Overview
- Democratic strategist James Carville said in a video posted this week that he has not called President Trump the 'Antichrist' because 'the Antichrist would be smarter than him.'
- Carville, who has described himself as having 'Trump Derangement Syndrome,' argued he has been restrained compared with commentators like Tucker Carlson and writer Rod Dreher who have used the label.
- Federal prosecutors charged Cole Tomas Allen, 31, with attempting to assassinate the president, and he has made his first court appearance.
- White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said recent violence stems from a 'systemic demonization' of Trump and his supporters by Democrats, media figures and some outlets.
- The dispute follows uproar over an AI image that cast Trump in Christ-like robes, which drew rebukes from conservative Christians and deepened rifts among right-leaning media voices.
