Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett was ripped by conservatives on social media this week after claiming President Donald Trump is “occupying the White House” and is an “enemy to the United States.”
“Unfortunately, we have someone that is occupying the White House, and as far as I’m concerned, he is an enemy to the United States,” Crockett said on MSNBC on Sunday. “I don’t know what it’s going to take to get people to wake up.”
The Texas congresswoman also suggested that Trump is a “dictator” in her cable news appearance.
Conservatives on social media quickly pushed back against Crockett.

Crockett has become one of the most prominent faces of the Democratic Party, opposing Trump’s agenda and the DOGE efforts of Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
Crockett recently sparked a frenzy on social media when she told a reporter outside the U.S. Capitol that if she could tell Musk one thing it would be, “F— off.”
