Radio personality Charlamagne tha God recently lauded Democratic Texas Representative Jasmine Crockett as the leading voice for the Democratic Party.
During an episode of "Hot and Bothered," Charlamagne extolled Crockett's ability to deliver powerful messages, particularly her racially charged criticisms of Republicans. Crockett has gained notoriety for her incendiary remarks, such as referring to Texas Governor Greg Abbott as "Governor Hot Wheels" and drawing parallels between President Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler.
Charlamagne commended Crockett for her boldness in accusing the Trump administration of racism.
"Jasmine Crockett is actually what the Democrats should be leaning into. Because she is a phenomenal messenger," Charlamagne stated. "Some people just have a different anointing on them. You dont know why certain people cause folks to gravitate towards them." He further emphasized her effectiveness in congressional meetings, noting her ability to stay on message.
According to the Daily Caller, Charlamagne recounted a recent instance where Crockett accused Trump and his administration of racism, articulating her points in a compelling manner.
"And just the fact that she was able to articulate that in that three-minute clip that I saw and it was so powerful and so provocative," he remarked. "Im like, yo, you need somebody like Jasmine Crockett. She is the most effective messenger that the Democratic Party has right now."
Charlamagne also criticized the Democratic Party for not fully embracing Crockett, suggesting they should use her as a "Trojan horse." He expressed disappointment in how Democrats treat her, contrasting it with the public criticism she receives from Republicans. "Republicans talk about Jasmine Crockett publicly. Democrats talk about her privately," he observed.
Despite the serious threats President Trump has faced during his 2024 campaign, Crockett has not shied away from her controversial rhetoric, labeling him a "wannabe Hitler" and "Temu Hitler." She has defended her statements, arguing that her words are not incitements to violence. "Me disagreeing with you, me calling you a wannabe Hitler, all those things are like not necessarily saying Go out and hurt somebody,'" Crockett explained during an interview on "The Breakfast Club."
In addition to her current role, Crockett has hinted at future political ambitions. During an appearance on SiriusXM's "The Lurie Daniel Favors Show" in October, she revealed that she is contemplating a Senate run in the 2026 midterms. This potential move could further elevate her profile within the Democratic Party, as she continues to be a polarizing yet influential figure in American politics.
