Trump Slams Progressive Left’s Latest Poster Child, Calling Crocket “Low-IQ”
Trump Slams Progressive Left’s Latest Poster Child, Calling Crocket “Low-IQ”

It seems the Left is always auditioning for its next superstar, doesn’t it? They’re constantly on the lookout for someone, anyone, who can shout the loudest, sling the most outrageous insults, and generally make a spectacle of themselves. Enter Representative Jasmine Crockett, a Democrat from Texas, who appears to be gunning for the title of “Most Unhinged Progressive Icon.” And boy, is she giving it her all, though mostly, she’s just making a fool of herself and embarrassing the already questionable standards of her party.

If you need proof, just look at her recent advice to college graduates. Instead of inspiring words about hard work or the American dream, Crockett decided to tell these young minds to “know how to use a chair”—not for sitting, mind you, but apparently as a weapon, referencing a public brawl. Yes, really.

It’s this kind of “leadership” that makes you wonder what they’re teaching in civics class these days. But don’t worry, President Donald Trump, never one to let such antics go unnoticed, had a few choice words to put Ms. Crockett squarely in her place.

The Presidential Label That Sticks

During an interview, President Trump didn’t mince words when assessing Crockett’s rise within the Democratic ranks. He pinpointed her as an example of the “disarray” plaguing the party, especially when some are bizarrely touting her as its future.

From ‘The Post Millennial’:

“They have a new person named Crockett. I watched her speak the other day. She’s definitely a low-IQ person,” Trump said. “They said she’s the future of the party. I said you have to be kidding. I don’t know what they’re going to do.”

And just like that, with a typically blunt Trumpian assessment, Crockett was branded. No matter how many honorary doctorates she claims to receive or how many carefully crafted, alliterative insults she hurls, that “low-IQ” label, delivered with the casual confidence only Trump possesses, has a way of cutting through the noise. It’s a simple, direct hit that resonates because, frankly, it captures the sheer absurdity of her public persona.

From Honorary Doctorates to Hints of Violence

Predictably, Crockett didn’t take kindly to the President’s observation. She dashed off to X (formerly Twitter) to fire back, claiming that while she was busy “getting another honorary doctorate & delivering the commencement address,” the “diabolical delusional demented dumb Don was busy trying to challenge your IQ, again.” One has to wonder if that honorary doctorate came with a course in mature responses to criticism.

Her commencement address, as reported by the Daily Caller, was indeed memorable, but perhaps not for the reasons she’d hope. Beyond the bizarre chair-wielding advice, she also told graduates, “Let me tell you that we know how to use a chair, whether we’re pulling it up or we’re doing something else with it.” This, coupled with her assertions that calling someone a “DEI hire” is the modern equivalent of a racial slur and that “Jim Crow never died,” paints a picture of someone deeply invested in stoking division and grievance, rather than offering any real solutions or, dare we say, intelligent discourse.

A Rising Star of Rudeness?

This isn’t new territory for Crockett. She has a history of “outspoken and outlandish comments,” as The Post Millennial politely puts it. She’s the one who infamously mocked Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s use of a wheelchair by calling him “Governor Hot Wheels”—a remark she later, and unconvincingly, tried to walk back. She also memorably clashed with Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, responding to a comment about her “fake eyelashes” by attacking Greene’s appearance with a crude “bleach-blonde, bad-built, butch body” insult. Let’s not forget her calling tech billionaire Elon Musk an “idiot” on national television.

This aggressive, often classless style has even earned a label: “dark woke,” according to The New York Times, as reported by the Daily Caller. It’s a confrontational approach that seems to prioritize performative outrage over substantive debate. If Crockett is indeed the “future of the party” as Trump mockingly noted, then the future looks less like a serious political movement and more like a never-ending reality TV squabble.

It’s a sad state of affairs when incivility and inflammatory rhetoric are mistaken for strength. While Crockett and her cheerleaders on the Left might see her antics as bold and empowering, many Americans, particularly those who hold traditional conservative values, see it as a desperate plea for attention and a further debasement of our political discourse. President Trump’s simple, cutting remark about her intelligence sticks precisely because it deflates the self-importance and exposes the hollowness of such performances. This is the kind of politics voters are tired of, and it’s a stark reminder of why a leader who speaks plainly, even bluntly, continues to resonate with so many.

Key Takeaways:

  • Rep. Crockett’s unhinged rhetoric, like her ‘chair’ comment, shows unprofessional, desperate bids for progressive stardom.
  • Trump’s ‘low-IQ’ label for Crockett effectively exposed the absurdity of her as a Democrat leader.
  • Crockett’s ‘dark woke’ insults highlight a Democrat trend: performative outrage over substantive conservative debate.
