Jasmine Crockett dared anyone to find examples of Democrats championing violence — and the GOP delivered

The Republican compilation also included some of Crockett’s own best hits.
One of the excerpts in the compilation was taken from Crockett’s March interview with KXAS-TV’s Phil Prazan where she said that in order to win an election in Texas, “You punch. I think you punch. I think you’re OK with — you OK with punching.”
In the same interview, Crockett referenced former Rep. Colin Allred’s electoral defeat last year by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and suggested the Democrat should have been more combative with his Republican opponent, saying, “I mean, like, this dude [Cruz] has to be knocked over the head, like, hard, right. Like, there is no niceties with him — like, at all. Like, you go clean off on him.”
Crockett — who has rooted for foreign nations engaged in trade disputes with the U.S.; told radicals that Elon Musk must be “taken down” amid firebombs; characterized Republican voters as stupid; issued racist remarks; mocked the handicapped; and dubbed the commander in chief “an enemy to the United States” — had another instance of violent rhetoric featured in the GOP’s compilation.
The second excerpt, taken from a press conference in August, shows Crockett say, “I am here to tell you: Not only are we gonna punch back, but we about to beat you down.”
NOTUS reported this week that the National Republican Senatorial Committee “has actively worked behind the scenes to encourage Rep. Jasmine Crockett to jump into the Senate Democratic primary in Texas, believing she will be the easiest opponent to beat.”
