Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville<\/a> is sounding the alarm regarding one of New York City\u2019s congressional primary winners, calling her socialist views a “bridge too far.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

In an interview with Fox News\u2019 Kayleigh McEnany on “Saturday in America,” Carville blasted Darializa Avila Chevalier just days after her upset victory over incumbent Representative Adriano Espaillat in the Big Apple\u2019s 13th congressional District.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I don’t think that the congressional Democrats should seat her as a member of the Democratic Party \u2014 she actually describes herself as a democratic socialist,” Carville said. “I don’t have anything in common with someone that says that they’re against interracial dating or doesn’t want to have any incarceration for convicted felons.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Carville argued that, if elected, Democrats should allow Chevalier, who was backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani<\/a>, to serve as a democratic socialist \u2014 instead of absorbing her into the party.<\/p>\n

“You can’t kick her out of Congress, she was voted [in],” Carville said. “But she doesn’t have to be<\/a> in a Democratic caucus.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

He then pointed to the wide definition of socialism<\/a> throughout the United States and other countries, adding that he is more aligned with the traditional side of the Democratic Party.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“These are the kind of Democrats that I want to help and be a part of the same party,” Carville said. “I don’t have anything in common with Ms. Chevalier, and I really don’t want to be in the same party she’s in.”<\/p>\n

The veteran strategist added that Chevalier\u2019s strident views could be a bit too far left for the majority of the party.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I just can’t see how she can be part of the same coalition that we’re all<\/a> part of. And I understand that in a coalition, you have to have a lot of slack in your line because not everybody’s going to agree with me.”<\/p>\n

“But this is a bridge too far<\/a>. That’s the only way I can put it \u2014 and a bridge I don’t want to cross. I think a lot of Democrats feel the same way that I do.”<\/p>\n

McEnany went on to point to several previous incidents in which Chevalier has recently come under fire \u2014 including now-deleted social media posts in which she blasted former President Joe Biden<\/a> and said she used the American flag as a napkin to wipe her hands.<\/p>\n

“It’s wild,” Carville told McEnany. “You don’t need to convince me. That’s one thing that you and I are in the same place, I promise you.”<\/p>\n

Carville also pointed to several congressional Democrats \u2014 including Sen. John Fetterman<\/a>, D-Pa. \u2014 who have spoken out to say they are not aligned with Chevalier\u2019s views or those of other Democratic socialist candidates.<\/p>\n

“I think the Democrats need to stand up and say, \u2018This is not who we are. We do not determine who you can date or not date. That is your own business,\u2019 Carville said, pointing to Chevalier\u2019s past remarks against interracial relationships.<\/p>\n

“That’s not my business. That\u2019s never been any of my business, it\u2019s certainly not now,” he added. ” And I just think that that’s not why most people are Democrats. We’re Democrats because we don’t hate anybody.”<\/p>\n
