On Friday, Democrat political consultant James Carville told the truth on CNN. We’re shocked. SHOCKED! Carville wrapped his truthful gift in plenty of hypocrisy, though. CNN’s Jake Tapper asked a very Gollum-like Carville if Democrats would treat a Republican military vet with a Totenkopf tattoo differently than they’ve treated Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner of Maine. That’s when the truth spilled out.
Here’s Carville’s answer. (WATCH)
Tapper: What would you say to a Republican who says if a Republican combat veteran had a Nazi tattoo, you wouldn’t be so forgiving?

Carville: It’s true. I would say you're exactly right.

This is one of the most pathetic things I've ever seen. A washed-up old network and man.

But enough about Jake Tapper. Let's focus on what Carville admitted.
Posters say Carville’s truth-telling regarding the Democrat Party’s double standard quickly veered into overly-familiar Trump territory.
Predictable Segue to TDS...

That is what they believe justifies it

Democrats use our current President to justify a lot of evil. Voting for a Nazi? Sure, because Trump!
Carville’s honesty has commenters feeling something strange toward the human cueball—respect.
I can actually respect this answer because he is speaking the truth. 🤷♂️

At least he’s honest about his hypocrisy.

Probably the only thing he’s honest about.

Carville is out of his mind … but at least he’s honest about their shameless double standard.

I don't know whether to give him props for honesty or toss him into a snowbank for wasting our collective time.

Carville’s so pale no one would ever find him if he was trapped in a snowbank.
Posters say Trump’s got Democrats twisting themselves into pretzels over Platner.
Trump’s got leftists so twisted they don’t know which end is up.

They’ve gone from “all women should be believed” and “No Nazis in Office” to smearing women and trying to get Nazis elected.
Hilarious!
So Elon & Trump waving to crowds are Nazi salutes. But a douche WITH a Nazi SS (who were THE most brutal & inhumane of the Nazis) tattoo is totes ok because he’s Swamp Rat Carville’s guy. Not to mention Platner’s alleged racism, homophobia, misogyny & hatred of those who served.

Dems will happily accuse anyone of being a Nazi with zero proof so long as they are a Republican.
— Pablo Clay (@realPabloClay) June 5, 2026
But they've got no problem at all with a guy with a Nazi tattoo if he's a Dem because it's all about power and money for Dems.
Today’s democrats are beyond shame. Hypocrisy means nothing to them. A conscious could interfere with securing power.

Some Democrats are publicly trying to distance themselves from Platner; we know that below their ‘concern’ they’re rubbing their hands in anticipation of the power his victory could give them in Congress. That’s all that matters after all. Power.
Editor's Note: President Trump is fighting to ensure America's kids get the education they deserve.
