Not one to mince words even in the best of times, Democratic strategist James Carville eviscerated President Donald Trump after his shockingly undiplomatic meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday.
Describing the Republican president as a “fat f---ing slob” with a “beached whale body” on the latest edition of his Politicon podcast, Carville speculated that a purported rash of red blotches on Trump’s hands could be a sign of syphilis that has addled the president’s brain.
“When you see that condition, the first thing that you suspect is syphilis,” Carville raged, noting that the condition causes brain damage in its later stages. “That boy ain’t right.”
In some historic cases, the disease has been known to manifest in displays of erratic, volatile, and violent behavior among patients.
“I don’t mean madness like, ‘I’m mad at you, you’re mad at me.’ I’m talking about madness like, King George III kind of madness,” Carville said. “I’m not a medical doctor, but I think we should revisit the possibility of a syphilis diagnosis.”
In a statement to the Daily Beast, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt noted that, “President Trump is a man of the people and he meets more Americans and shakes their hands on a daily basis than any other president in history. His commitment is unwavering and he proves that every single day.”
Communications director Steven Cheung was more forthright, telling the Beast in his own statement: “James Carville is a morally deficient parasite who has outlived his sell-by date and continues to grift off his terrible political analysis. He seems to be obsessed with sexually transmitted diseases, but he should really find some urgent care for his debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
