Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville condemned President Donald Trump, gloating on Tuesday that he, his children, and his children’s spouses will face investigations after the midterms.
Carville warned Trump that he is in for a world of hurt after the Republican Party faced what many expect to be a defeat in the upcoming midterms. Carville, in his trademark southern style, said that it would feel politically like getting “punched in the mouth by Mike Tyson.”
“Let’s talk about your future, your post-November future,” Carville said, anticipating widespread defeat of Trump and the GOP. “The Democrats are going to investigate you to no end.”
“They’re going to start going after you. Then they’re going to start figuring out where all the money stolen is,” he continued. “Then they’re going to go after your stupid jackass kids and their spouses and all the other bulls–t that you see, and they’re going to investigate the s–t out of you.”
Before the 2024 election, Carville warned that if Trump won, he would mass-arrest his critics in the media.
Now, in a widely criticized term in office, Carville is singing a different tune, where it is actually Trump who will be the one facing legal persecution.
One theory he has floated several times is that Trump will be so stymied by November’s defeats that he will voluntarily resign early, having his replacement, Vice President J.D. Vance, pardon him on the way out.
But Carville warned in Tuesday’s video that it will not just be domestic courts coming after Trump.
“When it comes to the stuff you’re doing in Iran, I got to tell you, you’re getting really, really, really close to war crimes here. You’re probably going to cross the line,” Carville warned. “And the one thing that Democrats are going to insist on in the 2028 election is that if you’re indicted by the international courts and I think it’s in Hog or Hague or somewhere in the Netherlands, we’re not going to protect your a–, not gonna protect you.”
“You know who’s going to turn on you?” Carville asked. “What’s left of the Republican senators?”
Carville expressed a sincere hope that Trump will be entirely mentally acute so that he can appreciate his political defeat this upcoming November and the impeachment that follows, warning that even a potential pardon from Vance cannot fully cover all of his alleged offenses.
One thing Trump could do, Carville suggested, is to go try to enjoy himself at Disney World like Sen. Lindsey Graham while he still can.
“I got news for you, dude. You’re done,” he said. “And we’re going to enjoy watching your downfall. Thank you very much.”
When contacted by Fox News Digital, a White House spokesman replied, “James Carville is a stone-cold loser who clearly suffers from a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”
Carville has predicted Trump’s political demise over the years. Prior to the 2024 election, he was so convinced that Kamala Harris would win, he wrote a column for The New York Times titled, “Three Reasons I’m Certain Kamala Harris Will Win.”
When Trump began his second term, Carville also predicted his administration would collapse in 30 days.
