James Carville Floats Wild Theory On What He Thinks Links The Two Attacks

Democratic strategist James Carville said Thursday evening on CNN that he believes the terrorist attack in New Orleans and the blown-up Cybertruck in Las Vegas are connected, as both suspects have some type of “sexual problem.”

Early Wednesday morning, around 3 a.m., 42-year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar used his truck to plow through a crowd celebrating New Year’s festivities on Bourbon Street, killing at least 14 people and injuring dozens of others. Later, around 8:40 a.m. on Wednesday, 37-year-old Matthew Alan Livelsberger allegedly shot himself in his Tesla Cybertruck before it exploded, injuring several people nearby.

While some have questioned the connection between the two incidents, President Joe Biden said there has been “nothing to report” on the connection. Officials said they continue to investigate any possible links. On “Anderson Cooper 360,” CNN host Anderson Cooper said to Carville that the two suspects in the attacks had military backgrounds, adding “it shouldn’t be shocking, but it is still shocking.”

“The thing is, particularly guy in Las Vegas, a highly trained soldier, but the crazy guy from Houston was in the Army for nine years. I mean, I’ve been in the military. The one thing you do is you learn how to deal with explosives, if you wanted to. Fortunately for us, 99.99% of them don’t do that,” Carville said.

“But at the end of the day, this is my theory, and I’m going to be right 80% of the time. These people have some kind of sexual problem. I think that most of them are incel. I’ll be wrong 20%, I’ll say that, but I’m not going to be wrong much more than that, if you dig into it,” Carville said.
