Well-known Democrat strategist James Carville drew criticism from within his own party over the weekend when he said “preachy females” are driving people away from the political party and Joe Biden.
Carville, who led Bill Clinton to victory in the 1990s, told The New York Times (NYT) that “too many preachy females” caused the Democrat Party’s declining popularity.
“A suspicion of mine is that there are too many preachy females,” Carville told the NYT. “‘Don’t drink beer. Don’t watch football. Don’t eat hamburgers. This is not good for you.’ The message is too feminine: ‘Everything you’re doing is destroying the planet. You’ve got to eat your peas.’”
“If you listen to Democratic elites — NPR is my go-to place for that — the whole talk is about how women, and women of color, are going to decide this election,” he continued. “I’m like: ‘Well, 48 percent of the people that vote are males. Do you mind if they have some consideration?’”
Carville said that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump “projects energy” compared to Biden despite being “insane” and a “criminal,” according to the outlet.
“Now don’t tell me that Biden has more energy or cognition than Trump because it’s evident that, yeah, Trump’s got word salads, but he projects energy,” the Democratic strategist said.
The Times also noted that Biden’s approval rating has remained at 37% despite hopes of a boost after his State of the Union address.
