Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) hit back at President Donald Trump after he called her “low-IQ,” arguing the president uses the insult to target people of color. (See her response in the video above.)
The congresswoman said Tuesday during a CNN interview that she doesn’t “care how many Black MAGA out there” are wearing Trump-supporting hats, the president “has a problem with people of color.”
Crockett was responding after Trump mocked the idea that the Texas Democrat, whose star has risen quickly since she was first elected to Congress in 2022, is one of the leaders of her party.
“You have this woman, Crockett. Very low-IQ person,” Trump said during a CNBC interview on Tuesday. “Somebody said the other day she’s one of the leaders of the party. I said, ‘You’ve got to be kidding.’”
He also, bizarrely, questioned whether she is related to 19th-century frontiersman Davy Crockett.
