Jasmine Crockett Backtracks On ‘Picking Cotton’ Comments |
Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett is running for Senate. Her mouth is her own biggest obstacle.
In April, Crockett claimed she “had to go around the country and educate people about what immigrants do for this country … The fact is, ain’t none of y’all trying to go and farm right now.”
“Okay, so I’m lyin’?” Crockett asked a nervously laughing crowd. “You’re not. You’re not. We’re done picking cotton. We are. You can’t pay us enough to find a plantation.”
The implication being: Democrats are importing a slave class of Mexicans to pick their crops. And this is a good thing.
