WATCH: James Carville Leaves MSNBC’s Psaki Speechless With Blunt Election Analysis

Veteran Democratic Party political strategist James Carville left MSNBC’s Jen Psaki speechless with a blunt, scathing analysis of the state of the party and its dismal performance on Election Day.

Commonly referred to as the “Rain Cajun,” Carville has garnered a reputation for blunt, unforgiving political analysis over the years. In what has become a common critique of his in the weeks following Vice President Kamala Harris’ crushing defeat, Carville told Psaki that the Democratic Party’s embrace of politically correct language and outrage culture is a major anchor. At one point in the somewhat awkward segment, the Bill Clinton Campaign architect urged the left to abandon what he called “idiotic NPR jargon.”

“Let’s just be authentic and to the point,” Carville told the former Biden White House press secretary when asked about the Democratic Party’s messaging.”So I think people like you and I can bring this home by example and don’t use that idiotic NPR jargon when you are talking to voters,” he said.

Even in the lead-up to the election, Carville was sounding the alarm over Democratic Party messaging. He was particularly concerned with the party’s pitch to working class male voters, a demographic that has provided critical support to Democrats in the past but has been increasingly moving towards the right. Carville blamed this shift on “too many preachy females” having power in the Democratic Party, pointing to the rise of trends like cancel culture, tone policing and endless HR-style lectures.

“A suspicion of mine is that there are too many preachy females … It’s too much ‘don’t drink beer, don’t watch football, don’t eat hamburgers, this is not good for you,’” he said during a Washington Post panel last year.

During his interview with Psaki, Carville pointed to a post-election op-ed he recently penned for the New York Times. In stating that he was wrong about the 2024 Election, Carville referenced his famous “it’s the economy, stupid” from 1992, when he was advising then-candidate Bill Clinton to focus on the economy above all other issues. “I was telling them, all educated, smarter than I was, don’t be too smart here, okay?” Carville said, recalling candid conversations with fellow strategists at the time.

He went on to tell Psaki that prominent Democrats like themselves need to “lead by example” and use language that everyday Americans can understand and don’t feel patronized by. As for the future of the party, Carville listed a number of policy goals that Democrats should pursue in the coming years, some of which were are radical. “Let‘s try codifying Roe v. Wade, that has two-thirds support. It‘s all across the Democratic Party. They can‘t do it. Let‘s talk about raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour. That unifies the Democratic Party. That has over two-thirds support. Do that. Let‘s talk about taxes over 400,000. Don‘t let those tax cuts expire. Take that money and put it into a first-time homebuyers relief fund or rental relief fund. They can‘t do that.”
