- It’s one thing for politicians to disagree on taxes or foreign policy. That’s just business as usual in Washington. But it’s another thing entirely when they seem to lose their grip on reality itself, making up stories out of thin air to attack their opponents.
Lately, it feels like this has become the main strategy for those who simply can’t accept that President Donald Trump is back in the White House. When you can’t win the debate on facts, you just invent your own. The desperation has become a spectacle, and it’s getting more shameless by the day.
The latest and most jaw-dropping example comes from Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas. During a recent podcast interview, she made a truly unbelievable claim about the horrific assassination attempts against President Trump. According to Crockett, the people who tried to murder the president were actually his own supporters.
From ‘The Post Millennial’:
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) made a series of claims during a podcast released Tuesday, telling comedian Hasan Minhaj that recent acts of political violence—including assassination attempts against Donald Trump—were committed by Trump supporters and that such violence “doesn’t come from Democrats.”…
“It is MAGA, it is specifically MAGA faction… these were Trump supporters, right? As well as this most recent situation, they try to flip it and say ‘the left.’ This doesn’t even make sense, but it’s only MAGA that does this.”
The Facts Tell a Different Story
There’s just one problem with Crockett’s bizarre theory: it’s a complete and total lie. The facts are not secret. Federal investigators have not identified any motive for the first shooter, and they certainly have not classified him as a Trump supporter.
Even worse for Crockett’s fairy tale, the second would-be assassin left a letter. In his own words, Ryan Wesley Routh confirmed it “was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump” and even offered a $150,000 bounty to whoever could “finish the job.” This wasn’t a “MAGA” supporter; this was a man fueled by a sick hatred for our president.
A Pattern of Blame and Division
If you think this was just a simple mistake, think again. This is part of a disturbing pattern for Rep. Crockett. Shortly after the first attempt, she used a House hearing to suggest that Secret Service agents might have had “racial bias” because the shooter was a “young White male.”
Instead of focusing on protecting the president, her first instinct was to inject poisonous racial politics into a national tragedy. She sees everything through a lens of division. Her goal isn’t to find truth; it’s to smear millions of patriotic Americans with the most disgusting lies imaginable.
Spreading dangerous misinformation like this isn’t just bad politics; it’s a profound insult to her office and to the people she represents. A leader unites. A leader tells the truth. Jasmine Crockett does the opposite. Her conduct is a disgrace, and she is utterly unfit to serve in the United States Congress.
Key Takeaways
- Rep. Jasmine Crockett falsely claimed Trump supporters were behind assassination attempts.
- Known facts and DOJ evidence directly contradict her baseless accusations.
- Crockett has a history of using divisive rhetoric instead of focusing on facts.
- Spreading dangerous lies is a disgrace that makes a leader unfit for public office.
