James Carville dismissed the stupid right-wing frenzy over Taylor Swift after conservative figures floated the conspiracy theory that the pop superstar is an operative for the Democrats .

In an interview with CNN s John Berman on Wednesday, the longtime Democratic strategist reacted to clips of Fox News personalities claiming that the Biden administration is locked dead set on harnessing Swifts influence ahead of the election and questioning whether shes alienating her fans as they range in political ideologies.

I dont think theres anything strategic about this, Carville said when asked if theres a worse strategy for Trump and conservatives than attacking Taylor Swift.

I think most of these people are sexually inadequate and they go for all this crazy stuff. And I dont think and theres nothing strategic about something that stupid. Its just real stupidity to believe something like that.

Carville added that Swift appears to be a really nice person and kind of well-raised, noting shes distributed $100,000 bonuses to people that work for her.

Whats there not to like about Ms. Swift? I have no idea. I didnt get the memo, he said.

Do you think itll blow up in their face? Berman asked in regard to the rights attack on Swift. 

If all the stuff hadnt blown up yet, I dont know if their face is blown-uppable, he said. But its massively entertaining to watch people this stupid go public. Honestly, John, I cant get enough of it. I mean, come on. You cant be that dumb, can you?
