Democratic strategist James Carville on Friday dehumanized former President Donald Trump just 12 days after a second assassination attempt on his life.
Trump experienced a second assassination attempt on Sept. 15 when officials noticed Ryan Wesley Routh’s rifle barrel emerging out of shrubbery near where the former president was golfing in West Palm Beach, Florida. Carville, in a YouTube video, said Trump does not deserve any level of “humanity or respect” and asserted that while the former president is “human in one sense, in another he’s not.”
WATCH:
“I think humans, just as a result of their humanity, have some brand of some expectation that they’ll be treated as human beings … I guess Trump is human in one sense, in another sense he’s not,” Carville said. “I really think he is such an odious and despicable man that he should not be accorded the most basic courtesies that one human being would extend to another human being. I think he is a grotesque, immoral man who is incapable of understanding anything or anybody that’s not him. And I’ll just be very honest, I cannot stand the son of a bitch.”
“We’re not going to accord this rotten mothaf-cka one iota of humanity or respect because he has given up any idea that he should be afforded this,” he added later in the video.
Federal prosecutors on Tuesday charged Routh with attempting to assassinate a major political candidate after previously charging him with two firearm possession counts.
Other Democrats also have not tamped down their anti-Trump rhetoric since the attempt.
For instance, U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said on Wednesday that Americans should “extinguish” Trump from politics “for good,” while Democratic Del. Stacey E. Plaskett, who represents the United States Virgin Islands, appeared to compare Trump to Adolf Hitler during a Wednesday hearing, saying the former president is a “would-be Führer.”
Moreover, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton two days after the attempt repeatedly characterized the former president as “dangerous” in the span of a few minutes while appearing on “The Rachel Maddow Show.”
“We’re not going back to … what he failed to do to protect American lives during Covid, we’re not going back to the romance with dictators that puts innocent lives at risk and America’s security in danger,” Clinton said. “We can’t go back and give this very dangerous man another chance to do harm to our country and the world.”
