Carville Biden the ‘most tragic figure in my lifetime’

Democratic Party strategist James Carville lamented the political misfortune of President Biden in the weeks following President-elect Donald Trump's victory. In a video update published on YouTube, the 80-year-old pundit weighed in on the heat Biden is currently enduring from his own party for pardoning his son, Hunter Biden. Though Carville did not hold the pardon against the president, he lamented how Biden's actions in the past year have made him such an unpopular figure. "The most tragic figure in American politics in my lifetime is President Biden," Carville proclaimed. The strategist waved off criticism from Biden's own party that he pardoned his son on Sunday after saying throughout his presidency he never would.
