GOP accepts Crockett’s video challenge — times 20

U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett got more than she bargained for after laying down a challenge about Democrats.

Republicans gladly obliged after the Texas Senate candidate dared anyone to find a video clip of her fellow Democrats “invoking violence,” launching a blistering video response with nearly two dozen examples.

In an appearance on The Breakfast Club podcast, Crockett insisted she had never used rhetoric that could invoke violence, despite countless examples of her doing just that.

“Don’t get mad that I speak the truth and I speak facts, but I literally have never said anything to invoke violence. And I challenge somebody to go and find a clip of a Democrat invoking violence,” she said.

“Challenge accepted,” the GOP responded, unrolling a supercut of 20 examples of Democrats doing just that.

The video montage included unmistakable comments from the likes of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), and Gov. Gavin Newsom, who was seen vowing, “We’re fighting fire with fire, and we’re gonna punch these sons of b*tches in the mouth.”

The two-minute clip also featured multiple examples of Crockett vowing to “punch back.”

“Not only are we gonna punch back, but we about to beat you down,” Crockett told one Texas crowd this year, and she also made headlines for calling for Elon Musk to be “taken down.”

Earlier this year, the congresswoman came under fire after implying that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) “has to be knocked over the head, like hard.”

Social media users cheered the GOP response to Crockett’s “challenge,” with many remarking that there were plenty more examples to be found of Democrats calling for violence.
