James Carville, who predicted Harris win, says Trump admin collapsed 'even faster' than he thought possible

During a recent appearance on CNN host Michael Smerconish's program, Carville declared that President Donald Trump's second term had become a failure sooner than he predicted it would. 

"I had no idea. I thought I'd have to wait longer for the imminent collapse. It happened even faster than I could imagine," the former Bill Clinton adviser said.

Smerconish brought up the topic, mentioning Carville's recent prediction in The New York Times that the Trump administration would fall apart.  In a February op-ed, Carville advised the Democratic Party to play dead and wait for the collapse. 

Smerconish questioned Carville, wondering why it matters that Trump may be losing some approval numbers, if Democratic approval ratings are at some of their lowest points in modern history. 

The strategist countered by saying that the left can take advantage of the moment either way. "Well, first of all, this is a glorious opportunity for the Democratic Party to redefine itself, to take this as what it is, and apparently some people in the news media are not - it's the gravest crisis we've had in the United States in the last 80 years."

Carville continued, saying the Trump administration represents the "end of the rule of law."

"We're looking at nincompoops and blockheads and buffoons running the country," he added.
