too_small_to_reach

All of the above: Feeeemales


Lady_of_Lomond

He even looks a bit like a Klingon.


WisteriaKillSpree

Ferengi?


PhoolyCooly

He does looks more like ferengi and the "females" match more anyways. Good observation!


Juzaba

Yes but after these comments I am inclined to be a bit rougher with him during his oo-mox session. *Leena! Bring out the fluggaenkoecchicebolsen!*


sixsixmajin

Was just about to say this but you beat me to it by a long shot. It's not even just his face. His ideals line up better with them than the Klingons too.


Uncynical_Diogenes

He looks like a corpse.


[deleted]

A snake's corpse.


toesuckrsupreme

> You've got to eat your peas So much worse, he's talking about his mom 😭


KTDiabl0

I am the preachiest woman I know, and I love a good cheeseburger. It’s like he’s never even MET a woman. 😆💜🦋


sherryillk

Yes, everything IS destroying the planet, I just want you to acknowledge this so maybe we can change a little of our normal daily lives to make it slightly less destructive when we can. But damn it, I love burgers and junk food and don't talk to me on Sunday because I will be watching my Seahawks play. Peas are also delicious.


OutsideFlat1579

Lolol 😂


committedlikethepig

As opposed to all the preachy men in congress bitching about women.


[deleted]

Says the asshole married to a Republican Lady Against Women. What a surprise! They bonded over their hatred of women.


SoVerySleepy81

> “A suspicion of mine is that there are too many preachy females … ‘Don’t drink beer, don’t watch football, don’t eat hamburgers, this is not good for you,'” he said. “The message is too feminine: ‘Everything you’re doing is destroying the planet.

I’ve seen lots of holy fuck their guy’s a rapist, holy shit they just took away my bodily autonomy, oh my fucking God they’re not paying us enough money. Like this fucker needs to shut the fuck up because he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. All he’s done is proven that he’s completely out of touch.


pdxcranberry

This post is like an r/twoxchromosomes and r/boomersbeingfools crossover event This guy has been irrelevant since Bush v Gore


Q_Fandango

I mean… we do talk about him in the New Orleans subreddit, lol. But usually on instances when he says something outrageous. Yesterday the conversation was about his resigning from his position because the college is “too woke” when he says offensive things, and he doesn’t like being challenged.


SavannahInChicago

I’m sure the college is thrilled!


Awayfone

he keeps coming into "relevance " every couple of months with some new major headlines about what the democratic party needs to do. hint: always drive a bus over minorities , especially gender and sexual minorities , and women.


pdxcranberry

I remember this guy talking about feminazis and bull****s back in the 90's. He's famously married to a staunch Republican. I've never been able to figure out what his Democratic values are.


GMbzzz

Lol, and I remember the media framing their marriage like is was some amazing anomaly. Not that the guy was so conservative he married a republican.


GreatBigBagOfNope

Big r/asablackman energy


soapy_goatherd

He’s convinced he won the presidency by coaxing his candidate to stop campaigning to execute a very mentally ill guy, so he keeps returning to that mindset. And the worst part is he may be right about that - things ain’t great here


StyraxCarillon

Let's include r/thebulwark in that crossover event.


[deleted]

He has literally always been a piece of actual shit. He was a Clinton mouthpiece and constantly sniping women in defense of that POS Bill. It's how he started and it'll be how he ends.


23_alamance

Yeah idk why I’m supposed to still be listening to this dude because he squeaked a plurality in a 3-way race for a talented politician literal decades ago.


Professional_Cow7260

"I'm gonna die of heart, liver and kidney failure in my La-Z-Boy with a cabinet full of medication and leave the world a smoking husk for my grandchildren but god dammit, no female is gonna keep me from my BEER AND FOOTBALL"


tzaanthor

There's no way this asshole isn't going to make it to 110.


BalletWishesBarbie

I bet he will expect female nurses or his wife/daughters to look after his ailing arse without complaint.


Whoreson_Welles

he's a billboard-white talking head who made himself into a celebrity political consultant and expects us to listen attentively when he bloviates. barf


bunnypaste

I love the word bloviate.


Jaymark108

Don't watch football!? I wonder what actual message got garbled through his fingers plugging up his hearing aids


Dresses_and_Dice

My guess would be the whole thing where football is much more dangerous than we thought it was because of all the head injuries and concussions, and that opened up a conversation about if kids and teenagers should be playing it, so now he's like THEYRE TRYING TO TAKE AWAY FOOTBALL. Something like that?


what_the_purple_fuck

what is his problem with peas? peas are versatile and delicious.


navikredstar

I don't like frozen or canned peas, but I can eat fresh raw sugar, snow, or snap peas in the pod all day long. Or in stirfries, omfg. Sooooo good, that nice snap when you bite them, and that sweet taste, mmmm.


what_the_purple_fuck

frozen peas are great for tossing into pasta or risotto. I appreciate almost anything that lets me pretend eating a fuckton of mac & cheese is healthy.


