  2. I know Carville has become somewhat of a joke around here, but hear me out ! His wife is a Republican consultant/campaign director with the pre-Trump GOP, so he might have some inside information…

  4. I mean they are doing insane things that are very unpopular. So it’s not surprising to me.

    Trumps approval rating is dipping already. It’s under water one month in

  6. The GOP was a disposable booster rocket / Trojan horse which is why they are willing to burn their own supporters. If they can concentrate power entirely in the hands of the executive quickly enough it may not matter.

  7. Remember: We the people pressure that will cause this implosion. Go to rallies and protests, if there’s a town hall in your district be there, ask hard questions and let your anger and frustration be heard. If you can not attend these events, call your representatives. And it’s not all about anger, let people like Gov. Mills know you support them standing up to Trump.

    Remember Snyder’s first rule, “Do not obey in advance.” Even if it feels like the world has gone crazy. remind everyone at every opportunity that this is not normal.

  8. we waited 4 years, then another 4 years, I don’t think another 4 weeks is gonna change anything.

  9. The whole republican money train is based on always having something to complain about while keeping the western alliance and system running.

    Trump and Elon are actually going to destroy the good system that they have. Its the dog catching the car problem. They aren’t able to eat the car and they could ruin the golden goose.

  10. Funny. That’s about how long I give our democracy.

  11. A major thing is going to be the budget in 2ish weeks

  12. What does implode mean?

    In the UK, the MPs can force the prime minister out of office. (That’s what happened to Liz Truss). But trump is still president even whatevet happens.

    Impeachment? Unlikely.

  13. I’m kind of with Carville here. Dems should absolutely fight where they have power, but I feel let the R’s own this and implode. The only reason it hasn’t yet is because people still haven’t started to feel all the impacts of Trump’s actions.

  14. I’m praying for an emperors no clothes moment where a Republican stands up in the senate and calls this crazy out and it rallies enough to block the madness.

    If someone is looking to stand out and make a name as the next leader of the party, this is the time.

  16. Sorry if I don’t think ‘playing possum’ is the best strategy or if I care what James Carville has to say after the last 3 decades.

    I’d be a lot more impressed if he could predict what the collapse will be. Or if he would address the growing concerns about the continued legitimacy of our democracy and if we still have one.

  17. Carville and others have been predicting the collapse of the GOP for years at this point. Man needs to retire and bow out, he hasn’t been relevant since the 90s.

  19. The damage is done. Our reputation and influence in shambles. We don’t have patriots in the White House, we have traitors…and cowards in Congress. There’s a reason why Biden reminded people to uphold their oath to the Constitution.

  20. Yes, the trump presidency will collapse in the next few weeks as trump crown him self king and thus ending the trump administration.

  21. …Carville also said that there’s no way Harris loses…

  22. A broken clock is right twice a day so I’m hoping this is one of those times he’s right.

  23. This is peak copium. Fight like the only thing that will fix this is us, I don’t see it going away on its own.

  25. As a Democrat. I have stopped trusting Carville years ago. Fluff article.

  26. Right.

    “Any day now…” ~2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025

  27. I hope he’s right but also, fuck Carville for making the Democrats into a lighter version of the Republicans with his stupid triangulation bullshit.

  28. Not my favorite person but…

    From his mouth to Gods ears.

  29. The fucking Neo-Liberal crypt keeper right here.

    That guy’s one of the people responsible for moving democrats to the right.

  31. Hopium on steroids in here. The GOP have been collapsing for 8 years. And hey, they just won the election.

  32. I agree. There are two things that Trump cares about and they are both going to tank: the financial markets and the polls. At this pace, it’ll be just a few weeks before they implode.

  35. Well that’s because the GOP is no longer necessary for Trump’s inner circle.

    They’re making the new Nazi empire.

  37. TIL James Carville is still alive

    he looked to be 90 years old back in the 90s

  38. This guy is a hack and a grifter. Has been since the 90s. No idea why people ask him his opinion 

  39. Though I hope this is true, James Carville has been super wrong the entire time Trump has been a politician. He has also been a giant bag of dicks

  42. I don’t think James Carville has been right about anything for two decades.

  43. Play possum? Dude.

    Fate, circumstance, and the extremely mercurial will of the American people have conspired together, in this moment, to give the Democrats an opportunity to take control of the messaging and show real leadership. Why on Earth would it make any goddamned sense to sit and watch that train go by?

    We need more like AOC and Bernie and fewer like Carville.

  44. lol republicans know how to fall in line. All they do is stay in power and get more power. Thats all they are gonna do. Actual policy (besides a tax break for the rich, and destruction of regulations) is theater. They are only there to disrupt, destroy, and blame the dems.

  45. They also predicted that trump will be behind bars by end of the month. That was February 2021.

  46. Bullshit. Carville hasn’t been relevant for 25 years. If we don’t throw ALL of these grifters off the raft we’re gonna sink.

  48. Okay, I would love this but he predicted Kamala would win, so…..

  49. If he put money on all his predictions, he’d be sucking dick for cash.
