Jasmine Crockett Draws Support After Republicans Bash 'Hot Wheels' Comment About Greg Abbott: 'Thought Comedy Was Legal Again?'
Latin Times via MSN ^ | 3/25/25 | Morgan Music

Posted on 03/25/2025 3:13:36 PM PDT by DallasBiff

Outspoken Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) faces criticism from Republicans after referring to Governor Greg Abbott as "Governor Hot Wheels" in a recent public statement.

Speaking at a fundraising dinner for LGBTQ advocacy group, Human Rights Campaign, Crockett took a jab at her state's Republican governor, who has used a wheelchair since a 1984 accident. The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) was swift to condemn Crockett's remarks as an attack on Abbott's disability, taking to X to share the clip and indict the Democratic Party.

However, commenters questioned the outrage, pointing out the GOP's history of name-calling and campaigns against language-policing. In the post, NRCC even uses a nickname of their own, calling the congressman "Crazy Crockett."

"I thought comedy was legal again?" one user wrote, referencing Elon Musk's call to "legalize comedy" at the recent CPAC convention.

Yeah, well maybe Greg Abbott should take to the mic and comment on Crockett’s phony eyelashes and stupid looking wigs and see how she likes that?

Wow, citing some random person's comment.

Latin Times sounds like a real quality publication.

Not.

I remember the outrage by the left when they accused Rush Limbaugh of making fun of Michael J. Fox. We didn’t hear anything about “comedy being legal” back then, did we?

It’s good that Jasmine is getting blow back for her insensitive comment. Republicans have been roasted for their faux pas for ages.

I don’t care what she calls Abbott as long as she stops calling for people to get knocked off.

The liberal have no sense of humor or discernment. Is it comedy to joke about wheel chairs?

Fake eyelashes, fake nails, fake hair and fake accent.

She gets “support” from a LGBTQ advocacy group after ridiculing a handicapped person. This sick creeps are the worst people in the country. Perfect fellow travelers for the rats.

But she’s not even supporting or defending her statement as “comedy”, saying it had nothing to do with his “condition”. It’s really not been a good day for her.

Crockett was doing a live audition for a seat on The View after her political career implodes.
