Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) believes Democrats have to “punch” to win elections in Texas, stating that Republican politicians such as Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) need to be “knocked over the head, like, hard.”
Crockett made the remark during an interview with NBC 5’s Phil Prazan and Dallas Morning News’s Gromer Jeffers. She was asked, “How do you win elections in Texas as a Democrat? What do you do? Especially statewide.”
“I think that you punch,” Crockett said, answering the question with colorful and violent imagery. “I think you punch. I think you’re ok with — you’re ok with punching.”
“You know, I think, and I love Colin, and I think towards the end, he started to punch a little harder,” she said, continuing to use this language despite years of the left accusing the right of using violent and divisive rhetoric.
Then she upped the ante.
“But, like, it’s Ted Cruz. I mean, like, This dude has to be knocked over the head, like, hard, right?” she said. “Like, there is no niceties with him, like, at all. Like, you go clean off on him, right?”

It sounds like she’s just asking for trouble.
Ghetto trash
This little idiot needs to be sued. She’s note covered by the debate clause when she’s appearing on the news.
wondering if she’ll come to Florida and try the “punch” in a small town. can only hope.
Yep. The first time she is actually punched back at, she is going to play the race card AND the sex card at the same time.
Count on it.
The mental midget speaks again.
Nah, she’ll break a nail.
Yes, yes, yes. Get it started Jasmine. We Texans are too afraid to fight back.
I don’t know what’s worse: Her careless, childish and violent rhetoric or the equally stupid people in her district cheering her on.
Also- someone should investigate how Ms. Crockett became so wealthy vs. her salary.
As long as Crockett becomes one of the “main faces” of the democrat party.
“I’m Happy.”
“More Crockett.”
Hope someone is keeping a close eye on her finances..
Like, she needs like a speech coach, like you know what I mean?
Idiot...
Careful Jasmine. People will punch back. At times much harder than you might think. Also she might consider the old street adage. “When you go to hit any person, consider that it just might be the last conscious act of your life.”
Punch up or punch down?
Democrats LOVE violence.
It’s all they use.
Fake ghetto. Wealthy daughter of a rich pastor, attended exclusive private academy. She probably sounds more like Mrs. Thurston Howell
Please, Jasmine, take a swing at me.
Dear Jasmine;
Be careful in telling your followers to “punch” people. I have a concealed carry license. If I feel that my life is threatened or that of someone I care for, I will use whatever legal means are available to protect myself. There could be blood on your hands if your words are followed. Probably not by me, but by others.
You threaten to punch me and I’ll consider it a call to mutual combat and punch first.
