Speakers: Seth Moulton
**SPEAKER_1** (0:00)
You're listening to The Hammer and Nigel Show. So Hammer, James Carville is this old guy, he's once a prominent Democrat strategist, helped Bill Clinton get elected in 92

**SPEAKER_2** (0:12)
Had a cameo in old school, the raging Cajun, James Carville.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:15)
That's right, that's right, that's right. But he's got this aggressive political style, he's combative and blunt, and he's got a severe case. Not only does he criticize people in his own party, the Democrat Party, but he's got a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
He's on record as saying, and I don't want to be cured of my Trump Derangement Syndrome. I want it to take me over. I want more hate of Donald Trump. He's a crazy man.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:43)
He's full Emperor Palpatine.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:46)
That's it. Yeah, that's it.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:48)
Even kind of looks like him a little bit. All you need is the robe.
So he was speaking on his podcast and his YouTube channel about the current situation at the DNC. Spoiler, they're broke. That's the current situation.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:04)
They're a mess.

**SPEAKER_2** (1:05)
The leadership seems to be a little divided. There's a lot of infighting, and they're about $2 million in the hole. So James Carville is calling on the vice chair David Hogg. Now, remember David Hogg? He was one of these kids that was at Parkland when the Marjory Stoneman Douglas shooting took place. Now, he was in a separate building at the time, but it's his claim to fame. He was at school that day, albeit in a different building. And he has used that to become some sort of activist and working his way up through the political ranks. At one point, this little needle wiener said he wanted to start a pillow company to compete with the MyPillow guy, Mike Lindell.
Well, that lasted about two weeks, and he said, screw it, work is hard. So he's been grifting ever since.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:57)
He wants to get rid of everybody's guns.

**SPEAKER_2** (1:59)
He wants to take everybody's guns. He wants to be the new head of the DNC, and it sounds like James Carville is not above it.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:09)
It was a story on a DMC that basically said it's dysfunctional.
It's just difficult to do anything with it, and it's all true. And at the end of the day, who cares? I mean, maybe they want to try to get themselves together. Some of them are lovely people. I mean, they're against Ken Martin. Maybe they ought to figure out a way. Maybe it could be somewhat relevant. I have no idea. If David Hogue wants to take it over, I stop and you go ahead, man. I don't really care.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:40)
You know who else isn't stopping you?
Republicans. Please, please get David Hogue in there. I swear to God, you're a mess right now. Here comes David Hogue. Again, the only thing this guy has ever done in his life is say that he was at school the day an attack happened, albeit in a different building. Other than that, he didn't have the grades to get into the college that he got into, but he was accepted because he's a left-wing activist, and everybody put some money behind him. And now he wants to be the head of the DNC.
I feel like the same way when I hear about socialism. Go for it. Knock yourselves out. It's the gift that keeps on giving to people with common sense, not even Republicans, because some Republicans are dumbasses, too. The people in the middle, the people that are moderates, this type of crap will not fly with them.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:39)
Same with AOC running for president.

**SPEAKER_2** (3:42)
She can raise all the money she wants, and she's a fundraising machine. Yeah, she is. And she'll pick up a few votes. But I don't know if it's enough to win a national general election.
Speaking of the DNC and the mess that they're in right now, even CNN starting to hit the panic button. They had Massachusetts rep Seth Moulton on last night, and they talked about the current situation with their national committee.

**Seth Moulton** (4:09)
Do you think the Democratic National Committee is a mess?
Yes, I do. And months ago, I called on Ken Martin to resign.
The bottom line is that the leadership of the Democratic Party right now is a mess. And this is not the first time they've tried to hide this mess. Remember, they said, Ken Martin said, that they would release an autopsy report on what went wrong in 2024 so that we could turn it around and start winning in 2026 And then he covered that up. So we're covering up all kinds of messes.
