   James Carville Says Democrat Party Has Become `A Cracked-Out Clown Car'

                   by Mike LaChance Jul. 21, 2025 10:20 pm

   Veteran Democrat strategist James Carville is proving that old saying
   about how even a broken clock is right twice a day.

   Carville wrote an opinion piece for the New York Times over the weekend
   that described his own party as a `cracked-out clown car.' Who could
   possibly disagree with his assessment?

   A recent poll found that the approval rating for Democrats in Congress is
   now a measly 19 percent. The party just nominated a communist for mayor of
   New York City. They have no leader, no message, and offer no ideas to the
   American people.

   For once, Carville is right.

   His piece is behind a paywall, but there are details at The Hill:

     Carville: Democratic Party `a cracked-out clown car'

     Democratic strategist James Carville said in a new opinion piece for The
     New York Times that the current Democratic Party is "a cracked-out clown
     car."

     "Constipated. Leaderless. Confused. A cracked-out clown car. Divided.
     These are the words I hear my fellow Democrats using to describe our
     party as of late. The truth is they're not wrong: The Democratic Party
     is in shambles," Carville said in the Times piece released Monday.

     Carville pointed to the recent clinching of the Democratic nomination
     for New York City mayor by Zohran Mamdani, which shocked many political
     observers, saying it "wasn't an isolated event."

     "It represents an undeniable fissure in our political soul. We are
     divided along generational lines: Candidates like Mr. Mamdani are
     impatient for an economic future that folks my age are skeptical can be
     delivered," Carville added.

     "We are divided along ideological lines: A party that is historically
     allegiant to the state of Israel is at odds with a growing faction that
     will not look past the abuses in Gaza and the West Bank," he continued.
     "From Medicare for All purists to Affordable Care Act reformists, the
     list goes on and on."

   The list does go on and on, Mr. Carville. You're right.

   We will leave you with this astute observation:

     The biggest problem the Democrats face is their base is completely
     insane.
