Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas has stated that all the recent violence in the United States is coming from the “MAGA” wing of the Republican party.
Speaking to comedian Hasan Minhaj this week, Crockett said, “Violence doesn’t come from Democrats, just to be clear. Obviously, anyone can be a criminal. But it is MAGA. It is the specifically MAGA faction. I don’t think traditional Republicans are getting engaged in all of this.”
When the topic of the two assassination attempts made against President Donald Trump in 2024 arose, Crockett dismissed both Thomas Matthew Crooks and Ryan Wesley Routh as “Trump supporters.” Authorities have found no motive or discernable political association with Crooks and Routh is known to have supported Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. in the 2020 Democratic primary.
Despite the blanket assessment of the Trump’s base, the representative from Texas’ 30th congressional district conveniently skipped over the multiple attacks on Tesla dealerships aimed at punishing Elon Musk, and the recent violence and shootings at ICE detention facilities in Texas and Oregon. During the Black Lives Matter at least 25 people were killed in the protests that plagued the country in the spring and summer of 2020.
