Political guru James Carville warned that any Republicans cooperating with President Donald Trump will end up being viewed similarly to how Nazi ‘collaborators’ after WWII. 

Carville, a former advisor to Bill Clinton, said Trump supporters like Laura Loomer will face retribution after the current president’s reign is over and will be humiliated and punished like the Nazis.

‘They didn’t take very kindly to the collaborators,’ he said on on his Politicon podcast on Friday. ‘No, it was not a very pretty sight in the streets of Paris.’

His statement refers to the aftermath of the liberation of Paris from German forces in 1944, when French Nazi collaborators were rounded up to face public retribution.

Women who were deemed Nazi colluders also had their heads shaved and were publicly shamed for their participation in the war.

‘I’m not saying that these people should be placed in pajamas and have their head shaved, marched down Pennsylvania Avenue and spit on,’ he added. ‘I’m not saying that, but I’m saying that that did happen.’ 

He branded law firms and companies that are ‘sucking up’ to Trump ‘a pack of grifter’.

‘They’re stupid, they’re anti-patriotic,’ he fumed. ‘How disgraced must these law firms feel now, how disgraced must these companies that are sucking up to him that are giving him tens of millions of dollars for access… do you know what’s going to happen? Do you know how this ends?’

The use of the term ‘collaborators’ is especially inflammatory as it has connotations of collusion with the Nazis. 

‘These people betrayed the French nation in the same way that I think that these law firms and these giant corporate conglomerates are betraying the United States,’ Carville said. 

‘Etch their names in the tablet of history for being some of the greatest traitors appeasers that we’ve seen in the history of our great country.’ 

He encouraged Democrats to wait it out and ‘keep a list of collaborators and traitors that have exhibited extreme coward-ness in the face of the most dangerous domestic enemy this country has faced since the Civil War.’ 

The Trump Administration has pressured several law firms that have connections to Democratic policies or anti-Trump causes. 

Trump banned Perkins Coie’s employees from accessing government buildings in an executive order and called for the firm’s government contracts end. The law firm sued Trump over the order. 

A New York-based firm – Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP – agreed to pledge $40 million of legal support toward the administration after Trump pressured them. 

Carville lamented that he isn’t calling for the humiliation treatment of Trump’s collaborators at the end of his term, but did suggest a ‘Hall of Fame’ where the collaborators would be publicly named for all to see. 

‘Feel free to make nominations,’ he joked. 

Recently, Carville declared Trump’s presidency has already collapsed – barely 80 days into the Republican leader’s historic return to the White House.

Carville made the bombshell claim during an appearance on CNN, telling host Michael Smerconish that he was surprised by just how quickly the Trump administration had in his view, fallen apart.

‘I had no idea. I thought I’d have to wait longer for the imminent collapse. It happened even faster than I could imagine,’ Carville said, with his trademark bayou drawl.

Carville has spent decades dissecting the highs and lows of American politics and seen plenty of erratic behavior from politicians.

But the ‘Ragin Cajun’s’ latest comments were rooted in his February New York Times op-ed, in which he advised Democrats to essentially play dead in order to bide their time and allow the Trump administration to implode under the weight of its own dysfunction.

‘Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is retreat on the immediate battlefield – and advance in another direction,’ he wrote.

‘It won’t take long. Public support for this administration will fall through the floorboard. It’s already happening.’
