There’s something wrong with Carvillle. @jenpsaki.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social @chriscillizza.bsky.social @chrislhayes.bsky.social

Whiner in Chief

the messenger wonders why his message isn't resonating news at 11

Then it's time to retire, James.

Republicans message to their voters. Democrats message to their donors.

Who's 'we' buddy? I'm the one with the real job. You're the one who sucks.

Speak for yourself, Jimmy.

Go away, you stupid old fuck

This dude is gonna somehow figure out how to be an annoying fuckwad even after he is dead.

It’s easier to tear down than to build. Hate messages are easier to spread. Republican messages are easier not better.

i assume he removed the hot dog costume for the photo?

Having a message helps.

guy who spends his time complaining about democrats on fox news

One messaging mistake Democrats consistently make is that they're still rolling out James Carville for fundraising appeals, despite the fact that literally no one under the age of 40 has a fucking clue who the guy is.

Don’t you mean LYING?

No, Carville just sucks.

Who keeps pushing Democrats to be RepubLite instead of standing up as actual opposition...?

the "we" is doing a lot of work there

Honestly thought he was dead

Why does the crypt keeper keep getting interviews, he hasn't won an election or been relevant in over 30 years

James Carville (most widely remembered as "The Beltway Jumpscare")

No one cares what this senile, rotten old man thinks. Not one person. Insane to stick a camera in his face for blubbering nonsense.

why are we still covering this guy??

Maybe it's because Dems are inexplicably taking advice from a man who's actively decomposing.

Maybe YOU'RE not as good at messaging James! Maybe you should step down and stop using up all the air on terrible advice like 'play dead for 2 years Democrats'

I mean he's right but also it's his fault.

Given that this guy has been the one doing the messaging for DECADES now, he can take his self critique elsewhere. I’m so tired of these has beens demanding attention & sowing division. I’m going to start by adding Carville to my muted words list!

Equal parts ghoul and dipshit.

That's because we have ancient corpses that won't get off the fucking stage.

Sure, if Dems leave it to dipshits like James Carville.

“And get off my damn lawn!” he continued.

They are not better. It’s that there is no such thing as liberal media. While the talent you see in screen may be liberal, the owners are conservative. Who pays the piper calls the tunes. Democrats can scream as loud as they want , if nobody puts a mic and camera in front of them no one will hear

I hate James Carville

We all know you suck, James! Everyone knows you suck. Retire!

Republicans are absolutely terrible at messaging, Trump spews the most moronic shit anybody has ever heard and then everyone else in the party regurgitates it. James Carville is terrible as well though, so I can see why he thinks he is even worse at messaging than the dumbest man in America.

Yeah because people like Carville use right wing framing and gop talking points to discuss the issues.

To be fair, he doesn’t seem too keen to try being good at it…

I guarantee his wife fucked everything in DC over the past 30 years.

Correct. Which is why his messaging job is actually stopping the democrats from moving left and he has been very successful

Where his incumbent candidate didn’t get 50% of the vote (pre-scandal.) There’s a reason the Republicans who own and run our media give him a big megaphone.

Reminder that the only reason that election was successful is because the candidate was a generational political talent. It wasn't because of Carville.

The math also points to Ross Perot putting Clinton in the WH, not James fucking Carville. 🙄

He won the jackpot in 1996 and convinced himself and a lot of other people that he's a strategic genius - the vaunted wisdom of being in the right place at the right time and lacking the humility to reflect on or even recognize it

Step one: ignore this old incel

Looks like the only message this dessicated near-corpse should be worried about is the one he's gonna want on his tombstone

Oh shut the fuck up you miserable goddamn assholes. How's that for messaging? You're all cucks, who would sell your soul to MAGA for the promise of child porn and tax cuts.

Who is still asking this guy anything? Is it all tv hosts asking their jobless friend to come on air for fun?

"we don’t have a consistent positive story to tell about ourselves" says a guy who has been a Democratic consultant and strategist for 137 years. Huh I wonder if they would have positive story to tell about themselves if they spent the past 30 years doing positive things instead of drifting right.

Um, he’s wrong, as always. The issue with messaging or winning at the meme war/culture wars is telling the truth, which is something James and Centrists can’t do so of course they lose. It’s a political self fulfilling prophecy. Kneecapping. Cutting themselves and everyone else off at the kneecap.

