NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Democratic strategist James Carville criticized President Donald Trump and comedian Bill Maher during a recent episode of the “Politics War Room” podcast, where he responded to Trump’s remarks about former FBI Director Robert Mueller and pushed back on Maher’s comments about “Trump derangement syndrome.”
“Do me a favor, Bill. Try to get your head out of Bari Weiss’s a–,” Carville said, speaking directly to Maher during the segment.
Carville’s remarks came after Maher criticized him as acting like a “crazy old man” with “Trump derangement syndrome,” arguing that Carville represents a small segment of the political media out of touch with ordinary Americans.

Carville pushed back on that characterization, summarizing Maher’s criticism before responding.
“The argument is that myself and people like me are crazy…we’re just blind rage, crazy, we can’t stand Trump,” Carville said.
He then adopted the labels, calling himself and those who were like-minded crazy.
“I’m going to agree with you. I’m crazy…a lot of people like me, we’re crazy,” Carville said.

Carville described his reaction to the current political climate, saying he and like-minded people wake up early, angry, about the state of the country.
“We wake up at 2 a.m. throwing shit at the wall. I can’t believe this mother—– is the president of the United States,” Carville said.
“Perhaps our madness is proof of our sanity,” he added.

Carville also highlighted Trump’s response to Mueller’s death, noting that Trump reacted by saying he was “happy,” and questioned whether that should change how critics view the situation.
“Robert Mueller dies and Trump says, ‘I’m glad,’” Carville said. “Are you going to stay mad about this?”

Carville ended by reiterating his message to critics, saying they may “laugh at us” and “mock us,” but his position remains unchanged.
“We’re not going to change…we’re not going to go backwards, not one iota,” Carville noted.
“James Carville is a mindless loser who clearly suffers from a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain,” White House spokesman Davis Ingle told Fox News Digital.
