‘I Can’t Sleep!’ James Carville Says He Has ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’ and It’s a ‘Horrific Consuming Disease’

 

James Carville admitted he has a gnarly case of “Trump Derangement Syndrome” that has turned into a full-blown “obsession” that consumes his every waking moment and sabotages his sleep schedule.

The veteran Democratic strategist talked about his raging case of TDS in a searing rant against President Donald Trump in a video posted Tuesday on YouTube.

“I got it, and I want it, and I want it to get worse,” Carville said. “If I could take a pill that would help me hate that motherf*cker more and obsess on him more, I would take that pill!”

Carville said his battle with this “horrific consuming disease” shouldn’t be a surprise, and not just because he’s the former campaign guru for Bill Clinton. The “Ragin’ Cajun” said there are “millions” of Americans who feel the same exact way as he does — in particular, that Trump is a “criminal of the first order.”

He said he and other TDS-afflicted Americans are actually the sane ones relative to their fellow citizens, because they are reacting rationally to Trump’s nation-threatening second term.

“We can’t think of anything else, you understand that? If you were in the middle of World War II or the Civil War or the bubonic plague, what the f*ck else you gonna think about?! Nothin’!

Carville continued, “I hate the son of a b*tch, I hate what he’s doing to this country, I’m obsessed with it. I can’t sleep at night.”

His diatribe comes one day after he warned women who work for Trump to jump ship ASAP. If they don’t, he said Trump is going to toss them out like a “used condom,” which he said was obvious following Katie Zacharia’s  five-day stint as the White House press secretary.

He kept going in the clip, accusing Trump of being a turncoat and “siding” with Russia’s Vladimir Putin.

“There is some kind of problem with Trump’s loyalty to the United States, flat out,” he said. “He does not like this country, he doesn’t like our laws, he doesn’t like our Constitution, he doesn’t like the people who live in this country, he thinks we’re all dirty and sloppy.”

Carville closed the video by saying he expects his TDS to go away, once the Republicans are smoked by the Democrats in the midterms.

“I got a disease, I like the disease, and I’m gonna keep it and I hope I get rid of it sometime around oh, I don’t know, 22:00 hours, three November, 2026,” he said.
