In a scathing attack on the pundit class, former Democratic strategist James Carville has argued that President Donald Trump's decision to invade Venezuela was nothing more than a desperate attempt to shift attention away from the ongoing release of the Epstein Files and rising healthcare costs.
Carville, known for his sharp tongue, took aim at television hosts and lawmakers who were frantically trying to decipher Trump's motives behind the strike on Venezuela. "It's all about Epstein!" he exclaimed, suggesting that the president's objective is not to improve America's foreign policy or interests, but rather to divert attention from the mounting revelations about the wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein.
Carville believes that Trump launched the attack as a last-ditch effort to avoid a complete revolt among his base over the continued release of Epstein-related documents. "In his reptilian survival way, he says 'I'm going to do this and draw attention away from Epstein,'" Carville said in a video for Politicon.
The president's actions have been met with skepticism by many, particularly in Latin America, where he has been accused of trying to undermine the democratic governments of countries such as Mexico, Cuba, and Colombia. Trump's threats towards these leaders have sparked widespread criticism, including from Colombian President Gustavo Petro, who has condemned the strikes on his country as an invasion.
Carville's assertion that Trump is driven by a desire to conceal the truth about Epstein highlights the perception among many that the president is more interested in protecting his own reputation than in serving the public interest. As Carville so bluntly put it, "Think beyond just the front of your nose!"

. The Epstein Files have been out for a while now, and Trump's reaction seems really off 
. I mean, what's up with this sudden interest in Venezuela? It just feels like another distraction tactic from the prez 
.
. Threatening leaders and then blaming it on "regime change" or whatever? Come on, man! That's just weak sauce 
. I'm not saying Carville is right, but at least he's calling out the hypocrisy 
.
. One thing's for sure though: Trump's got some serious 'splainin' to do 
.
Trump's actions are super shady and he's got a history of using crazy distractions to shift attention away from his own problems. The Epstein Files thing is getting some major attention right now, so it makes sense that he'd try to do something big to take the spotlight off it.
he does make some valid points about Trump's motivations. The problem is, we'll probably never know for sure what's really going on behind the scenes in that weird, twisted world of his.
Just don't expect me to buy into it without some serious evidence, haha!
.
. And let's not forget all the other skeletons in his closet... poor guy can't catch a break 
. Still, I don't think it's just about him being reckless – there are some seriously shady players involved here 
this guy is like totally crazy! I mean I get why he's trying to deflect attention but come on invading another country? That's not a clever move at all, that's like, super reckless 
. It's so easy to spin it around as a distraction from Epstein but let's be real, Trump is just trying to cover his own tracks 
. I don't buy the 'reptilian survival way' nonsense, sounds like just another attempt to deflect 
. This whole thing is just shady 
and I'm calling BS on Carville

I'm not surprised by this news at all... think about it, our politicians are always trying to shift attention away from something 
. This whole thing is making me feel like we're living in a soap opera 
, but seriously, it's time to take a closer look at our leaders' motivations 
.
