Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) is one of the most toxic politicians on the political stage today, and it turns out Democrats love her for it.
Crockett most recently made waves when she referred to Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) as “Governor Hot Wheels.” More specifically, Crockett said, “Y’all know we got Governor Hot Wheels down there, come on now! And the only thing hot about him is that he is a hot ass mess, honey.”
Abbott, of course, was paralyzed in 1984 and has used a wheelchair ever since.
Crockett’s inauthentic act aside, Democratic politicians and their liberal media allies would meltdown over a Republican mocking someone for being disabled. Instead, Crockett’s audience at the Human Rights Campaign (a loony left-wing activist group) laughed along with her. Crockett said she was referring to Abbott’s policy of busing illegal immigrants to Democratic cities, which was an obvious lie even before it was revealed she posted and reposted similar insults about Abbott’s condition in the past.
Crockett’s history of ugly statements extends beyond mocking disabilities. She has taken over as the leading Democratic race-baiter in Congress. She said Hispanic voters who support President Donald Trump are people who can “barely vote” and have a “slave mentality.” She also said black men who didn’t support former Vice President Kamala Harris were misogynists and that she didn’t trust white women, implying they were racist and self-hating for not supporting Harris.

Despite only being in her second term in the House, Crockett has compiled a long record of hateful, inflammatory, and unprofessional comments. She also happens to be a hot commodity in the Democratic Party right now. She’s a fixture on Democrat-friendly airwaves, served as a national co-chairwoman on Harris’s campaign, and is frequently a featured speaker at events such as the one this week. No single Democrat has been boosted by liberal media and the Democratic Party’s activist base during Trump’s second term more than Crockett.
Crockett could have skipped the excuses over mocking Abbott’s paralysis. But Democrats have already shown that they want more of her hateful, toxic rhetoric front and center. The Democratic Party has chosen toxicity as its path forward.
