Rep. Jasmine Crockett Defends ‘Fascist’ Rhetoric on CNN Following Charlie Kirk Assassination

This week, Representative Jasmine Crockett went on CNN to talk about the criticism Democrats are getting. People are asking if calling Republicans “fascists” and “Hitler” might lead to violence. Her answer? “They’re absolutely wrong.” She said this right after conservative activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated.

Here’s where it gets really bad. CNN host Kasie Hunt just sat there. She let Crockett talk for almost two whole minutes without asking a single tough question. Critics said Hunt let her “spew bile” on national TV.

And what did Crockett say during those two minutes? Get this—she actually blamed Republicans for “gun culture.” She said, “The average person on the left probably couldn’t make a shot from 200 yards.” Why? Because according to her, liberals “haven’t been playing with assault rifles since they were a little kid. It seems like violence is okay if it is only because the man that is currently serving in the White House asked for it…But then, when it ends up happening and it comes back on the other side, they claim that it’s because of the Democrats and them using words like fascist.”

Let that sink in. A conservative was just killed. The police found bullet casings with anti-fascist messages on them. And Crockett’s response? She goes on TV to defend calling people fascists. She says it’s just “warning against authoritarianism.” Really?

This isn’t a one-time thing with Crockett. Just days after Kirk died, she went on a radio show. She defended calling President Trump “wannabe Hitler.” I’m not making this up. She’s also called him “Temu Hitler” and said he’s an “enemy to the United States.”

Think about this for a second. We’re not talking about mean tweets here. We’re talking about real violence. Those anti-fascist messages on the bullet casings? They show what happens when you call half the country enemies of democracy. Some crazy person might actually believe you. And then what? We all saw what happened to Charlie Kirk. But instead of learning from this tragedy, some Democrats are doubling down. They’re defending the exact words that might have caused it

Yeah Republicans aren't fascists or Hitler.

In the Algarve I'd happily have a few drinks with a nice American tourist family wearing MAGA caps.

@BritishFailedAesthetic You laughed with it... that's okay... but just know, that I'm being really serious when I said what I said.
@Kwek00 It's funny. Why would I have drinks with someone wearing a swastika?

@BritishFailedAesthetic I don't know, you tell me... but you are talking about a post hoc analysis. If you were in 1932, you would have a lot less problems with it. And these people have just as much chance of being a normal family that you can have a drink and good conversaton with. It's not that NAZI members were monsters, or that they were vissibily "evil". Even "evil" in a non vissible way, would have been a harsh label, even today. Most of these people were just human beings, but they pushed their bigotry to a point where it's okay to remove people from society. As long as they aren't bigoted towards you, you would never notice.

Comming back to the original post, adding this:

... because they are not "fascists" or "hitler"... just gives me the feeling that there is a shallow understanding. As if it would be impossible for a british white guy, OR even a jew that doesn't have visible signs of their faith and community, to have a good experience around the table with some NAZI's.

It's like that guy on here, with the John Wayne profile picture. Who on one hand is defending that it's okay to rip families apart and stick young children in a cage while waiting for their deportation. Also defends the opression of gay people and rages about how evil transsexuals are. But also says that he's a "good person" and "descent folk" because he holds the door open for people and helps old ladies over the street.
Another one who needs to be shown the door to a different line of work.

This fledgling communist wannabe likes to bark orders (ahem, work) from her house remotely from the laptop spending as little time at the office as possible. I see many interview doors closing shut in her future after being fired or forced to quit.

It's a mental issue. I've seen this purposeless outburst behavior at work before. Most of the time they're on large doses of Paxil or Zoloft anti-depressants. May the lice of a thousand water buffaloes 🐃 infest her hairdo.

There should be IQ requirements for voting and running for office!