He has another job. He’s been a consultant for Palantir for the last 15 years. So maybe we should stop listening to his advice.

thats because republicans can just say the evil shit they want to happen, and you gotta pretend you don't want it to happen when you really do its tough for you I'm sure

YOU’RE not as good, you marble mouthed Cajun fucknuts. YOU.

Turns out when your whole political project is "we're just as racist as them but we're woke about it" it's harder to sell to racists than just being racist.

Carville needs to go down to the swamp and spend some time swimming with the gators.

This explains why he’s so shit at his job.

Eat shit and die

Dems biggest problem at messaging is letting guys like this be the messenger!

"We"

Then maybe he should stop actively advising Democrats to be spineless amoral cowards who don’t actually stand for anything or possess a coherent ideology. Carville’s “Republican Lite” brand of messaging is PRECISELY WHY Democrats suck so bad at messaging.

Why is he always dressed like a nursing home resident?

Guy in a hotdog suit.gif

Man without principles struggles to find coherence

Mamdani’s comms team like “what do you mean ‘we’”

has this guy ever been right about any election ever? Why do people keep asking him questions??

we'd probably be better at it if we didn't let james carville do any of it

Carville is not part of the "we"; he is part of the "they" he speaks of

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

"It’s time for Democrats to embark on the most daring political maneuver in the history of our party: roll over and play dead." —James Carville, The New York Times, Feb 25, 2025. Maybe it's because James Carville's messaging sucks.

It's credibility, not "messaging". Republican promises are horrible, but they do keep them.

Armchair political analyst Skellator.

They haven't always been better.

Well they don’t have James Carville messaging for them, so they have that going for them at least...

Who's this "we", boomer? 🤨

Could it be that Democrats are spineless and employ weak messaging because they cant actually commit to their ideals?

thing is to the extent this is true there is probably no single individual more responsible for dem messaging from the 1990s to now than james carville!

I cannot stand this man.

They will say this and then immediately shut down progressives and socialists for being "too negative" when they talk about problems having systemic causes

Didn't he promise to leave after he got upset about too many candiates to the left of him winning primaries? Why hasn't he left yet? Does he need someone to help him to the door?

Why is anyone still bothering with this guy?? No one cares what he has to say.

Dumb DINO.

If we could only find a Democratic strategist to let them know.

Democratic political consultants believe in the separation of politics from media, for some reason. Republicans on the other hand, learned from George Orwell that politics and media are the same thing.

bsky.app/profile/nuny...

Cut taxes and hate brown people is an easier message to carry.

Why is anyone still giving this geriatric freak attention

Buddy, no one is telling you guys to constantly concede every talking point to the right, you just kind of do it.

www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

Seriously, why are you even talking to this wazzock? He's the one who's been fucking up the messaging for decades as far as I can see. It's high time he STFU and stepped aside. "We're just as bigoted as the other party but we're more polite about it" gets you where the UK is now with Labour.

What a dipshit

Not sure which is more empty, Carville or this bag?

Let me fix that headline: stupid bitch bad at job.

*He* isn't

Transphobic Racist Bigot Says WHAT?!

Someone explain to me why we are supposed to care what this guy thinks? What has he done for us in the last... 40 years?

All looking for the guy who did this.jpg

James Carville looks like he has opinions on dog fucking. But not like, opinions against it, opinions on style.

Mamdani seems to be messaging ok

Doesn't help that the message sucks

Fuck this washed boomer

FUCK THAT GUY… ☠️🤬☠️

I hope he dies soon. So tired of his shit

Says Republican piece of shit James Carville.

Speak for yourself you hundred year old Galapagos tortoise looking motherfucker

Who is this “we”?

maybe your message sucks

Who cares

lol “we”

HE’S BEEN THE FUCKING MESSENGER FOR DECADES.

Stop listening to narcissistic Boomers

Because James is here to make sure the Dems don’t go to the left and stay center right for capitalism.

It’s not simply that the Dem’s messaging is poorer, it’s that GOP/leaning minds are easily persuaded by the GOP’s inaccurate messaging.

He can go fuck his triangulatin’ self

And whose fault is that?

The dude can't even get to the stage, people keep bringing the whole damn stage to him Just stop going to the guy who's only two strategy moves for 40 years have been "punch left" and "have ross perot run"
