Jasmine Crockett Cleverly Burns Trump Without Even Using His Name
HuffPost
The Texas lawmaker hilariously called out Republicans’ hypocrisy during Wednesday’s House Oversight Committee hearing.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) called out President Donald Trump to make a point about the right’s hypocrisy — and she did it in the slickest way possible.
The Republican-led House Oversight Committee dragged four Democratic mayors to Capitol Hill on Wednesday so Republicans could essentially bully them into forcing local law enforcement to do the jobs of federal immigration officials. The committee’s efforts were an obvious ploy to promote Trump’s aggressive mass deportation plan.
But Crockett wasn’t having it, according to a clip that made its way onto X, formerly Twitter. Defending the four mayors, the Texas lawmaker asked them to answer a yes or no question.
“Have any of you been made aware of any immigrant that has had 34 felony convictions… that has still been able to roam in your cities? Anyone?”
Of course, Crockett’s sly question was a hilarious reference to Trump’s 34 felony counts.
