James Carville critiques progressive lawmakers Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders during an interview, suggesting they focus too much on internal conflicts within the Democratic Party instead of targeting Republicans. Carville points out that both lawmakers, despite their ability to rally crowds, have not effectively challenged Republican opponents. He highlights Sanders's unsuccessful presidential campaigns as evidence that progressive views may not resonate within the party. Carville urges progressive members to either form their own coalition or to concentrate on defeating Republican challenges for more substantial impact.
When you beat a Republican, come back and see me, and I will be impressed!
They want to run against other Democrats. They don't run against Republicans.
Bernie's run for president twice. He's lost twice... maybe the Democratic party is trying to tell you something.
They're spending a lot of their time, I'll be fair to Bernie and AOC, attacking Trump but they never run against Republicans.
