White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt absolutely wrecked Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) over her attack on supporters of President Donald Trump as "mentally ill.”
During the White House Press Briefing on Thursday, a reporter asked Leavitt about Crockett's comments suggesting that if you support the president, you have mental issues, and defended former President Joe Biden's cognitive decline.
"I think it's incredibly derogatory to accuse nearly 80 million Americans of mental illness," the White House press secretary replied. "The last time I checked, Jasmine Crockett couldn't dream of winning such a majority of the public as President Trump did."
🚨@PressSec WRECKS @JasmineForUS for calling Trump supporters "mentally ill":

"And the America First movement, which President Trump has built, is filled with hardworking patriots," she added. "The forgotten men and women, business owners, law enforcement officers, nurses, teachers, and middle America… that's who make up this president's movement."
"Jasmine Crockett should go to a Trump rally sometime, and she can see it for herself," Leavitt concluded.
The White House press secretary's take-downs of Democrats and liberal media have been lethal. There are numerous examples of Leavitt taking apart reporters on issues like the anti-ICE riots and the cover-up of Biden's cognitive decline.
During an interview with Katie Couric, Crockett claimed she never saw anything that would make her "wonder" about Biden's mental decline, RedState reported.
Rusty Weiss wrote:
Couric noted that even when other Democrats were cognizant that the gig was up on Biden's inability to lead the country, the Texas lawmaker stood firmly behind him. She wondered if Crockett had any regrets about doing so.
"Not a single one," she replied. "I still stand by the decision to stand with President Joe Biden and then ultimately standing with Vice President Kamala Harris."
Crockett claims she couldn't identify mental decline because she didn't have close access to Biden. Of course, if you had even ancillary access to a television set or social media, it was pretty easy to spot. She's just willfully ignorant.
"I never saw anything in Joe Biden that made me wonder whatsoever," she insisted.
The congresswoman also insisted Biden's "mental acuity" was "supreme" to that of President Trump's before she claimed that Kamala Harris was "light years ahead of Donald Trump as it relates to qualifications, as it relates to her overall resume." Yes, really.
But the real whopper was when the Texas lawmaker said that Trump's mass repatriation efforts and a parade he held celebrating the Army were "sick" and "anybody that supports it is also sick," Weiss noted.
🚨NEW: Jasmine Crockett calls Trump supporters *MENTALLY ILL* — then immediately calls for bipartisanship🚨

"We've got a mental health crisis in this country because everyone — no matter how you affiliate yourself — should be against Trump," Crockett said. "Period. This is not partisan for me. Like, I would give anything to have — sad to say — George Bush. Like, give me any regular Republican nowadays, and I would be happy."
"I don't know how far he [Trump] has to go before we can come together and just say, 'Enough is enough.' Like, this should not be partisanship," she added.
The Democrat Party has never been less popular as voters reject their globalist agenda.
