White House STRIKES BACK After Jasmine Crockett Calls Trump Supporters “Mentally Ill” – Leavitt Torches the Fiery Dem in Explosive Clash

🔥 Tempers exploded in Washington this week as the White House launched a fiery response to Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX), after the outspoken Democrat unleashed a searing attack on Donald Trump’s supporters, labeling them “sick” and suffering from a mental health crisis.

During a high-profile interview with journalist Katie Couric, Crockett stunned viewers with a comment that triggered an immediate political earthquake:

“We’ve got a mental health crisis in this country because everyone, no matter how you affiliate yourself, should be against Trump. This is not partisan for me,” Crockett declared.

“It is really sick, and anybody that supports it is also sick.”

Those remarks, delivered with Crockett’s signature firebrand confidence, sparked an immediate rebuke from White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who did not hold back in a scathing press briefing that has since gone viral.

💥 Leavitt’s Retaliation: “She Couldn’t Dream of Winning 80 Million Votes”

Standing at the White House podium, Leavitt torched Crockett’s rhetoric as “derogatory,” “un-American,” and a direct insult to tens of millions of working-class voters.

“It’s incredibly derogatory to accuse nearly 80 million Americans of mental illness,” Leavitt said, her voice sharp with indignation.

“The last time I checked, Jasmine Crockett couldn’t dream of winning such a majority of the public as President Trump did.”

Leavitt wasn’t done.

She painted Trump’s MAGA movement as made up of “hardworking patriots, forgotten men and women, business owners, law enforcement officers, nurses and teachers,” reminding reporters that **Crockett’s viral insult wasn’t just aimed at Trump—**it was aimed at the very backbone of Middle America.

“That’s who makes up this president’s movement,” she continued. “And if Congresswoman Crockett is so bold, maybe she should show up to a Trump rally and tell them to their faces.”

🔥 Crockett: “I Said What I Said”

In true Crockett fashion, the congresswoman refused to walk back her remarks.

Instead, she doubled down on social media with a fiery post that read, “I said what I said. If standing up to fascism makes me unpopular with cult followers, so be it.”

Crockett, who was re-elected in 2024 with nearly 85% of the vote, is no stranger to controversy—or media attention. Since Trump’s second term began, she’s emerged as one of the most visible antagonists of both the former president and Texas Governor Greg Abbott, gaining a growing following on the left.

🤯 “Republicans Tell Me They Like Me” – Crockett Stuns Interviewer

In another viral moment from an interview with Dallas journalist Jason Whitely, Crockett claimed that even Republicans have approached her to express admiration.

“You’d be surprised,” she said, when pressed. “Republicans have walked up to me and told me how much they like me.”

The interviewer was stunned:

“No, you haven’t! Are you serious?”

But Crockett insisted. That same day, CNN’s Scott Jennings called her one of the “true leaders” of the Democratic Party—a title once reserved for progressives like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who opted out of this year’s caucus leadership race.

⚔️ The Battle for 2028: Is Crockett Eyeing the White House?

With polling suggesting Crockett has growing name recognition, Whitely asked her the question on everyone’s mind: Is a presidential run in the cards?

“I want to do what I can to make sure we win. I’m a team player,” she said, without giving a clear yes or no. “But yes—I want us to win the presidency in 2028.”

While she demurred, insiders say her rising profile, bold statements, and refusal to back down from controversy have cemented her status as a top contender for future national leadership roles within the Democratic Party.

👀 Trump’s Response: “A Very Low-IQ Person”

Former President Donald Trump, never one to shy away from insults, has fired back repeatedly at Crockett, calling her “a very low-IQ person” and “a lowlife.”

At a National Republican Congressional Committee dinner, Trump mocked the idea of Crockett ever leading her party—only to be contradicted days later by political analysts who acknowledged her growing grassroots influence.

“Crockett, AOC—those are the real leaders of your party,” Jennings told a CNN panel. “They set the tone.”

📈 What’s Next: A Leadership Battle and a Divided Nation

Crockett is currently in the running to chair the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, a powerful post once held by Rep. Gerry Connolly. She faces strong opponents—Stephen Lynch, Kweisi Mfume, and Robert Garcia—but her national name ID and unapologetic style make her a formidable contender.

The June 24 caucus vote will not only determine her future in congressional leadership but will also serve as a litmus test for how far the Democratic Party is willing to embrace her brand of in-your-face activism.

🇺🇸 Final Thoughts: Culture War or Political Suicide?

Jasmine Crockett’s latest remarks have once again thrown gasoline on the culture war dividing American politics. Her critics say she’s gone too far—alienating voters and disrespecting millions. Her supporters say she’s finally telling the truth without filters, spin, or apology.

Whether her boldness translates to broader national appeal—or becomes a cautionary tale—remains to be seen.

But one thing is certain: Jasmine Crockett isn’t backing down, and the political world is watching.
