Democratic strategist James Carville has disavowed socialist candidate Darializa Avila Chevalier, who recently won a primary election in New York’s 13th Congressional District. Carville argued that Avila Chevalier’s views are not aligned with the Democratic Party, citing her support for abolishing ICE and the police, as well as her past involvement with a group that called for the ‘total eradication of Western civilization’.

Carville’s Comments

In an interview with NewsNation, Carville stated that Avila Chevalier ‘is not a Democrat’ and that she should not be seated in the Democratic caucus. He also criticized her views on issues such as interracial dating and Israel, saying that they are ‘totally against anything that any Democrats have’.

Carville’s comments reflect a growing concern among some Democrats about the influence of socialist and far-left ideologies within the party. Avila Chevalier’s victory in the primary election has been seen as a significant win for the socialist movement, but it has also raised questions about the party’s direction and values.

Avila Chevalier has been backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who has also been involved in controversy surrounding his views on Israel and the Jewish community. Carville’s criticism of Avila Chevalier and Mamdani reflects a deeper divide within the Democratic Party about issues such as Israel, socialism, and the role of faith in public life.
