Political strategist James Carville had some choice words for former GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley over her backing of former President Donald J. Trump.

On a weekend when polls are showing that the post-Biden coup surge of support for Vice President Kamala Harris is now evaporating, Democrats were heartened that their overt fascism and warmongering has attracted the support of Dick and Liz Cheney who both endorsed the party’s DEI nominee.

Carville ripped the former South Carolina governor and US ambassador to the UN as “spineless” and “gutless” during a Sunday morning appearance on Jen Psaki’s MSNBC show where he gushed about the Dems’ onboarding of the Cheneys.

Lounging in a chair with a shelf full of liquor bottles in the background, the 79-year-old “Ragin’ Cajun” expressed confidence that the Cheney endorsements could appeal to anti-Trump Republicans in some areas and took a shot at Haley’s remarks during her Sunday morning appearance on another network.

“I saw Nikki Haley on another network this morning, oh my God,” he told Psaki. “And she was talking about how much she loved Taiwan and someone pointed out Trump, said, I don’t care about Taiwan, it’s 65 miles away. Let China do what it wants. And then she started talking about Afghanistan, does that woman have any courage at all, because if she does, it’s not particularly evident to anybody.”

“No, she’s not delivered on the courage quotient over the last couple months,” clucked the host.

“I don’t know if she’s more spineless than gutless, but one of the two certainly apply to her,” Carville said.

The former candidate sat down with CBS News’ Margaret Brennan on “Face the Nation” where she was asked about the GOP nominee.

“I don’t agree with Trump 100 percent of the time,” she said. “I don’t have to like him or agree with him 100 percent of the time to know that life for Americans would be better under the policies where we had strong immigration, where we had law and order, where we had an economy where we could look at opportunities, where we’ve got national security that is strong. I don’t need to sit there and like someone to decide those policies are better.”

She also told Brennan that she’s on “standby” if Trump needs her help.

At one time the great hope of Democrats to take Trump out in the primaries, Haley’s campaign never seemed to catch fire with anyone outside of television studios and newsrooms and Democrats in open primary states as she stubbornly held out despite a string of brutal losses, including an embarrassing drubbing in her home state of South Carolina.

Haley finally acknowledged the insurmountable task of trying to unseat a popular former president with a rock-solid base of support and ended her campaign.

Once she did drop out, she gave her support to Trump and the Republican Party, unlike the Cheneys who would rather see Harris destroy the Supreme Court, confiscate guns, jail political enemies, and impose communist-style grocery price controls than see their precious war in Ukraine come to an end.

Carville is credited with being the architect of Bill Clinton’s shocking 1992 win over President George H.W. Bush with his bumper sticker slogan “It’s the economy stupid” being the difference maker.
