Foul-mouthed James Carville has a prediction about the ‘f-ing votes’ for a third party in 2024

January 19, 2024 | | Print Article

Acid-tongued Democrat strategist James Carville had a profanity-soaked prediction about the popularity of a third-party challenger in this year’s election, saying that an alternative candidate can expect to receive “a lot of f**king votes” come November.

With it looking like nothing is going to convince deeply unpopular incumbent Joe Biden to step down for a less toxic alternative, millions of people who would normally vote Democrat may find it too much to hold their noses for the geriatric Democrat and may opt for a third-party candidate as a protest vote, something that the longtime consultant seems to fear.

On a recent edition of his “Politics War Room” podcast, Carville broke down this week’s Iowa Republican caucuses which were won by former President Donald J. Trump in a historically dominating showing, scoffing at the significance of the big win while gazing into his crystal ball about the likely rematch between Biden and Trump.

“The third party is going to get a lot of f**king votes in 2024. I’m just telling you,” he said, according to Fox News. “Unless something really changes, and it’s hard for me to see the change.”

Carville blew off Trump’s strong showing in the Hawkeye State where he took 51 percent of the vote as “not overly impressive” and that he sees the number as showing “substantial doubts among more than a sliver of the Republican Party” for the nation’s 45th president, admitting that he also says is the case with Biden among Democrats.

“It’s just hard for me not to see an uninspiring election with the third party doing really well,” he said, also expressing a gnawing dread that the heavier-than-normal turnout for a third party could adversely impact Biden.

“I don’t know that, but it’s my great fear,” he said.

He predicted that a third-party candidate would get a  sh*tload more” than 3 percent of the vote.

The 79-year-old is much less enthusiastic about the impact of a third-party candidate than he was back in 1992 when independent Ross Perot pulled nearly 19 percent of the vote. It was enough to swing the election from incumbent President George H.W. Bush to put Slick Willie into the White House despite the scandal-ridden governor of Arkansas only pulling 43 percent of the vote in an election that punched Carville’s ticket on the gravy train that he is still riding over three decades later.

The “Ragin’ Cajun” also joined his fellow leftists in promoting wacky conspiracy theories about red spots on one of Trump’s hands after a heated experience inside a New York City courtroom in the E. Jean Carroll trial, a legal circus that the former POTUS described as an “Election Interfering Witch Hunt Trial.”

“They don’t look like cuts to me, they look like sores,” Carville said. “And I’ve asked a number of MDs what medical condition manifests itself through hand sores. And the answer is immediate and unanimous,” he claimed. “Secondary syphilis,” a particularly vile remark but par for the course for the cadaverous consultant.

Carville was credited as the driving force behind Bill Clinton’s surprise victory with his slogan “It’s the economy stupid” resonating with enough voters to allow the lecherous Democrat to spring the upset against Bush, a shocking result coming the year after he enjoyed record-high approval numbers during the first Gulf War.

But while Carville got the glory, Bill and Hillary would have never ended up in Washington, D.C. without the big assist from Perot.
