James Carville lays out path for ‘underdog’ Harris to beat Trump

Democratic political pundit James Carville laid out what he believes are three steps Vice President Kamala Harris needs to take to secure a win this November. 

Carville said former President Donald Trump has been the most recognizable figure in politics “since he moseyed down that golden escalator in 2015” in an op-ed published in the New York Times. Despite his and other Democrats’ frustration with Trump’s all-encompassing presence, Carville argued it offers Harris the clearest path to victory because she is still relatively unknown and can be viewed as the “change” candidate.
