Far-left Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett baselessly said with a straight face Sunday that President Donald Trump is “an enemy to the United States.”
Crockett echoed the Democrats’ failed talking points that Trump is a want-to-be dictator who is “occupying the White House” and “aligning” himself with Russian President Vladimir Putin during her MSNBC appearance. She claimed the U.S. is in a “national security crisis” following the president’s verbal blowout with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a Friday meeting in the Oval Office.
“There’s not a middle ground with this president. [Trump] has no intentions of doing right by, number one, the United States … We are in a national security crisis. We have been in a national security crisis ever since, honestly, before he even ran,” Crockett said. “We know that he had our national secrets stored in Mar-a-Lago, people felt like that wasn’t really a big deal, they wanted to compare it to what’s going on with [former President] Joe Biden. We know he was showing this to people that maybe weren’t supposed to see our national security secrets … And so, right now, and not to mention right now, his [Department of Justice] has decided not to prosecute cases that engage in any type of foreign nefariousness when it comes to getting money.”
“So, unfortunately, we have somebody who is occupying the White House and as far as I’m concerned, he is an enemy to the United States. He swore an oath just like the rest of us,” the congresswoman continued. “But right now, you are literally putting us at risk all because of what? Because you want to convince your followers that you should be a dictator, too, that you should never leave the White House? Because you don’t believe that elections should take place? I don’t really understand what is going on, and I really don’t know what it’s gonna take for people to wake up.”
WATCH:
While she made these accusations against the president, Crockett said during a Feb. 21 podcast appearance that she is “rooting” for Canada and Mexico over the U.S. because Trump threatened to impose tariffs in order to force them to take tougher stances on illegal immigration.
Trump ordered Zelenskyy to leave the White House after the Ukrainian president accused the U.S. of not truly “engaging in diplomacy” during their Oval Office meeting, causing a scheduled signing of a minerals deal and a joint press conference to be canceled. The president and Vice President J.D. Vance told Zelenskyy that he showed disrespect to U.S. leaders and the American people.
The president stated during the meeting that he is not aligned with either Putin or Zelenskyy but is interested in bringing an end to the Russia-Ukraine war in order to benefit the U.S. He announced in mid-February that negotiations to end the Russia-Ukraine war were underway following a call with Putin.
“I’m not aligned with Putin, I’m not aligned with anybody, I’m aligned with the United States of America and for the good of the world. I’m aligned with the world, and I want to get this thing over with,” Trump said.
Trump said in a post to Truth Social that Zelenskyy “is not ready for peace” because he is using the U.S. to his own “advantage” in its negotiations with Russia. After being kicked out of the White House, Zelenskyy expressed gratitude to Trump and the American people in a Friday statement after Vance called him out over not thanking the administration for helping him negotiate an end to the war.
Crockett referenced special counsel Jack Smith’s former case, which alleged that Trump illegally stored classified documents at his home in Mar-a-Lago, which the president vehemently denied. Judge Aileen Cannon, who oversaw the case and was a Trump appointee, dismissed the indictment in July with the argument that the appointment of a special counsel violated the U.S. Constitution.
Democrats repeatedly warned during the 2024 election cycle that Trump is a “fascist” who planned on seizing power if he ever won reelection. American voters seemingly did not buy into these talking points, given that Trump won all seven swing states and the popular vote against former Vice President Kamala Harris.
The party has sided with Zelenskyy over Trump and Vance following the Oval Office incident. Democratic California Senator Adam Schiff accused Trump of being a “coward” and labeled Zelenskyy a “hero,” while former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that Trump has stood up against the U.S.’ “longstanding support of democracy around the world.”
