Tensions Explode as Carville and Watters Torch DNC Infighting
The Democratic Party’s internal strife took a fiery turn this week as legendary party strategist James Carville unloaded on DNC Vice Chair David Hogg, calling him a “contemptible little twerp” in a blistering segment on NewsNation. Carville’s outrage stems from Hogg’s reported use of DNC infrastructure to launch primary challenges against sitting Democrat incumbents—an attempt to push the party even further left in preparation for what he calls “resisting Trump.”
Carville even floated the idea of legal action against Hogg, hinting that the divisive young activist may have crossed ethical or procedural lines in his quest to “purify” the Democratic ranks.
Jesse Watters Delivers a Knockout Blow on Fox News
The infighting didn’t escape the crosshairs of Fox News’ Jesse Watters, who mocked the spectacle during an episode of The Five, quipping, “Watching these two fight is like watching women’s boxing: they’re both 130 pounds, the fighting is bad, and I don’t care who wins.”
Watters didn’t stop there—he took a direct swipe at Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC), accusing him of orchestrating the political maneuvering that led to the nomination of Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. “Clyburn himself is the problem,” Watters charged. “He blackmailed Biden to pick a DEI VP, bypassed the primary process, and now blames the media for their failures.”
‘All Sizzle, No Steak’: The Messaging Crisis
In his signature style, Watters launched into a culinary analogy to illustrate the Democratic messaging problem. “This is like the Democrats are a chef who cooks disgusting food. The media is the food critic lying to everyone about how good it is,” he said. “Now they have no more customers, and instead of changing the recipe, they want to fire the critics.”
His punchline? “Stop using influencers, celebrities, and flashy music. Just cook better food that everybody likes. There’s a saying—‘all sizzle, no steak.’”
DNC Civil War Heats Up
The intra-party fight illustrates a deepening divide between establishment Democrats and the far-left activists trying to take control of the party’s narrative and power structure. With Hogg’s insurgency threatening to destabilize moderate incumbents and Carville’s old-school tactics trying to keep the party on track, the 2024-2025 election cycle may witness a civil war playing out in public view.
Whether this feud fizzles out or flares up into a full-blown rebellion could determine the party’s trajectory for years to come. One thing is certain—this fight is just getting started.
