Source: Raw Story · Bias: Far Left

Summary

Republican critics of Trump are missing the mark by labeling the president the "Antichrist," Democratic political strategist James Carville said."I've called Trump the MF word, and I've called him worse than that. I've called him a sack of [expletive]," Carville said Tuesday on Politicon. "Rod [Dreher], who is Vance's spiritual mentor and Tucker Carlson, who is a person of some substance in the Republican Party, have both called Trump the Antichrist. Well, even I haven't gotten there."Carville said that "even I haven't gotten there," but not because he thinks they're too soft. Rather, Carville thinks that Trump's right-wing critics are simply giving him too much credit by calling him the Antichrist."All of the people that fight in the street about my name calling, understand this. I have not yet referred to Donald John Trump as the Antichrist. All right? Because I think the Antichrist would be smarter," Carville said.Carville stressed that the Antichrist comments are significant because Dreher "is a much much much much bigger deal than anybody realizes" and Carlson is also "a big deal," he said.However, "I'm just going to keep calling him a [expletive] and not even worry about," Carville concluded.
