From Fox News: Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville and Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., unloaded on Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn. [During Thursday’s episode of the Politics War Room podcast], calling out the progressive “Squad” member for resurfaced comments about white men.
Carville slammed the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, specifically Omar, for doing more harm than good for the party’s cause.
He clarified, “I am a liberal Democrat,” but added, “I don’t like — let’s just say — the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, all right. My argument is maybe these people are not worth the trouble. Maybe they should just go their own way.”
Carville called Omar out specifically, focusing on her 2018 comments avout white men.
“I would say our country should be more fearful of White men across our country, because they are actually causing most of the deaths within this country,” Omar said at the time. “And so if fear was the driving force of policies to keep America safe, Americans safe inside of this country, we should be profiling, monitoring, and creating policies to fight the radicalization of White men.”
Carville said, “Ilhan Omar says that white males are responsible for more deaths than anybody in the country. I have no idea whether that’s true. Why say that?” “Why are we trying to p–s off one-third of the people that are going to vote?”
Carville went on to accuse progressive Dems of isolating voters and antagonizing “about a third of the electorate.”
“When is somebody going to say: ‘Why don’t you people just learn to shut up about this, you’re not doing anybody any good,’” he asked.
Khanna also weighed in on Omar’s comments about white Americans, saying that he disagrees with them on a “substantive level.”
“I think that white Americans have done enormous things for our freedom,” Khanna said. “I mean, who are the people who scaled the cliffs of Normandy? Many of them were white men.”
Democrats should start every speech by saying, ‘America is the greatest country in the world,” Khanna said.
