James Carville rips Democrats for lack of unity, warns party is steamrolling' toward a civil war
Democratic strategistJames Carville ripped Democrats for their lack of unity and warned that the party is "steamrolling toward a civilized civil war" in a new essay."Constipated. Leaderless. Confused. A cracked-out clown car. Divided,"Carville wrote in aMonday guest essay published in The New York Times."These are the words I hear my fellow Democrats using to describe our party as of late. The truth is theyre not wrong: The Democratic Party is in shambles."Carville said thatNew York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdanis win in the citys primary"representsan undeniable fissure in our political soul."CARVILLE CALLS SOCIALIST'S VICTORY IN NYC MAYORAL PRIMARY A 'POTENTIALLY DAMAGING EVENT' FOR DEMOCRATIC PARTYHe pointed toMamdanis economic policies, which includegovernment-run grocery stores and plans totax the top 1% of New Yorkers, admitting that he is concerned that they will actually be able to be executed."We are divided along generational lines: Candidates like Mr. Mamdani are impatient for an economic future that folks my age are skeptical can actually be delivered,"Carville said."We are divided along ideological lines," he added. "A party that is historically allegiant to the state of Israelis at odds with a growing faction that will not look past the abuses in Palestine. From Medicare for All purists to Affordable Care Act reformists, the list goes on and on."He said that Democrats must "demand" a repeal of PresidentDonald Trumps cuts to Medicaid in the 47th presidents "big, beautiful bill."CARVILLE SHREDS DEM STATE CHAIR, TELLS PROGRESSIVES TO START THEIR OWN 'PRONOUN' PARTYThe legislationrequires able-bodied adults without children to work 80 hours a month, amounting to 20 hours each week, in order to receive Medicaid benefits.He also said that Democrats must "demand a repeal to end the endless wars, because the bill boosts military spending to$1 trillion for the very first time," as well as help students who are losing loan protections and may no longer be eligible for Pell Grants.Democrats must also "demand a repeal" of the cuts to theSupplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP),Carville said."Weve never had a simpler, more unifying oppositional message,"Carville said. "Soon it will no longer be possible to avoid a brawl between the factions ignited back in the 2016 Democratic presidential primary. But for now, whether youre the progressive Mr. Mamdani, the centrist former Rep. Abigail Spanberger running for the Virginia governorship or even Elon Musk, we can all agree on one thing: We demand a repeal. Onward to the midterms."
