Jasmine Crockett says immigrants can't leave because "we done picking cotton"

Jasmine Crockett does not want illegal immigrants to be deported from this country.

And do you know why?

Watch:

Jasmine Crockett: “So I had to go around the country and educate people about what immigrants do for this country… The fact is ain't none of y'all trying to go and farm right now... We done picking cotton.”

Oof.

She made this comment at a Baptist church in Connecticut.

Essentially what she means is we must keep illegals in this country so they can work slave wages and pick cotton for us. Jasmine, we knew you were an uppity private school girl pretending to be hood, but just because you're from the suburbs doesn't mean you get to buy illegals at slave wages.

Also, please stop the hood act. It gets more cringe everytime I see it.

Crockett is one of these “new idea” race baiters. She is throwing words at the board to gather the few that stick. She will use them to keep her “people” riled.

Thank God so many Americans have seen or are seeing the light.

“There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”

― African-American educator, author, orator, and advisor (1856-1915)

Last time I saw Darkies picking cotton by hand was on a bus trip through Central Arkansas in 1968. All other places use mechanical pickers.
On a trip through Arkansas last October I noticed cotton was being baled just like round hay bails covered with plastic wrap.

Ignorant Jasmine Crockett unaware that blacks owned slaves too so much for her 50 thousand a year education costs.

I’m as white as white can be....one of my early memories is staying home from school sick, and since there was no one to watch me I went to work with my grandparents. Picking cotton. I rode around on their sacks as they walked down the aisles picking cotton.

Yes America still grows cotton. You would be amazed at its products. From stealth fighters that evade radar detection, to the glass protector layer screen on your cell phone, all made from cotton seed fibers. (The fuzzy lint surrounding the seed). It’s really a miracle crop. I don’t think we use the boll fibers though. I think that gets exported.

I believe she’s referring to ILLEGAL ALIENS aka immigrants..NOT legal immigrants who are free to do whatever it is they do provided it’s not illegal..

She is actually acting. She thinks this is how blacks beneath her are supposed to be.

She is making fun of her own race because cotton is mechanically picked in today world America.

Short time in Congress on a paycheck below 200k and she already owns 3 homes.

The only cotton she ever picked was out of her belly button.

She doesn’t know most ag harvesting is done mechanically, including cotton and peanuts. Tobacco harvesting requires manual labor.

Cotton harvesters in the 60’s were expensive and didn’t separate the cotton seeds or bale the cotton. They just picked the bolls and threw them in a huge cage. Now they can do both, separate the seeds (for oil and animal feed) and bale the cotton ready for shipping, and do up to eight rows at a time...........

Whatever you do, don’t believe Miss My Little Pony Crockette when she says she used to be a slave who picked cotton.

I have more in common with Martin Luther King than Crockett does, MLK and I both worked in the tobacco fields in Simsbury Connecticut.

Cotton was one of the crops my mother’s family picked when they followed the crops and before they moved up to sharecroppers.
