James Carville warns Democrats keeping Biden in the race is 'exactly what Trump wants us to do'

James Carville, a veteran Democratic campaign strategist, warned Friday that sticking with President Biden is exactly what former President Trump wants.

MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell noted that Carville seeks to have former presidents Obama and Clinton moderate town halls to discern who can replace Biden as the nominee. The host then asked, "Is that the recipe for chaos?"

"You know, it might be chaos. [But] I tell you, what we are doing right now, we’re doing exactly what Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago wants us to do," Carville said, referencing a report that the Trump campaign wants to face Biden.

"If the Democratic Party is hellbent on pleasing Donald Trump, then go ahead and [run Biden]. It’s just that simple," he said.

Carville then slammed "Washington-types" he says quibble with the details about his idea for town halls to find a new candidate, "Well, I don’t care, do something! Don’t just stand there!"

"The details are, we are on track to lose an election to a major criminal who is going to destroy the western alliance, the constitution and everything in between. So we ought to act like it," he argued.
