Carville Declares Trump’s Administration Has Collapsed
Democratic strategist James Carville insists President Donald Trump’s administration has collapsed—sooner than he expected.
A Bold Prediction Comes True
In January, after Trump returned to office, Carville predicted his administration would crumble within 30 days, particularly in public opinion. He pointed to Trump’s approval ratings, which plummeted from the low 50s to the upper 30s, as proof that his forecast was accurate.
Signs of a Failing Administration
By the end of the month, Carville declared the collapse had already happened. He cited major incidents, including the “Signal-gate” leak of war plans, which exposed the administration’s internal chaos. While acknowledging his timing was slightly off, he joked that Trump should declare April Fool’s Day a national holiday to reflect the disorder.
Polls vs. Election Results
Although some polls showed Trump’s approval rating rebounding, Carville dismissed them. He argued that election results, not poll numbers, ultimately determine political success.
