Patience will ultimately be a virtue for Democrats when it comes to dealing with President Donald Trump, argued longtime Democratic strategist James Carville.
Democrats must learn to let the returning POTUS “beat himself out,” Carville told guest host Katie Phang on Friday's broadcast of MSNBC's “The Beat.”
“Remember Muhammad Ali and his rope-a-dope?” Carville asked, referring to the late, legendary boxer's tactic of taking punches to wear down his opponent before delivering a devastating response.
Ali would “just be at it for the first six or seven rounds and then you come in and measure and then you start launching bombs,” Carville said.
It is “It's hard to sit here and just watch” as Trump floods the zone, but “you've just got to keep bobbing and weaving, bobbing and weaving and then, in due time, you'll be able to get in,” said Carville.
