Radical far-left Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas released what many are calling an “embarrassing” rap video featuring herself and others ahead of President Donald Trump’s speech to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.
“From the eviction of Georgia Democratic Rep. Al Green for belligerence early in [Trump’s] address to a joint session of Congress to the underwhelming response delivered by Michigan Democratic Sen. Elissa Slotkin, the party was an embarrassment to politics on the kind of night when the American public was paying attention,” an op-ed at the Western Journal noted.
“But Texas Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett, a bigoted imbecile by even permissive progressive standards, still managed to stand out,” the op-ed added.
In a social media post published ahead of Trump’s address, as reported by rap-centric website AllHipHop, the former criminal defense lawyer channeled rap star Kendrick Lamar, sharing a video of herself lip-syncing to his song “Not Like Us.”

“Well…the State of the DisUnion will begin shortly. I’m gonna be in attendance. DO NOT WATCH!” Crockett wrote on the post.
The post and the video was savaged by X platform users.
Super Mayor Tiffany Henyard thought she was all that, and bag of chips, too. Now she is homeless and voted out of office. Keep jivin’. https://t.co/fY67PfezIW

Despite the antics of Crockett and many in her party, Trump’s speech was an overwhelming success, according to surveys.
A CBS News/YouGov survey, conducted immediately after Trump’s joint address to Congress, polled a nationally representative sample of speech watchers—and the results are likely to delight the poll-conscious president.
The poll shows an overwhelming 76 percent of Americans viewing the speech approved of Trump’s remarks, with only 23 percent — less than a quarter — disapproving.
Sixty-eight percent of viewers described Trump’s speech as “hopeful,” with a majority also describing it as “presidential,” “inspiring,” “unifying,” and “entertaining.”
A clear majority of Americans who watched President Trump’s address felt he focused on issues that mattered to them, according to the CBS News/YouGov survey.
More than two-thirds of viewers said Trump has a clear plan to tackle inflation, which began under President Joe Biden. Additionally, over three-quarters of respondents supported Trump’s proposals on reducing government waste, immigration, and border security. Despite negative press coverage leading up to the speech, nearly one-quarter of viewers approved of Trump’s approach to handling Ukraine and Russia, Breitbart News reported, citing the polling results.
Finally, more than three-quarters of viewers approved of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) ordering the Sergeant at Arms to remove Rep. Al Green (D-TX) from the chamber after he disrupted President Trump’s speech despite multiple warnings.
A post-speech CNN poll found similar results.
