Carville Trashes Bernie Sanders: "I'm Not Interested In Being In A Cult"
Democratic strategist James Carville warned of the "end of days" if Democrats nominate Bernie Sanders as their candidate for president in 2020.
"There's a certain part of the Democratic party that wants us to be a cult. I'm not interested in being in a cult," Carville said Monday on 'Morning Joe.' "Some people in this country want a revolution. They want disruption. They scream at people and bully people. And I don't know how you win an election: 78 years old, screaming in a microphone about the revolution but you gotta give people an alternative."
Carville likened Sanders' progressivism to that of Jeremy Corbyn, leader of the British Labour Party.
“The only thing, the only thing between the United States and the abyss is the Democratic Party. That’s it. If we go the way of the British Labour Party, if we nominate Jeremy Corbyn, it’s going to be the end of days," Carville said.
"So I am scared to death, I really am," Carville said.
