Jasmine Crockett Literally Shimmies At Mention Of Dems Investigating Trump If Party Takes Back House

Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett could be seen shimmying in her seat Sunday on MSNBC while discussing what would happen if Democrats took back the House majority.

With the midterm elections approaching, Democrats have been working to win back voters in hopes of knocking down the Republican majority in both the House and Senate. While on “Alex Witt Reports,” Crockett was asked whether Democrats would plan to investigate President Donald Trump’s crypto acquisitions if her party were to regain control of the House.

“Well Alex, I’m glad you asked. Listen, so long as we end up taking the House, which I fully anticipate that we will do and we are gonna work hard to obviously help our Senate colleagues as well,” Crockett said. “Then as someone who serves on the Oversight Committee and hopes to lead the Oversight Committee, I can guarantee you that we will do what we are supposed to do as constitutionally sworn members of the House.”

“Which means that we will conduct oversight, that means that we will investigate, we will look at whether or not this president himself has violated the Emoluments Clause as relates to say such things as getting a $400 million plane from the Qataris. We also will make sure that we’re looking into all these business deals that they have going on,” Crockett added.

On May 1, Crockett reportedly began pitching herself to fellow Democratic colleagues to run for the Oversight Committee’s top position, according to Politico. The bid comes after former Democratic Virginia Rep. Gerry Connolly passed away
