of this broadcast james carville, he rose to fame with the clinton presidential effort and cohost of the politics war room podcast mark mckinnon, he is among the cohost of the circus on showtime sunday night, which we may mention later in this segment. mark, i would like to begin with you, with something out of political, we have heard shades of this before, but here it is. then attorney general bill barr had a come to jesus meeting with former president donald trump in april 2020, which bar dish out political advice to him because he was worried trump was slated to lose the election. he told him the election was about the suburbs where he had to do a charm offensive and he had to do some repair work among republicans and independents voters who liked his policies but not his personality. they just think you re an
effing a whole barr told trump. mark, what is the chance that barr having worked so diligently to sully his reputation in the law looking for work as a political analyst? it s a pretty straight talk advised there that the president didn t take. when you lose a presidential election and you do an autopsy to realize how to do things differently the next time around, this president, it s one of the only presidents to lose a presidency and the senate and the house. so whatever republicans do, let s go to that guy, that s where the strategy is, and then you get news alike he voted for impeachment and trump has come after him and it is clear that there is no room for anybody that doesn t believe in the big line believe in donald trump. james carville, pennsylvania s republican state
race being closely watched as we like to say, to be honest, because we like declaring a race as the next bell weather. for the next election, and there s always a next election. tonight the former governor, was running again. the democratic terry mccaul. and faced off against trump endorsed, glen duncan. and the first of two debates ahead of the november 2nd election. still with us our friends james carville, and mark mckinnon. james you know the political situation in person yet very well. i will ask you where you put this race, and ask you further, what are if any, the national lesson for democrats in california? well the real, as of now, we are not looking as of 2010 2014. the turnout that s where the
no. i would say, andrea, i pointed that out, too and the mitch daniels people corrected me to say he has said nice things about scott walker. but to your point, not following his lead. if mitch daniels runs, we saw this in a political speech, he s going to run a little bit nontraditionally. he s going to run as the sober speaking truth to power, this debt is out of çcontrol. he s not going to run as red meat republican, you know, throwing kind of talking points out there. he s going to run as a serious, sober person for office. i don t know whether that can win a republican presidential primary, particularly with an electorate that s angry with the president, but if he runs that s how he s going to run. not as a confrontational person as someone who will say we both have to sacrifice and come to an agreement in the end which, frankly, sounds like the rhetoric that barack obama is using since the november 2nd election. and mike huckabee having fun
