Auburn basketball coach accuses Carville of spreading ‘hatred’ with statements about Jewish donors
Auburn men’s basketball coach Bruce Pearl sharply criticized Democratic strategist James Carville on Friday over
his recent statements about wealthy Jewish donors who have left the Democratic Party.
During an appearance on Fox News Channel, the accomplished coach and outspoken Israel advocate ripped Carville for saying earlier this week that wealthy Jewish people were not leaving the Democratic Party because of antisemitism, but rather because they just want a “f—— tax cut” from the Republicans.
“When you say that wealthy Jews don’t want to pay their taxes, that just commits to the Jew hatred and the things that are out there,” Pearl told anchor Bill Hemmer on “America’s Newsroom,” after shaking his head when the show played Carville’s remarks.
Carville made the comments during the Wednesday episode of his “Politics War Room” podcast, bashing Jewish donors who decided to stop giving to Democratic politicians and instead donate to President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign after seeing the rash of antisemitism that has sprung up on college campuses and that some Democratic luminaries have supported.
Bruce Pearl slams James Carville for ‘antisemitic trope.’
