Texas Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett had a meltdown this week over President Donald Trump and called him “a piece of sh*t.”
While speaking at an event hosted by progressive political action group MoveOn, Crockett was praised by the crowd for using an expletive about the sitting president of the United States.
“Listen, Donald Trump is a piece of sh*t, OK?” Crockett said — to cheers. “We know that. Yes, yes! He is, he is! But in a functioning democracy, he still would not be able to get away with this.”
“He’s been able to away with this because the House Republicans are complicit,” Crockett said. “He’s been to get away with this because Senate Republicans are complicit. But most importantly, the courts — especially the Supreme Court — is complicit! … They are the highest court in the land and they have no ethics guardrails. Now you go down to the lower courts, and they do. How much sense does that make? Well, we know that they’re taking money. We have the paper trail. And they refuse to put guardrails on themselves. So it’s time for us to do it for them.”
