Carville go back to bed. You’re old and worthless.
All of his predictions about Trump have been wrong. All of them.
He works for trump. His job is to convince folks everything won’t be that bad.
He’s a quisling
No, he’s a Blue Dog Democrat and operative of Clinton.
"Reaching across the aisle..."
Fuck that noise.
Same same
Cajun style!
Almost old enough to run for president
So why are we in this circular firing squad against Democrats?”
Because most of us aren't here to be Democrats, we're here to make the country a better place and some of the calls are coming from inside the house.
Because most of us aren’t here to be Democrats, we’re here to make the country a better place and some of the calls are coming from inside the house.
Alternatively, "because the Democratic leadership has consistently shown its failure to meet the moment and that fresh voices are needed. Furthermore, the leadership is failing to advocate for policies that have widespread support among Americans such as forcing the wealthy to pay what they owe in taxes and healthcare for all regardless of income level. Also y'all just too damn old."
What's wrong with facing a primary challenger? Every politician should have to truly face their base every election. It is the height of entitlement to view primary challenges as something worth bringing a civil suit over.
If Carville thinks the current crop of old guard democratic politicians are doing the right thing, what's to fear from a primary?
Holy crap is that transcript insane. The moment centrists are on the downswing Carville wants to split the vote. Also some nonsense about all employees having "a fiduciary duty to your employer".
And all this with disgraced anchor Chris Cuomo egging him on then at the last moment remembering he was supposed to pretend he was neutral.
I mean I already thought Hogg was an incredible person, but now that I know Carville hates him, I like him even more.
AGREED! WHY would we want Democratic Infighting when Their Strategy of DO LITERALLY NOTHING has been Working TREMENDOUSLY! Just LOOK at your ~~Stocks!~~ ~~Immigrant Neighbors!~~ ~~LGBT Neighbors!~~ Donations and see that you SHOULD donate to the DNC again!
Ha just what I was going to say. Carville wants to help create a schism in the Democratic party? Fine, they already can't get much less effective as a group anyway.
This guy is the face of centrism. centrism has the face it deserves.
Yeah something about surviving a school shooting galvanizes people to have strong opinions. Who knew? What’s your moral touchstone, Jimmy? Still looking? We’ll wait…
“We, as the DNC, need to be seen as a body that can be trusted, that’s not putting its thumb on the scales,” a DNC member told Politico. “We have to be so strategic and careful with our resources right now. ... So why are we in this circular firing squad against Democrats?”
Which side of the debate is this person trying to support?
If the DNC wants to be seen as trustworthy and not putting its thumb on the scales against its constituents economic interests, then it makes sense to try to repair the broken parts of the party that are largely seen as untrustworthy and favoring the donor class over the people who vote for Democrats.
So why are the corporate Dems shooting their own party in the foot by resisting changes to the failed status-quo?
Money.
Yeah right, they’ve never “put their thumbs on the scales”, lol. These people are as deluded as the Trump admin if they don’t think we’ve all seen what they’ve been doing. Do they think normal Americans, even Democrats give a shit about the DNC? Or that they have anything but contempt if they are aware of it?
Go retire James, nobody cares about you or your dynasty anymore
So why are we in this circular firing squad against Democrats?”
That's easy, some Democrats have enabled Trump & his fascists. They need to lose their seats to better Democrats.
So why are we in this circular firing squad against Democrats?
Because Hogg is right that you're ineffective, lazy, speed bumps to actually making progress and winning elections at every level.
Oh and let's not forget that these fuckers were no where to be heard from when people like Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman were primaried and heavily funded by Democrat organizations associate with leadership.
Carville just needs to fuck off all the way to the grave. He's much of the reason Dems have gone off the rails in their match to the right
We need Guillotine Party democrats, not gun controllers. And we definitely don't need fossils.
Yep, if anything from these past few months have taught left wing types... it's not to throw away the guns
Dems would sweep everything if they dropped the anti-gun rhetoric and focused on shit that would actually help.
Been saying this for decades.
How would Carville even have standing to sue?
It's a SLAPP suit. It might be thrown out for lack of standing, but it'll cost Hogg money and time.
I never really liked Carville. Didn’t have a reason until now. I feel a little vindicated tbh.
Fuck all these doormat ass Dems that have been sipping on my dime. Fuck em
How can somebody be as incompetent and useless as long as James Carville and still have any kind of credibility?
When did he have credibility? He's been married to a hard-core conservative for decades, clearly he's never been offended by their politics. He was just a waterboy for the Clintons, who were nothing more than Republican-Lite.
Time for all those DINOs to hang it up. Weak rhetoric and action from weak-ass weenies like him and Schumer and Biden are the reason that Conservatism has steadily gained traction for decades, as Democrats fell farther and farther behind, until they literally allowed Nazis to overthrow our government. He can STFU, and GTFO.
And Hogg is Vice-chair of the DNC?! This is the first I've heard of that! Congratulations to him. He was the biggest fighter after the Parkland massacre, and I'm so glad that he's not only still in the fight, but has moved into a position of power. Young people like him and Max Frost give me slight hope for the future.
Carville represents controlled opposition
Carville's a senile attack dog who was briefly something in the 80s.
For what, asshole?
You sure sound nervous.
Carville is an odious individual
I have never heard of this Carville guy, but fuck him. He needs to be thrown out of the democratic party. Let him go play these MAGA style games with the racists.
He's one of the architects of the current right wing DNC
One of Bill Clinton's campaign people who largely architected the current unelectable corpodem shitshow
He was the Waterboy for the Republican Lite Clinton administration. He's been coasting on that one resume entry for 30 years.
Dude looking like bubbles from trailer park boys in those glasses
