Presidential candidate Marianne Williamson heaped criticism on the fourth Democratic debate, saying President Trump will be reelected if the Democratic Party continues to use the same tactics against him.
“The Democratic Party is in such a state of denial, I’m afraid. There is no conversation of any depth or reality about what the president represents and what it’s going to take to defeat him,” Williamson warned on MSNBC. “This idea that we all just need to come together around the values. What, the values of healthcare? We’re forgetting who this man is. This president is not just a politician, he is a phenomenon. The Democrats are sharpening their knives and he will be bringing a gun to this battle.”
The author said Trump will be same person that he was when he first ran in 2016, but this time he will be “on steroids” because he has the benefit of being the incumbent and the “power of the Russians with him for all we know.”
Regarding what it will take to beat Trump in 2020, Williamson said, “Well, I’m doing it by having a completely different conversation. He is a reality show. I’m showing reality. And the Democratic establishment is just coming with the same sort of 20th century conversation. It didn’t excite people last time.”
Williamson, who did not qualify to appear on the debate stage, then questioned how compelling they were to the people who bothered to tune in. “Do you think those 14 million people thought that was a really exciting evening?” she asked.
“Why are making the Democratic debates everything? They are one thing, and they’re an important thing because of all the eyeballs, but I think if anything, there are a lot of Democrats who saw that debate the other night and going, ‘We might be in trouble here,'” she added.
Williamson said during a recent hot mic moment that she noticed conservatives are nicer to her than the Democrats, and that she understood why conservatives call liberals “godless.”
