James Carville fired back at Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) for calling him "a political hack," calling the self-described democratic socialist "a communist."
The back and forth follows a week in which Carville has repeatedly sounded the alarm about a potential Sanders matchup against President Trump in November, calling the scenario "the end of days" for the Democratic Party while referring to Sanders supporters as "a cult."
Sanders returned fire on Wednesday night during an interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper, arguing that "political hack" Carville represents the establishment his campaign is running against.
"James, in all due respect, is a political hack," Sanders said. "We are taking on Trump, the Republican establishment, Carville and the Democratic establishment. But at the end of the day, the grassroots movement that we are putting together -- of young people, of working people, of people of color -- want real change."
Carville, who worked as a campaign strategist for former President Clinton, escalated the feud Thursday on Snapchat with former CNN reporter Peter Hamby.
"Last night on CNN, Bernie Sanders called me a political hack, Carville said. Thats exactly who the f--- I am! I am a political hack! I am not an ideologue. I am not a purist. He thinks its a pejorative. I kinda like it! At least Im not a communist.
Trump also recently referred to Sanders as a communist.

C’mon, James Carville, admit it. You’re just mad that Sanders and the AOC types have been forthright about who and what they are - unlike you and the “establishment” who have prettied up their communism all these years.
I love to hear CarVILE, the father of Politics of Personal Destruction, get personally destroyed.
The Old Snake Head bears the stain of the Clintons, and it wont wash off.
Its fun to listen to Snake Head rant and rave about The Pawty LOL
I do not share the confidence of so many that they will be on our side. The military and police are full of people who would happily join the state in fighting against the people. I’ve met many of them.
Oh, I remember ol’ Buckethead well. He was a complete POS back then, and he hasn’t changed now.
I hope that Party destroys itself.
Saves us the trouble of having to do it for them.
Read Carville’s whole statement.
He said he’s a hack :)
He said it in a colorful way.
I actually love what he said.
That’ll never happen again :)
The press will be full court against Sanders...Bloomberg will be the man
You took the words right out of my mouth!!LOL
I think I see the birth of the #NeverBernie movement.
The DNC will pull the same shady tricks that the RNC pulled on candidate Trump but even more so because the have even fewer scruples than the GOPe.
If you drag a hundred-dollar bill through a trailer park, you never know what youll find.

Bern it Down!
Vote for Bernie in the primary and make the Democrats own the socialism.
Milwaukee had better think about stop and frisk.
~37 million Mosin-Nagants have been made. They were common at gun shows several years ago.

A street thug or a fanatic Dem partisan with an Obrez is a nasty combination.
After all we are not Communists
“But all of sudden, NOW its a problem??”
carville is a stalking horse for hilliary and a died-in-the- wool cult member of the DNC, trying everything they can do to take down bernie.
Remember how much Carville used to attack GWB, who was no conservative?
Why did Bernie vacation in the Soviet Union rather than Sweden or Norway?
Lying sack of shit
A communist versus a snakehead. A pig versus a hog, there is no difference. Go Dhimmis go! Who will win? Who knows? Who cares, as long as they destroy each other!
“Where my gumbo!”
True, but they have an extremely strong desire to be seen as smart and creative. They are obsessed with it.
I think they need to be seen as smart because they aspire to control the lives of others; therefore they have to make the case that they are smarter than those whom they wish to control. They have to be.
