James Carville says Harris should tell far-left to ‘go f— themselves’ 

Vice President Harris should dump far-left progressives if she wants to win the White House, said Democratic political strategist James Carville.

“I wish she’d tell them all to go f— themselves,” Carville, 79, said during an episode of his “Politics War Room” podcast this week.

“Understand this, and I’m going to say this as clearly as I can: Anybody that has ever listened to anything that the progressive left has ever said has lived to profoundly regret it. Literally on every issue, they’re dead a– wrong,” Carville added.

Carville said troubles from Biden’s presidency, like the ongoing crisis at the U.S. border, were caused by listening to progressive voices.

“And why is the border an issue? Because Biden listened to these people early in his term. They weren’t just wrong; they were catastrophically wrong. Understand that,” he insisted. “These people are not just wrong — they’re literally walking catastrophes. And the faster people realize that, the better off they’re going to be. And they don’t have very much power.”

Carville, a one-time top aide to former President Clinton, has long made a name for himself as a straight shooting moderate, unafraid of upsetting the far-left flank of his party.

In March, Carville also complained that the Democratic party had “too many preachy females.”

‘Don’t drink beer. Don’t watch football. Don’t eat hamburgers. This is not good for you … Everything you’re doing is destroying the planet. You’ve got to eat your peas,” he harangued to columnist Maureen Dowd.

The line drew a rebuke from progressive Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who sniped that Carville should “start a podcast.”

During an appearance on “Firing Line” with Margaret Hoover last month, Carville said Harris was competitive, but warned she was in for a tough race and would “get slaughtered” in Republican attack ads.

“I think that she has a record, she’s going to have to come up with some proposals. But I think a lot of it is going to depend on her ability to define herself, and I actually think she’s going to have to introduce herself, because she’s really not that well known,” Carville said.

“Republicans are going to try to introduce her on their terms. I don’t blame them. I would do the same thing. And she’s going to have to get good fast,” he added.
