Democratic strategist James Carville on Sunday mocked young voters who are struggling with whether they will vote for the Democratic Party.
President Joe Biden’s support among young voters has been declining since even before the Israel-Hamas war commenced in October. Carville on an episode of “James Carville Explains” chided young voters for not committing to vote for Democrats, asserting that Republican and conservative control of the country will lead to them not having any rights for the remainder of their lives.

“And then you tell these young people, if you don’t get involved right now in this election, they’re going to be involved in your life for the rest of your freaking life,” Carville said. “If Trump and Roberts and Alito and Gorsuch and Thomas and Leonard Leo and the Heritage Foundation, if they get a hold, there will be no government left, there will be no rights left, you will live under theocracy, you’ll end up with Christian nationalism. But that’s all right, you little fucking 26-year-old, you don’t feel like ‘the election’s important to me. They’re not addressing the issues that I care about.'”
Carville blamed pundits and Democratic messaging for young people not understanding what is at stake in elections.
“So, my advice to tell these young people to get off your motherfucking ass and go vote because you should vote like your entire future and the entire future of this United States depends on it because quite frankly, it does, and that’s not an exaggeration,” Carville added.
“We have people saying, ‘I’m just not into this election, James.’ I think they’re both too old and they’re not speaking to the issues that address me,” Carville said later. “Oh, really? You’re full of shit. Go look at what’s going on around you.”
Carville in late March sounded the alarm about Democrats losing young voters as the party relies on these voters to win elections.
“I’ve been very vocal about this,” he said at the time. “It’s horrifying our numbers among younger voters, particularly younger blacks, younger Latinos … younger people of color. Particularly males. We’re not shedding them, they’re leaving in droves.”
The Democratic strategist also recently warned that he believes if former President Donald Trump wins, the Supreme Court will ban mailing condoms and birth control pills.
