Longtime Democratic strategist James Carville mocked former President Donald Trump for dodging a scheduled debate with his 2024 election rival, Vice President Kamala Harris.
The GOP nominee is “scared to debate a girl,” Carville taunted Trump on his Politicon show. Trump is “shitting in his pants because, as we pointed out before, all he does is shit and fart in his pants, and the whole thing is deteriorating, going to nothing,” Carville added.
Watch from the 5-minute mark here:
Trump over the weekend bailed on ABC News’ Sept. 10 debate, which he’d originally agreed to participate in with President Joe Biden. Trump said he now wants to go head-to-head with Harris on Fox News instead. Harris’ campaign hasn’t responded to the demand.
Carville later urged Harris to actually accept Trump’s Fox News debate plea and suggested it be held in New York City on Sept. 18.
“I think we should be gracious to former President Trump. He’s old, and he’s kind of losing it, but I happen to know he’s going to be in Manhattan on September 18th,” he explained. “Well, James, how do you know that? Because that’s the day he sentences his fat ass.” Trump will be sentenced that day after being found guilty on all 34 counts in his hush money trial.
“So, tell Fox you’ll be glad,” he urged Harris’ campaign. “You’ll show up in Manhattan. They got a studio there. I’ve been in it before, and we’ll have the debate on Fox on the night of Sept. 18th. That’s what we should do. I’ll be checking back with you.”
