Jasmine Crockett Under Fire For Claiming Trump ‘More Dangerous’ Than MS-13
Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett faced swift backlash after claiming that President Donald Trump is more dangerous than Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a reputed MS-13 gang member who was deported to El Salvador last month.
The Texas congresswoman was accused of “living in an alternate reality” after stating that Abrego Garcia is “a lot less criminal” than Trump during an MSNBC interview, where she was questioned about the efforts of Maryland Democratic Sen. Chris Van Hollen to assist the deported illegal immigrant during a highly controversial trip to El Salvador last week.“If Senator Van Hollen can get down there, if the president can get up here and get to the White House, then I don’t understand why we can’t get Abrego up out of there,” Crockett said during an interview on “The Katie Phang Show.”“I mean, we know that they admitted that they were wrong. Now they’re trying to double back and say, well, he’s this terrible person and all this kind of stuff,” she added. “But here’s the reality. As far as I’m concerned, he’s a lot less criminal than the person that’s sitting in the White House, because last time I checked, he doesn’t have any criminal convictions.”
