President Donald Trump Calls Jasmine Crockett A “Low I.Q. Person” In Recent Interview
According to Fox News, President Donald Trump sat down with NBC News’ ‘Meet The Press’ for an interview that aired on Sunday, May 4. During his appearance, Trump reportedly discussed his M.A.G.A. successor, naming prospects such as Vice President J.D. Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. However, when the same question was asked for Trump’s thoughts on a successor for the Democratic Party, he reportedly couldn’t say much.
“I can’t name one Democrat. I mean, I look at the Democrats, they’re in total disarray. They have a new person named Crockett. I watched her speak the other day. She’s definitely a low-IQ person. And they said she’s the future of the party. I said, ‘You have to be kidding,'” he stated.
Per the outlet, Trump also mentioned other Democrats amid his response — reportedly naming Bernie Sanders and calling him a “nutjob.”
“I watch Bernie Sanders. He’s a nutjob, but he’s still sharp. He’s the same guy he was. He hasn’t gone down,” he said before adding. “But Biden is really… he’s the worst thing to happen to old people… I don’t know what they’re going to do… It’s really good to have two parties, you know, it’s good. Being challenged is okay. It keeps you sharp. I don’t know what they’re going to do.”

“For you to be in charge of the WHOLE country, you sure do have my name in your mouth a lot. Every time you say my name, you’re reminding the world that you’re terrified of smart, bold Black women telling the truth and holding you accountable. So keep talking,” she wrote.
