James Carville is sounding alarm bells after footage resurfaced of "Squad" member Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) ranting against White men, Fox News reported. The Democratic Party strategist says Omar and her ilk "are more trouble than they're worth" for the party.
In 2018, Omar made a racially charged assertion against White men while speaking to Al Jazeera. "Our country should be more fearful of White men because they are causing most of the deaths within this country," Omar claimed.
"We should be profiling, monitoring, and creating policies to fight the radicalization of White men," Omar asserted. The video was recently reshared throughout social media, including on X under the Libs of TikTok account.

While speaking at the Sir Harry Evans Investigative Journalism Summit in London, Carville acknowledged just how terrible Omar is for the Democratic Party. "Ilhan Omar says that White men are responsible for most of the deaths in the United States," Carville reiterated.
"So let me get this straight, 69% of the people — why I’m stuck on that number, I don’t know — but 69% of the people going to vote are White. Of that, 48.5 are males," he added.
"So, I don’t know, my rough math is 33%? That’s a lot of pissed-off 33% of people that vote, and that’s a smart strategy?" Carville went on.
"And there are people that agree with her! There are people that actually agree with her!" Carville said incredulously.
"And I think it’s, honestly, I think these people are more trouble than they’re worth," he added. Indeed, Omar recently went viral with another offensive move after she told Myles Morell from the Daily Caller News Foundation to "f--- off."
Omar is no stranger to controversy and making enemies, but Vice President J.D. Vance was particularly incensed by Omar's remarks. "This isn’t just sick; it’s actually genocidal language," Vance said on social media.
"What a disgrace this person is," he added. After receiving such criticism, Omar doubled down on her remarks in a statement to Fox News Digital and upped the ante.
"In this nearly 8yr old clip, I am referring to the rise of white nationalism in an annual report issued by the Anti-Defamation League that said White supremacists were responsible for 78 percent of ‘extremist-related murders.' PS you should look up what ‘genocidal’ actually means when you’re actively supporting a genocide taking place in Gaza," Omar said.
Besides her diatribe against White men, Omar is also often fond of making antisemitic remarks. In fact, Omar has been censured by her colleagues for making offensive remarks against Jewish people.
Omar is a lawmaker who is supposed to represent the people who voted for her in Minnesota. Instead, she represents the worst kind of bigotry and hatred for others, and Carville is right that it will be Democrats' undoing.
