President Trump didn’t mince words on national television when he skewered rising Democratic firebrand Jasmine Crockett, calling her a “low IQ person” during his appearance on Meet the Press — a sharp, no-nonsense response that left the media scrambling to explain away the sting. Americans tired of double standards heard exactly what millions already suspected: Trump says what he thinks, and that sometimes includes calling out performative politicians by name.
Crockett predictably pushed back on social media, accusing Trump of obsessing over her and trying to turn the insult into a badge of honor, but the whole exchange only underscored how out of touch the Democratic Party has become with everyday voters. Her reaction on X did little to neutralize the damage; if anything it proved she’s more interested in celebrity posture than serious governing.
Conservative commentator Dave Rubin did what sensible journalists should do and shared the DM clip and on-air reactions so Americans could see the whole thing play out in real time, including CNN’s bemused coverage. Rubin’s decision to amplify the clip showed once again that the so-called mainstream media won’t always give viewers the straight context they deserve, so independent outlets have to step in.
This isn’t some isolated dust-up — Crockett has cultivated a persona built on loud theatrics and headline-seeking interruptions, which helps explain why the Left has been promoting her as a standard-bearer despite a thin record on delivering results. Voters are smart enough to spot a performative culture-war act from a mile away, and Chuck and Nancy’s squad can’t paper over that forever.
What this episode makes crystal clear is that America is done with hollow posturing. The GOP’s strength comes from speaking plainly about problems and holding people accountable, while Democrats keep elevating style over substance and acting shocked when reality bites back.
Patriots should take pride in leaders who call out nonsense and refuse to play by the media’s rules of spin. If President Trump’s bluntness ruffles the left’s feathers, good — the country needs firewalls against feckless officials and performative politicians masquerading as leaders.
Keep watching the exchanges, keep sharing the clips, and keep reminding your neighbors that truth and common sense matter more than the next viral soundbite. The people who actually do the work in this country aren’t impressed by theatrical politicians; they want results, accountability, and leaders who defend everyday Americans without apology.
