Jasmine Crockett Justifies Calling Trump ‘Wannabe Hitler’ After Charlie Kirk Assassination

Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett on “The Breakfast Club” Friday justified calling President Donald Trump a “wannabe Hitler” following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.

Crockett called Trump, who has faced two assassination attempts, a “wannabe Hitler” during a July interview on MSNBC. During a discussion about Kirk’s assassination on “The Breakfast Club,” she argued that Trump was responsible for violent rhetoric while absolving herself.

“e’ve got to talk about like what it means when you’re running for president or you’re running for one of these higher offices and you go out there and you talk about beating people up,” Crockett said. “You go out there and you say things like, ‘I could shoot somebody in the middle of the street in New York and I could still win.’”

“That is next level. Me disagreeing with you, me calling you a wannabe Hitler, all those things are like not necessarily saying ‘Go out and hurt somebody.’ But when you’re literally telling people at rallies, ‘Yeah, beat him up’ and that kind of stuff, like you are promoting like a culture of violence,” she added. “So, we need to talk about like what it looks like when you don’t promote a culture of violence.”
