‘HAS NO IDEA’

James Carville Sounds Alarm Over ‘Too Stupid’ Trump’s New Attack

The president doesn’t really know what he’s talking about, the Democratic strategist said.

Donald Trump doesn’t know the difference between socialism and communism, Democratic strategist James Carville claimed Wednesday.

Carville said on his podcast that the 80-year-old president is “too f---ing stupid” to realize how the political systems are alike and how they’re not. Trump has been calling his political rivals “communists” as more Democratic Socialists, like New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, have been winning elections.

Trump, according to Carville, is “just too f---ing stupid to know what he’s talking about.”

“Understand, socialism is an economic system,” Carville, 81, said on the Politics War Room podcast. “Communism is part of the economic system, also a political system.”

“I don’t think Trump knows the difference. I really don’t. I think he’s that stupid,” Carville went on, adding later that the president “has no idea of history.”

Trump “has no idea that Sweden and Denmark and Norway and Finland and countries like that are hugely successful countries,” he explained.

Those countries “are really democratic countries [and] have a lot of really, really successful business, and have a real strong program for social insurance.”

When reached for comment, White House spokesperson Davis Ingle told the Daily Beast that Carville “is a stone-cold loser who suffers from a severe and incurable disease known as Trump Derangement Syndrome, and it has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”

Carville has regularly been needling Trump over a variety of issues on his podcast. Last month, he even predicted Trump would resign by next spring.

“This guy, by Easter of 2027, is just going to walk away from this job,” Carville said, because the midterm elections would do him in.

“He’s just going to f---ing walk away, because he doesn’t have any idea of what it’s going to be like when he comes to grips with the massive rejection of him, anybody that has anything to do with him, anything he has to do with.”

Democrats currently have about a 6 in 10 chance to retake the House and the investigatory powers that come with it, according to forecaster Decision Desk HQ.
