Carville: ‘Too many preachy females’ are ‘dominating the culture of the Democratic Party’ 

Democratic strategist James Carville has argued that “too many preachy women” in the Democratic Party may be the reason for President Biden’s overwhelming support from key voters.

in an interview Carville, co-authored with New York Times opinion columnist Maureen Dowd and published Saturday, examines the culture of the Democratic Party and how it may affect support for Biden among voters, especially men. expressed concern about this.

“My suspicion is that too many women are preachy…’Don’t drink beer, don’t watch soccer, 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. You have to eat your peas.’

Carville, who was a strategist for former President Clinton’s 1992 presidential campaign, argued that this culture and rhetoric does not address the concerns of male voters.

“NPR is my go-to place to hear what Democratic elites have to say, but the whole story is about how women, and women of color, decide this election. “Well, 48 percent of people who vote are men.” May I ask for your consideration? ” Carville said.

Carville quipped about Biden’s low approval ratings, saying, “When you look at these numbers, it’s like walking up to your grandma naked.” I can’t get that image out of my head. ”

Carville has also expressed concern in recent weeks about Biden’s declining support among people of color and voters. called it a “problem” For the incumbent last week.

According to a Gallup poll The Democratic Party’s lead as the party of choice among Black Americans has declined by 20 points over the past three years, and the Democratic Party’s lead among Hispanic adults is at its lowest since 2011, according to an announcement released last month. CBS News poll Biden’s support among Black voters has fallen from 87% in 2020 to 76% this year, according to data from last month.

Despite his concerns about the president’s campaign, Carville said, “I actually like Biden.”

“He’s a tenacious guy who’s lived a real life. He’s a student at a state school. He doesn’t have any sense of elitism. He doesn’t even know what it means to be ‘woke.’ “He was clearly the best black president in American history, including Clinton and Obama.” “We look at income, employment, poverty rates, access to health care. It’s not where white people are, but we’re closer to it than ever before.”

The Biden campaign has stepped up its efforts to appeal to voters of color, launching an ad last week in which Biden speaks directly to black voters in battleground states. The campaign argued that former President Trump’s reappointment would be a “disaster” for the public.

The campaign has since announced programs to engage Latino voters, whom Biden said at a fundraiser in Arizona last week were “the main reason” he won against Trump in 2020. Stated.