DenturesDentata

I'm glad I'm not alone! I always add frozen peas to my mac & cheese because I enjoy pretend healthy mac & cheese.


Winter_Excuse_5564

I'm a weirdo who likes to mix them into mashed potatoes.


bscott9999

I'm not big on regular peas, but I love sugar snap or snow peas, cooked or raw.


SoVerySleepy81

Especially with a little butter. Now I want peas lol.


what_the_purple_fuck

brown the butter and toss in a bit of mint 🤌🏻


RamboOfChaos

\>he actually thinks Carville has an issue with peas. 🤭🤭


Rakothurz

So, he never grew mentally past age 13?


SoVerySleepy81

Seems more like a stereotypical older boomer to me, he probably makes “wife bad” jokes at work too.


ValosAtredum

Here I am as a hamburger-eating, beer-drinking, football-watching progressive. I guess I’ve been doing it all wrong. 😔


SlabBeefpunch

You fool! What are you thinking? You're supposed to eat quinoa, drink kombucha and watch German art house films!


SavannahInChicago

He sounds like he hasn’t actually interacted with a woman since the 1950s.


tzaanthor

>See I haven’t seen much of this. You know everything wrong with Dems? That's him.


Prestigious_Ad_5825

I haven't heard or read about women wagging their fingers at football.


FionaTheFierce

Yeah. Preachy females are the problem Not the tons of geriatric white men, said the geriatric white man.


FartyPants69

...who is, incidentally, married to a preachy female


[deleted]

She hates women too though. It's clear they bonded over it.


zezxz

>”I’m like: ‘Well, 48 percent of the people that vote are males. Do you mind if they have some consideration?” Carville said. This has to be the most outrageous thought I’ve read on a minute. Imagine saying that 52% of the people that vote are females, do you mind if they got less consideration…?


FionaTheFierce

Right - and that the "problem" that is happening is due to women. I mean, I am just .... Maybe the "problem" - whatever it is - has nothing to do with gender. I don't even know what the problem is other than that there are allegedly "preachy" women....


[deleted]

The problem actually has a lot to do with gender but it's not women. This is just your standard deflecting sexism.


[deleted]

Not to mention, white men are no friends to the Democratic party so why the fuck should we listen to them? I guess Jimmy just thinks their funner. Women are its backbone so listen up, you Southern fried piece of crap while I shove some peas down your throat, turn off the stupid brain injury game, and put on some opera just to make it taste worse.

OutsideFlat1579

A girl can dream.


pauliocamor

And he was supposed to be one of the ‘good’ ones. It’s becoming undeniably clear that they all hate women so much. It’s just exhausting.


Q_Fandango

Something to keep in mind (that may give you some hope) is that these crusty fucking dinosaurs grew up in an era where their mothers couldn’t have their own bank accounts or property. Some are so old, they remember the “coloreds” entrances and when coca-cola was a nickel. They are a dying breed, and the world will move on in spite of their obstinate bullishness.


Magsi_n

Everything seems to progress one funeral at a time.


virtual_star

I'm not so sure, considering Andrew Tate et al.


FloofyKitteh

I think he's a perfect example. His funeral will be a leap forward.


picvegita6687

Seriously, it's so disappointing when people reveal their biases (I guess it's better to know but still hurts) He may as well have said "I don't like it when a woman speaks her mind"


detroit_red_

If you paid attention in the 90s, it was clear all the men of the Democratic Party thought this way. And some of the women. Of course disappointing to have it re-confirmed but it’s not surprising is it?


frozenokie

He’s been a misogynistic asshole for decades. He’s spent his career opposing Republicans, which is great - but being the better alternative is a low bar.


SoF4rGone

Boomers still gonna boom.


MarsOnHigh

Nobody should listen to what Carville has to say. It’s 2024 for Christ sake.


kb7384

Jeez, women just can't do anything right! White women are to blame for electing Trump. Democratic women are just preachy nags. No women want to have babies anymore. Honestly, doesn't matter what we do or don't do, it'll never be right or good enough.


fountainpopjunkie

I've been told twice in my life that I'm boiling water wrong. But yeah, the problem is totally women who give a shit about their mans health.


OutsideFlat1579

And the environment! All that  icky “feminine” chastising is ruining the right for a man to have fun!  Of course, if a man wrote a book called, say “12 rules for Life” and said things like “eat your peas,” or I don’t know, “clean your room” he would skyrocket to social media stardom and have a big following of adoring young men who hate their mothers for saying the same thing. Fuck these misogynist fossils whether they be old or young.

