January 1, Rep. Crockett Accuses Rep. Greene of Racist Trope for MAGA Crowd Approval
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) made headlines this Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union.” She accused Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) of using a racist trope to impress the “MAGA crowd.”
Rep. Jasmine Crockett at CNN: "The problem with MAGA is that MAGA does not respect rules nor do they respect the law, that is exactly why they're all running up to Trump's trial … the 'party of law and order' is bun at this point in time." pic.twitter.com/p5fzIR9bjF

Host Jake Tapper asked Crockett about her perspective on the situation. He inquired, “Do you think her going after your eyelashes that in itself is racist?”
Crockett replied, “I think her specifically doing it to me, yes, that was the intent.” She mentioned that women wear makeup and various accessories to beautify themselves.
She went on to say, “MAGA has historically been on social media doing the things where they’re saying, ‘Oh, she’s black with lashes and nails and hair, and so she’s ghetto.'” Crockett believes this was Greene’s attempt to amplify this rhetoric for the MAGA crowd.
Crockett added, “And so, yeah, I absolutely think that she only did it to be racist towards me.”
Tapper asked for clarification, “Because it was towards you or because it was eyelashes, so in that sense, it’s kind of like, in your view, buying into a racist trope?”
Crockett explained, “It is buying into a racist trope, but the reality is that women of all colors wear lashes.”
This accusation comes after Greene’s controversial remarks at the House Oversight Hearing Committee earlier this week.

Crockett sounds like a whiner to me. What Greene allegedly said sounds really childish and inappropriate, but hardly racist to my way of thinking. I never listen to all this nonsense to start with, but everyone needs to act like a responsible adult. AOC, Crockett and the rest of the crew need to pack it up and go home. Maybe Greene too.

So she shopped her eyelashes are raaaaacist story around and it seems the only foolish/desperate for viewers channels to care was CNN. Not surprised at all.

Crockett is an extreme bigot with an agenda. Every time the mouth of this left wing loon opens, lies come out. This bigot is unfit for any public office

Ignorance, racial hatred, still slave to Democrats 200 years later, low IQ, and ethically depraved are the hallmarks of black female polecats across the board! She’s just like all the rest! Useless to society for any reasonable purpose! She can stuff her pathetic excuses about women’s makeup as grounds for an accusation of racist trope! Most of the male Leftists, white and black wear women’s makeup! No calls for racist trope there by her are there?
