Democratic political strategist James Carville expressed frustration with the state of his party on his podcast Thursday, arguing that Republicans are able to get away with lying while Democrats are held to a higher standard of credibility.
Talking to guest Ryan Lizza, a journalist, he said, “People say to me all the time, ‘James, why don’t we just do like the Republicans do? Just stand up and lie?’ Because our f—ing people wouldn’t stand for it!” Carville said. “If I stood up and lied, you would be the first person to say, ‘James Carville lost all credibility last night when he said X, Y and Z.’”
Carville, a longtime political talking head, was a top strategist for former President Bill Clinton’s 1992 campaign.
“Yeah, I can spin,” Carville continued. “I can shade. Everybody does that. They just look you right in the eye and lie!” He added, “And then our people say, ‘We ought to lie like them!’ No, we shouldn’t! ‘Cause they would not do that. It would not go over well.”
President Clinton was impeached in 1998 by the House of Representatives on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice connected to his testimony about a relationship with White House intern Monica Lewinsky.
The issue of authenticity came up more recently during the 2024 election. A new book claimed Democrats had major concerns about former President Joe Biden’s decline and cognitive abilities ahead of his June debate against President Donald Trump, despite publicly maintaining that the former president was fit to serve another four years.

I said something similar a few weeks ago. Odd that’s she’s staying out of the public eye so much now.
no... these fkrs just have the art of bullshit down to a science... I actually almost admire them for their precision no matter the extremes they reach.
Obviously. Demonrats can lie as much as they want and they rarely if ever pay a price for it.
