Lyman: James Carville’s Flip-Flop On The Economy Epitomizes Why Democrats Lost

Share

“You know, James Carville, a few months ago, he correctly pointed out that Democrats went from ‘It’s the economy stupid’ to ‘You’re stupid if you think this economy is bad.’ And he was right. Democrats, including Kamala Harris, spent months telling us that this is one of the greatest economies we’ve ever had. They used metrics that most Americans do not use like GDP and then they also went and told us ‘Yeah, things are bad, but we’re not in a recession because we’re redefining a recession!’ Carville called that out and he was right,” The Federalist’s Brianna Lyman said Friday night on “Hannity.”

“And yet now [Carville] does a 180 and says that Americans didn’t want to ‘settle’ for ‘soaring’ GDP and ‘subsiding’ inflation — that is why the Democrats lost! Soaring GDP is not a metric average Americans use and yeah, inflation may be subsiding — from record highs created by the Biden-Harris administration! Americans remember inflation was still lower when Donald Trump left office than compared to today. And until people like James Carville, Kamala Harris, and the party gets it, they will continue to lose.”
