House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-NY, rebuked President Donald Trump on Sunday and said he should keep his "reckless mouth shut" after the president called Democrats the "greatest enemy" in America.
"Now with the death of Iran, the greatest enemy America has is the Radical Left, Highly Incompetent, Democratic Party! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT," the president wrote on Truth Social.
CNN's Dana Bash asked Jeffries to react to the statement during Sunday's "State of the Union."
"Donald Trump should keep his reckless mouth shut before he gets somebody killed," Jeffries said.
Jeffries also spoke to Bash about the war in Iran, which he described as a "reckless war of choice."
"They clearly didn't anticipate some of the things that have happened, including the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. What you're seeing right now are gas prices are through the roof, and that's adding to an environment in America right now where life has already become too expensive for the American people because of failed policies by Donald Trump," he said.
Jeffries did not say whether he would support any more funding for the Pentagon or whether he would urge Democrats to vote "no."
"Well, we'll have that leadership conversation when we actually have a piece of legislation that is in front of us. But I can tell you, uh, there is strong opposition right now to the notion that this war of choice — that is reckless, that's costing the American people now more than $30 billion — should continue. We need to move, which we plan on doing in short order, a War Powers Resolution so we can bring this situation to a close," he said.

Coming from Jeffries that is hilarious
Hakeem you and your ilk have already gotten many killed, the latest example being Mr. Kirk and you have gotten President Trump shot at with your Hitler / fascist rhetoric.
No, the time is past, you forced this crossing of the Rubicon, you are indeed an enemy of America and of good in general.
Repent and seek our Lord before you are condemned.
Grow up, Hackeem. Anyone with half a brain knows you’re chronically full of shit.
You’ll never see a picture of him in the dictionary next to the word ‘sincere’.
The gangsta talk doesn’t fit him.
Exactly.
Pronto.

"Ha. A lot you know.....Hakeem can say 'keep your reckless mouth shut' in Spanish."
Dems are truly TRAITORS. Line them up against a wall. Pay an Illegal. They are mercenaries and will kill anyone for money. And our government will pay for Americans to be “unalived”. S/O
Hakeeeeem - Thank you for your attention to this matter.
**** Hackee with the Muslim name, is nephew of the infamous NY prof Léonard Jeffries ......... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Jeffries
Like Charlie Kirk? What did leftists say about him? They call us every name in the book, Nazis, white supremacists, domestic terrorists... do they worry that there's a link between that rhetoric and all the "random" black on white crime we see every day in this country? What's that? No?
Good answer!
I like the way you think. I’m gonna be watching you.

Hakeem has an uncle who is a college professor and wada bigwig in the Pan-African movement of the 60’s and 70’s. Lotsa Black kids got “ethnic” names back then showing their pride in their culture. Although in reality “Hakim” is an Arab name and the Arabs were famous as African slavers. So it’s kinda like an Irish family giving their kid the first name of “Cromwell”.

Hahahaha! Let’s you & me hide in the bushes and watch and see if President Trump obeys Hock-keem. ROFLMAO!
Hakeem == “Temu Obama”. LOVE IT! Dead on.
Normally I’d say you owe me a key board, but mine is liquid proof! I laughed so hard!
