He was acting like great friends as usual with Austin in the earlier in the day clip we saw, then went in and nominated him. It seems Austin had already agreed with James that his behaviour had been out of line and they had discussed it.

So if they had already discussed things, Austin had admitted when he had been in the wrong, they were getting on again, and James never knew that Austin was even going to see his nomination, then how was it all in his best interests or how was it going to teach Austin a lesson or done with the best interests to make him see his behaviour was so bad by taking such a big decision to nominate him when he thought that that Austin would never even see his nomination anyways and they were just carrying on as friends as usual?
James probably felt that being nominated might make Austin take ŕ step back and look at himself, irrelevant to who did the nominating. He obviously thought others would nom him as well for the way he has treated Janice.

Why wouldn't he carry on as normal? He doesn't dislike Austin, he dislikes how Austin behaves.
