In a recent podcast appearance, Texas Democrat Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett made some controversial remarks about President Donald Trump's health, comparing it unfavorably to that of President Joe Biden.
Crockett's comments, made on the Grounded podcast with former Sen. Jon Tester and journalist Maritsa Georgiou, were met with laughter and applause from the hosts.
"I dont know. Donald Trump hand look like its about to fall off. But no, in all seriousness though, I do think that we should have a reasonable expectation that our President is not suffering from dementia, Crockett stated.
She further questioned Trump's physical capability to serve out his term, a claim she made with evident delight. "Ive already decided that he is mentally incapable, but clearly enough people are not listening to me. I was just gonna say, as far as his physical health, um, they have not been transparent, she added.
According to Gateway Pundit, Crockett's comments were made in a tone of pure glee as she compared Trump's supposed ailments to Biden's, seemingly ignoring the irony of her party's long-standing concealment of Biden's occasional stumbles, freezes, and memory lapses.
Ive literally sat in depositions and transcribed interviews as it relates to them going after and harassing staffers on all levels about whether or not he was competent to use the auto-pen and what did they know about his health, Crockett said.
So we are currently investigating not the Presidents health, the former Presidents health while the current President is visibly struggling more physically than the previous President. That is for sure.
In recent weeks, liberals have been speculating about Trump's health on social media due to some visible bruising on his hand. A rumor even circulated that the President had passed away, leading to the phrase Trump is dead trending on social media.
Trump responded to these rumors, stating, I did numerous news conferences all successful. They went very well like this is going very well; and then I didnt do any for two days and they said, There must be something wrong with him.
Biden wouldnt do them for months, you wouldnt see him, and nobody ever said there was ever anything wrong with him, and we know he wasnt in the greatest of shape.
In a separate interview with California Governor Gavin Newsom, Crockett made the claim that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) should act as a fancy Uber driver for immigrants. She argued that ICE had been used as Trump's "personal army" and should not be investigating or detaining illegal aliens.
"ICE for the most part is nothing but a ride," the congresswoman claimed. "Thats all they were supposed to do for the most part, right? Its like, you know what? This person is undocumented or this person re-enters the country illegally, all the things, and then they have an ICE hold, and then ICE gets them so that they can then send them out. Thats all ICE is supposed to do, look at them as a fancy Uber driver for immigrants."
Crockett also criticized the agency's recent actions, stating, "Now theyre running into places, doing raids, and theyre falling all over each other, injuring each other. Like we are a joke, but it is a bad nightmare of a joke. And so I dont think that this president has any limits that he wont go to."
In a further display of her controversial views, Crockett claimed that President Donald Trump and his supporters are the most "unpatriotic" Americans and that Democrats need to reclaim the use of the flag.
"I am telling you right now that the most unpatriotic people that we have in this country are MAGA and this President," she stated. "We are the real patriots. And it is time for us to take our flag back and show people what America is about."
While Crockett's comments have stirred up controversy, they also reflect a broader debate about the health and capabilities of our political leaders, as well as the role and actions of immigration enforcement agencies. As the discourse continues, it remains to be seen how these issues will be addressed in the political landscape.
