Carville unloads on far-left Democrats

Sunday, July 12, 2026

The new wave of Democrats and progressives, he argued, are repeating the same mistakes that cost the party in the past. "These people are so f"ing stupid I don't know what to say about it," said Carville, who previously served as a senior adviser to former President Clinton. "So now we have this idea that these insurgent Democrats. And what is their solution?" "Is their solution to beat Republicans, to run against Republicans? No! Their solution is to beat Democrats like they're part of the problem," he continued. "You are part of the problem because you're a f-king idiot!"

Carville: "why won't poor people just shut up about wanting their taxes to go to aiding their communities rather than going to fund billionaires and their wars!!!!"

Who gives a shit what this tired old Has Been thinks?

Clinton was a Corrupt and almost Trumplike loser.

Centrist Democrats are the Problem, not the Solution.

Act like Republicans so you can defeat Republicans is their Motto.

The problem is, their policies are REPUBLICAN.

So Why Vote for them,when Real Republicans are Available.

At least the Socialists aren't trying to become Republicans without admitting it to get more "Donor" Cash.

The Clinton's destroyed the Democratic Party for their own Aggrandizement.

Trump won Because of Them.

Not in Spite of them.

No Hillary, No Trump.

No Bill, No Hill.

Carville is a dumbass.

2025: "James Carville called Zohran Mamdani's NYC mayoral primary victory a 'potentially damaging event' for the Democratic Party."

And then Zohran won.

Who still interviews this corporate fossil?

You personally may not like it but people still listen to Carville.

And

When everyone is corrupt no one is corrupt.

And

Less is More.

On Election Day Tuesday 3 Nov 1992, Bill Clinton won the White House with a plurality, not a majority of the vote. And with an abysmal 58.1% turnout of eligible voters.

Bill Clinton (D): 43.0%

Incumbent POTUS George H.W. Bush (R): 37.5%

Third Party Ross Perot (I): 18.9%

More people voted against Bill Clinton, than for him.

Everything is political because humans are political animals.

Politics is the process used to gain and use power

Power corrupts.

America is an attempt to try and manage that power and hold it accountable to the People.

The jury is still out on whether we will succeed.

He will talk sht about every segment of the Party to try to get them to realize that it's a 2 Party System, and that being politically correct comes in second place to WINNING every time.

"If you are going carrying pictures of Chairman Jill, you ain't gonna make with anyone anyhow."

(apologies to John Lennon)

A winning Party needs a Big Tent.... or the other Party to split and field a Ross Perot, as Coriolanus points out.

Clinton in 1996 crawled into bed drunkenly with Newt Gingrich and tolerated the Contract on America.

Want to discuss the prison industrial complex and how Black and brown youth fed it for decades?

Thanks, Clinton, and I presume that was a winning strategy for Carville. I certainly voted for Clinton then, as I did for Obama in his time. But history will show both to be conservative placeholders.

James Carville. I mean, I'd still listen to Henry Kissinger, but only for yuks.

Nonsense. You're cherry-picking which taxes qualify, while leaving out the tax most workers pay the most.

It's Republican Math meets Vernon's Calculator.

Agreed they are representing the Old Way.

But I hear him. As I do any of my party elders. If they have something to say they should speak up.

But.. James Carville is not a Henry Kissinger.

James Carville is an American southern boy who was born in the South ... Carville, Louisiana (a town literally named after his paternal grandfather) and has the South in his blood. People (especially Southern people) tend to like that.

Henry Kissinger is a German who grew up in a German-Jewish family.Fled Nazi Germany with his family in 1938 to move to the United States.Became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 1943 while serving in the U.S. Army.

In the end after the truth filtered out it does look like Henry Kissinger was a ruthless and possibly even a war criminal.

James Carville got sued once for defending Bill Clinton!

Yeah. Not the same lane.

You're a
Lying
Piece

Shit

Low-income individuals pay a significant portion of their earnings through regressive state and local taxes, as well as federal payroll and excise taxes, even if they owe little to no federal income tax.

In fact, the lowest-income households often pay a higher share of their income toward state and local taxes than wealthy households.
The most common taxes paid by poor individuals include:
Payroll Taxes: Workers pay 6.2% for Social Security and 1.45% for Medicare on every dollar earned. This is often the largest federal tax burden for low-income households.
Sales and Excise Taxes: These regressive taxes apply to purchases of goods and services. Lower-income individuals spend a much higher percentage of their overall income on necessities subject to sales tax, as well as specific excise taxes on items like gasoline, alcohol, and cigarettes.
Property Taxes: While renters do not pay this directly, landlords factor property taxes into rent prices, meaning low-income tenants ultimately bear much of this burden.
State and Local Income Taxes: Many states levy personal income taxes that begin at the very first dollar earned, which takes a larger relative bite out of lower budgets compared to flat or top-tiered tax rates.
Although lower-income workers do not pay much in federal income taxes"and often receive relief through the Earned Income Tax Credit or Child Tax Credit"the cumulative effect of these other taxes results in a steep overall tax burden.

Yes. Every politician's number one priority upon being elected is to work on getting re-elected. That means fund raising leading to pay for play schemes.

Not conservatism per se

But you and your ilk lie, shamelessly

Then build policy and cut taxes based on those lies

You're just a shitty human being

#12 America Failed at attempting to keep the Power with the people for the first time with the Whisky Rebellion in 1790.

That was George Washington's Failure.

Centralized Government generally represses.

It's a Necessary Evil but repression is at its core.

Trump's attempts to Federalize All Elections is another example of the Expansion of Central Control.

True Democracy means Decentralized control and local Government,not Top down Corporate Absolutism.

We Failed at that a Long time Ago.

Centralized Government has a place in Government, managing Environmental damage comes to mind. Creating a Stable civil service comes to mind.

Frankly, Anti Trust Enforcement also comes to mind.

Military Deployment has been overplayed, Less is More in that.

There is a fundamental tension between Local Freedom and Control and a Large diverse Nation.

People like Clinton and Trump are Exploitative. They create Crisis to use Government like a Bludgeon.

It generally works too.

1794, But the general idea is Valid.

Washington asserted federal control over people refusing to pay excise taxes on liquor.

They felt unjustly taxed,just like the Rich Oligarchs who started the American Revolution over the Same Damned Thing.

Washington,Jefferson, Madison,Monroe. They all OWNED Human Beings to Steal their Labor and Freedom.

They also wanted to Steal more Indian Land as the Crown forbade settlements west of the Alleghenies.

The Founding Fathers were Greedy and Rapacious Men.

Not Angels.

Our Entire history is Clinton and Trump.

Exploitation.

Oligarchy.

White Domination of everyone else.

There's No way to pretty that up.

Not all Clinron and Trump is a valid Criticism.

Jackson was Worse than Trump.

McKinley was Worse than Clinton.

They all want to Aggrandize the Office and Themselves.

The American President is Too Powerful.

The Office itself is the Problem.

Too much Concentration of Power in one person.

It's an Elective Monarchy, always was.

The States should have Far More Power than they do.

Originally they did, but the Civil War Ended that Forever.

Now we have Federalism.