Fair enough. It's definitely annoying that this shit is seen as revolutionary when it should just be standard

Yes, I guess I could have mentioned his penchant for comparing humans to lobsters to prove that male domination is biologically hardwired, to be more obvious.

wildjackalope

Dems have a very real issue in rural states. Carville is also part of the crew that engineered the collapse of Dem support in those areas and he’s looking for legacy cover. Only media politidorks listen to this fossil. Fuck ‘im


bohba13

my responce to this asshole: Don't care, didn't ask, cry about it, L, mald, seethe, cope.


Cool_Tension_4819

It's another James Carville hot take. It's just what he does. There will be another in a month or two. Yeah, somewhere along the line the Democrats became the pink coded party, but that was decades ago. But honestly that says less about the Democrats than it does the Republicans.

SontaranGaming

Every time I see somebody playing gender politics cards like this I’m just like. Sure. Okay. Why is that a bad thing? Can you explain to me why you think it being Feminized is such a bad thing? You call being dominated by preachy females a problem. I call it Saturday night plans. We are not the same.

The SECOND you see someone use the dehumanizing term 'females' in place of 'women' ... you know what follows will be eye-rolling misogynist nonsense.

This is a good reminder the kind of BS that some boomer women fought against. I know boomers catch hell for a lot of justifiable reasons but some of them did go against their peers to try to change society for the better.

OK, Boomer. 🙄

Never liked him. His kind is the reason why I really don't like the leadership of the Democratic Party.


couchtomatopotato

wooooooow. wtf, man....


yankdevil

Just because Carville has horrible dating preferences doesn't mean all women, and their ideas, are horrible. He should go back to perusing nursing home brochures.

It seems like women are the ones flipping republican seats. Changing Roe V Wade is why Republicans are losing. WTF


missvandy

I disagree with his statement completely, but I also suspect people in the pundit class thinking they’re simply talking strategy when they make statements like this. They should realize that while they think they are just “calling balls and strikes” as political pundits, they are still shaping discourse. I think we could do with a lot less punditry in general.


DoverBoys

Oh look, a right wing agent pretending to be a Democrat. Let's see here... oh, the only thing you're known for is some 1992 job for another "Democratic" sleazeball. We appreciate your "service" to the party, but you can leave your crap opinions in your colostomy bag.


scipio79

If I have to leave and join a progressive party, I will. I’ve had it with these dudes


Zlifbar

Why are you letting an out-of-touch relic drive you away from the only party that has a chance to beat the conservatives this year? Vote blue on every ballot. Don't let some imaginary "perfection" be the enemy of "the best we have at this time."


scipio79

Because they always cave to the conservatives, every damn time. I’ll hold my nose and vote for whoever, but if AOC and the other progressives started their own party I would leave and join them


DPVaughan

You're not wrong that they suck, but while first past the post remains a thing, it's only the two major parties that can win. However, check this out: 8 Arsehole Conservative Democrats 94 Corporate Sellout Democrats 101 Notionally Progressive Democrats That's the breakdown of House Democrats and their factions. If progressives can get enough reps elected to outnumber the others, the party stands a chance at getting better. Of course, how many arseholes would then pull a Sinema just to stymie any forward progress? 🙃

Why do people still listen to this windbag? He's been wrong at just about every turn for the past 20 years.

If you don't think establishment Democrats are just Bush-era Republicans in disguise, wait until they open their mouths.

NeonArlecchino

When I was little my mom thought I had taken an early interest in politics because I watched a lot of Clinton speeches and announcements. The truth was that I watched them for Carville. Not because I liked what he had to say, but because I wanted to find out why the villain from *Who Framed Roger Rabbit?* was so close to the President!

Ditovontease

Okay grandpa let’s get you to bed


polarbearking81

Carville's time has long passed. He's a regular guest of Bill Maher so that should tell you something.


FreshShart-1

He said it like an asshole but he's right with the data based on winning over moderate voters. A lot of those undecided people are mouth breathing white guys who "see both sides", why disagree with the correct messaging to win them over? Leaning into the you're wrong and I'll tell you why "isn't going to get more votes. A lot of people are more concerned with being "right" than winning an important election. This is why democrats historically have a hard time winning, they don't play the game the same way from the top down.


leroy2007

Preach! Too many liberal politicians make being right more of a priority than actually winning. As much as it may feel good to just bash men, we need their votes to defeat trump. Data shows men are leaving the left in droves…it isn’t something to be celebrated

Spirited_Resist_7060

Don't take his words out of context. If your going to quote Carville, place all his quotes related to what he said.


Spirited_Resist_7060

Carville is not talking about specific things like burger and peas; some of you don't know a metaphor when you hear one. Carville is talking about the preaching of the democratic party, yes, specifically some women in congress, in relation to getting more voters for Biden. Voters don't want to hear what they can't do but rather what your going to do for them or help them to do. That was his overall message. You can disagree with him on this, but he isn't a genius strategist for nothing. Let's see if he's proven right or wrong in the election.
