(TheLastPatriotNews.com) – In a wild political episode seeing Democrats at each other’s throats after losing the 2024 election, veteran leftist strategist James Carville has unleashed a scathing critique of Kamala Harris’s campaign, pinpointing young progressive staffers as culprits for her missteps.

His frustration is sharp and clear: ideological purism and disdain for risk led to colossal blunders, including dodging a crucial platform with podcast giant Joe Rogan.
Many are left wondering how much influence these “handlers” should wield in shaping America’s political future.
James Carville slammed the young progressive aides in Harris’s campaign for leading her to reject an interview with Joe Rogan, a blunder he argues played a significant part in her election loss.
In an interview with Politicon, Carville, a longtime Democrat loyalist, insists that the decision not to appear on Rogan’s platform was governed by misguided priorities, alienating potential supporters.
The aides’ concerns about internal party perceptions seemingly shadowed practical political strategy
Carville’s criticism didn’t stop at just the Rogan incident. He blasted the mentality of these young staffers, asserting that their lack of real-world experience and fixation on “wokeness” hindered broader Democrat appeal.
According to Carville, campaigns are about practical victories, not ideological grandstanding.
His sentiment is echoed by many who find the modern Democrat Party out of touch with average Americans.
“The vice president was thinking about going on Joe Rogan’s show and a lot of the younger, progressive staffers pitched a hissy fit. Supposedly the campaign said that wasn’t a determining factor, but they did,” James Carville said, cited by Fox News.
He emphasized that the Democrats’ new focus on progressive ideals, driven by a coastal elite mentality, could cost them the blue-collar and moderate party members nationwide.
“You do anything you can to win, understand that. There’s nothing, nothing more important than winning elections,” Carville stated.
Carville’s assessment of authoritarianism in campaigns reveals his belief that such ventures should be about clear strategic execution, not appeasing young, inexperienced voices that reflect progressive values.
As the dust settles from the latest electoral defeat, Harris is reportedly considering her future political options, including a gubernatorial bid in California.
“When you put a campaign together and you hire young people to do work, let me tell you exactly what you tell these people. What I would tell them: ‘Not only am I not interested in your f—ing opinion, I’m not even gonna call you by your name. You’re 23 years old, I don’t really give a s— what you think,’” Carville said.
Ultimately, Carville’s lambasting of Harris’s strategy—or lack thereof—serves as a cautionary tale.
The emphasis on appealing to only a narrow demographic while ignoring potential broader support has consistently led to electoral failures.
Dem strategist James Carville absolutely obliterates Kamala's progressive staffers who kept Harris from doing the @joerogan interview: I would tell them, "Not only am I not interested in your f**king opinion, I’m not even gonna call you by your name."
