A Democratic Party strategist has said the Trump administration could be in its final days as he argued that Elon Musk is damaging their popularity.
Political consultant James Carville has recently been rather confident in his predictions of Donald Trumpâs White House team being about to crumble.
He is so confident, in fact, that he stated that the Democrats donât need to do much more than âplay possumâ and watch the situation unfold.
The 80-year-old author recently said the whole thing could come crumbling down in as little as 30 days.
Carville has now issued another prediction, this time involving billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk and highlighting an apparent negative impact he has had on the Trump camp.

Speaking to Chris Cuomo on Monday, he said that Musk – who oversees the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) – will âbe the greatest generator, let me say this very specifically, the greatest generator of Democratic turnout ever, more than Barack Obamaâ.
He added: âMusk will turn out more Democrats than Obama could, and I understand the gravity of that statement, but if he keeps going, thatâs whatâs going to happen.â
When Cuomo asked for why this was, Carville explained he has recently seen data that suggests it is the case.
He continued: âI was privy to some data that in a very critical state, and the Musk stuff is like nothing Iâve ever seen in the history of polling. Like, nothing. And weâre a month into the game.â

However, the strategist didnât go into more detail about the data.
This echoes a similar sentiment he said when he spoke to Mediaiteâs Dan Abrams about Trumpâs falling approval and how it is beneficial to Democrats.
He said: âWeâre in the midst of a collapse. This is the lowest approvalânot even closeâthat any president has ever had at a comparable time.”
Carville continued to say Democrats simply need to âhold fireâ because in six weeks things will be âeasy pickingsâ.

As you can imagine, Trump hasnât taken the questions surrounding his popularity very well.
Taking to his own social media platform, Truth Social, the president hit back saying he had the ‘best polling numbers’ he’s ever had before calling Carville a ‘loser’.
He continued: âThe Democrats, run by broken down losers like James Carville, whose weak of mind and body, are going crazy, and just donât know what to do,â Trump wrote. âThey have lost their confidence and spirit – They have lost their minds!â
