In the wake of far-left Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) insulting MAGA voters in horrific fashion, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sounded off on Crockett in a very entertaining way, roasting the woke congresswoman in front of the whole nation during the Thursday, June 19 White House press briefing.
For reference, the angry spat began when Rep. Crockett joined longtime left-leaning journalist Katie Couric on her Next Question podcast and claimed that opposing President Trump is not a partisan matter, as opposing Trump is “common sense” and anyone who was celebrating the Army’s birthday in a DC parade was “sick.”
Leavitt was furious and sounded off during the press briefing, noting that President Trump is hugely popular in a way that Crockett could never dream of, saying, “The last time I checked, Jasmine Crockett couldn’t dream of winning such a majority of the public as President Trump did.”
Continuing, Leavitt slammed the DC establishment, saying, “The America First movement, which President Trump has built, is filled with hardworking patriots. The forgotten men and women, business owners, law enforcement officers, nurses and teachers and Middle America, as we all know from where you all grew up outside of this Beltway.”
She further noted that those sorts of American patriots make up the MAGA movement, and Rep. Crockett has no idea who they are or what they are really like, saying, “That’s who makes up this president’s movement. And Jasmine Crockett should go to a Trump rally sometime, and she can see it for herself.”

During the podcast interview that sparked Leavitt’s fury, Crockett claimed that anyone who isn’t against Trump has a mental problem, saying, “We’ve got a mental health crisis in this country because everyone, no matter how you affiliate yourself, should be against Trump, period. This is not partisan for me.”
Continuing, Crockett said, referring to the parade, “This idea that we don’t care how many people get hurt. We don’t how we prostitute our service members, you know, thinking that you have your own special little army that’s for you. I mean, it is just, it’s sick. It is really sick. And anybody that supports it is also sick.”
She then added that she would rather have George W Bush, saying, “I would give anything to have, sad to say, George Bush. Give me any regular Republican nowadays and I would be happy. But right now we have someone who does not care and he is being enabled by the fact that there are people that follow him and they pump him up.”
And, returning to the matter of the military parade, she said, “My heart breaks for service members, people that signed up to protect democracy and freedom, not only here, but abroad, and were willing to risk their lives. And now, literally, the very thing that they signed up to fight against is now their commander-in-chief. It really breaks my heart. And I don’t know how far he has to go before we can come together and just say, enough is enough.”
