During an appearance on CNN on Saturday morning, Democratic campaign strategist James Carville fired back at Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) after he accused President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris of siccing the Justice Department on their enemies.

With CNN host Michael Smerconish acting as moderator, Carville could be seen in split-screen ready to fire back as the MAGA lawmaker as he attempted to dismiss Trump’s threat of “retribution” if he is re-elected.

Defending Trump, Donalds told the panel, “If you’re going to talk about jailing opponents that something that has come out of the Harris Biden administration. Because last time I checked it was the Department of Justice by their special counsels that have been trying to jail Donald Trump on a myriad of issues.”

As Carville grimaced, the GOP lawmaker continued, “When Donald Trump was president he didn’t turn the Department of Justice on his political rivals–– he did not do that. If you’re going to talk about the comments about whether the National Guard is deployed, remember the question in the context. If it was if there’s unrest in the country post-election a post-inauguration if Donald Trump is to be victorious would he use the National Guard to protect citizens? His answer was yes he would. I think that this is where the narrative building has been grossly mistaken and misleading to the American public to bring emotions into our elections where the emotions simply don’t need to exist.”

Given a chance to respond, Carville shot back, “I can’t let something go unsaid to the congressman. Maybe I dreamed this, I’m getting old so my memory is not good. I do think I remember Trump saying he would jail his political opponents and then his flunkies went out and said, ‘No, that’s not what he really meant,’ and then he came back and said, ‘Yes, that’s what I really mean.'”

He then added, “His own director of national intelligence thinks that he’s compromised, the Kremlin has blackmail on him. For god’s sake, let’s talk about the apostrophe, because that’s what’s coming down today. I don’t know if there are hidden Trump voters or not. The Constitution of the United States of America is on the ballot this coming Tuesday and I think it’s time for people to start acting like it. That’s my own personal opinion.”
