​Jasmine Crockett Epically Rips GOP With Blunt Comparison Of Trump And Abrego Garcia

The Democratic Rep. called out Republicans on MSNBC for claiming they want to "keep us safe" while also backing convicted criminal Donald Trump as their "fearless leader."

During a Sunday appearance on MSNBC, Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett spoke about the administration of Republican President Donald Trump refusing to follow a court order.

In a case that went to the United States Supreme Court, Trump was ordered to facilitate Kilmar Abrego Garcia's release from the CECOT prison in El Salvador and to return him to the United States.


In an attempt to curry public favor, Trump, his administration, and Republican lawmakers have painted the Maryland father as a dangerous criminal—without supporting evidence.

Representative Crockett called out the absurdity of anyone among the MAGA faithful objecting to rumored criminal activity from a man with zero indictments or convictions when they took no exception to the real thing.

Representative Crockett stated:

"We know that [the Trump administration] admitted that they were wrong [to abduct Kilmar Abrego Garcia]. Now they're trying to double back and say, well, he's this terrible person and all this kind of stuff."
"But here's the reality. As far as I'm concerned, he's a lot less criminal than the person that's sitting in the White House, because last time I checked, he doesn’t have any criminal convictions."
"I don't even think he has any outstanding cases versus the guy that still had cases pending when he was sworn in on January20th. And also has 34 felony convictions."
"So, listen, I don't want to hear anything from the Republican Party about how they're trying to keep us safe when their fearless leader is actually the biggest criminal thus far that we have seen."
"Because I haven't seen anybody with a rap sheet that looks like the President's."

People agreed with Representative Crockett's objections to GOP hypocrisy.

Jasmine Crockett (D-Tex.) called out Rep. lawmakers for talking tough on law and order but refusing to hold Trump to that same standard. “As far as I’m concerned, Kilmar Garcia is a lot less criminal than [Trump] ...he doesn’t have any criminal convictions; [but Trump ] has 34 felony convictions.” 👍

Crockett's words apparently struck a nerve. MAGA minions on social media are citing "Trump Derangement Syndrome" and calling for Crockett to be arrested.

AOC Has Mic Drop Response To MAGA Republicans Who Try To Mock 'Democratic Priorities'

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez issued a powerful rebuke against President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement, pointing out why mocking things like affordable housing and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as "Democrat priorities" ultimately hurts Republicans.

Ocasio-Cortez, speaking during a CNN town hall alongside Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders, accused Republicans of refusing to work to end the government shutdown, stressing that the country’s health care system could collapse if Republicans refuse to meet Democrats’ demands in negotiations.

GOP Rep. Blames Coordinated 'Ruse' After Swastika Image Is Seen Displayed In His Office

Ohio Republican Representative Dave Taylor demanded an investigation after a swastika image was found on display in his Washington, D.C., office, and blamed it on a "targeted" "ruse."

Politico obtained a photo from a virtual meeting showing a distorted image of the American flag—its red and white lines altered into the shape of a swastika— pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, a staffer for Taylor. Beside it hung a pocket Constitution and a congressional calendar. Elia’s involvement in the incident, if any, remains unclear.
