be an
exceptional strategist.

That is not to say that James can’t wildly miss the mark from time to time or have a liberal
prism distort his vision of the truth. As was – in my opinion – recently the case.
JAMES CARVILLE WARNS DEMOCRATIC PARTY SEEING ‘HORRIFYING’ NUMBERS
SHOWING LOSS OF YOUNG MINORITY VOTERS
Within the body of a video shown on RealClearPolitics and other sites, James lamented
the fact that: "Trump’s more ahead than he’s ever been… It’s going the wrong way. It’s not
working. Everything we’re throwing is spaghetti at a wall, and none of it is sticking, me
included."
Note to James: former President Trump is winning precisely because of what you and the
unhinged left are doing to him.
The illicit use of the DOJ, the Deep State, laughable "lawfare" charges brought by
unqualified partisan Democrats, raids on his home, and the non-stop airing of his trial by
the liberal networks is deeply unnerving millions of American voters who view this as a
brazen attempt by the Biden White House and its multiple powerful allies in and out of
government to force Biden’s political opponent off the ballot.
JAMES CARVILLE SLAMS WOKENESS PUSHED BY DEMOCRATS AS A ‘GIANT, STUPID
ARGUMENT,’ BLAMES ‘PREACHY FEMALES’
Does the word "un-American" mean anything to you, James?
Not only do millions of your fellow citizens view the "spaghetti" as un-American, but…
chilling. These voters are quickly connecting the "lawfare" and other partisan dots and
logically asking themselves: "If the forces from the left can do this to a former president
who is a billionaire, what would stop them from doing the same thing to me?"
One answer I can assure you many are coming up with is: " Trump can stop this from
happening to me."

The "spaghetti" you speak of James, is not only not working – as you correctly point out –
but is creating new Trump voters who may have been sitting out the election or leaning
toward Biden but are shocked by the Democrats push to seemingly "Get Trump" at any
cost. Even via totalitarian means.
The "spaghetti" being hurled by the Democrats – many times in a blind rage – is, as you
also point out, having the reverse effect in many cases. The main outcome I have
observed from people I have spoken with across the political spectrum has been framed
in a very telling question:
"Why are the Biden White House and its allies so afraid to face Trump at the ballot box in a
free, fair, and open election?"

Your "spaghetti" does not stick, James, because it is over-cooked, overheated rhetoric that
is insulting to the intelligence of the American people. As one of the best political
strategists in the world, surely you know that. There is absolutely no mystery here.
Take off the partisan blinders. Open your eyes and see the truth. It shall set you free.
