Democratic strategist James Carville told Fox News Digital that he would consider joining the Republican Party if the Democrats fully embrace socialism and the Republicans adopt the policies of former President Bill Clinton from the 1990s.

Carville’s Concerns

Carville expressed concerns about the rising faction of far-left Democratic candidates, including socialist streamer Hasan Piker. Piker has been criticized for his far-left rhetoric, including a statement that ‘America deserved 9/11.’ Carville said he would not be in the same party as Piker, calling his comments ‘unacceptable.’

Carville also addressed the possibility of a schism in the Democratic Party if the socialist faction takes over. He said that he would let Democratic voters determine the direction of the party and that if it goes in a direction he disagrees with, he would consider leaving.

Reaction from Other Democrats

Some Democrats, including Senator Bernie Sanders, have stood by Piker and criticized Carville’s comments. Sanders said that Carville’s threat to leave the party was not a significant loss, and that he could start his own party if he disagreed with the Democratic Party’s direction.
