Former Bill Clinton adviser James Carville has long been one of the Democratic Party’s most outspoken and controversial voices.

Over the weekend, however, he engaged in some rhetoric about President Donald Trump that even some of his allies likely considered to be beyond the pale.

In the wake of a contentious White House meeting between Trump and Ukraine leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Carville wondered if the display might have been evidence that the president has a sexually transmitted disease.

As the Daily Beast reported:

Describing the Republican president as a “fat f—ing slob” with a “beached whale body” on the latest edition of his Politicon podcast, Carville speculated that a purported rash of red blotches on Trump’s hands could be a sign of syphilis that has addled the president’s brain.

“When you see that condition, the first thing that you suspect is syphilis,” Carville raged, noting that the condition causes brain damage in its later stages. “That boy ain’t right.”

In some historic cases, the disease has been known to manifest in displays of erratic, volatile, and violent behavior among patients.

“I don’t mean madness like, ‘I’m mad at you, you’re mad at me.’ I’m talking about madness like, King George III kind of madness,” Carville said. “I’m not a medical doctor, but I think we should revisit the possibility of a syphilis diagnosis.”

When conservatives made observations about Joe Biden’s obvious cognitive decline, they were lambasted by the left for allegedly trying to diagnose him with dementia.

Now that Carville is giving oxygen to this very specific rumor about Trump, he is facing an onslaught of outrage via social media:

The Daily Caller also covered Carville’s latest wild tirade:

“What was the cause of this? A man who’s obviously for a long time been in decline, who’s fat, who doesn’t sleep at night, who eats nothing but hamburgers and crap, who’s almost 80 years old. There’s a tendency to just ascribe it to the normal process of being overweight and having a bad diet and lack of sleep and accumulation of age. But I’m not sure that explains something about it today. I’m a guy, I like to ask questions. I like to speculate on things. That’s why we have this YouTube channel,” Carville said.

“That’s why you viewers and listeners, that’s why we get along as well as we do. I want to see the possibility that maybe I had a point considerably earlier than this when I pointed out on this very channel where Trump had red splotches on his hand, which I was told by any number of medical professionals that when you see that condition, the first thing that you suspect is syphilis,” Carville added.

Reports of a bruise on Trump’s hand surfaced Monday after his meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, sparking controversy online over the cause of the injury. However, in a statement to Fox News Digital, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the bruise was a result of Trump meeting “more Americans and shak[ing] their hands on a daily basis than any other president in history.”

Carville went on to make claims about the president’s condition, accusing First Lady Melania Trump of avoiding the White House due to Trump’s “madness.”
