Crockett The New Leader Of Democrats?
Radio host Charlamagne tha God is now promoting Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) as the “future” of the Democratic Party, praising her highly aggressive style and urging Democrats to “lean into” her confrontational approach. His comments have sparked fresh debate about the tone and direction of today’s left-wing politics — a debate many Americans, especially older voters, have been watching closely.
During a recent appearance on the Hot & Bothered with Melyssa Ford podcast, Charlamagne claimed that Democrats need a louder, harsher voice to take on President Donald Trump.
According to him, Crockett has the kind of attitude the party should be embracing.
Charlamagne argued that Trump “says whatever he wants” and that Crockett is one of the few Democrats willing to go “all in” against Republicans — a comparison many conservatives view as both flawed and revealing.
Crockett’s Past Attack on Marjorie Taylor Greene Still Raises Eyebrows
Crockett became a social-media sensation last year after taking a personal swipe at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), mocking her appearance in a moment that went viral across left-wing platforms.
Conservatives widely condemned the remark as yet another example of the Democratic Party normalizing personal insults, identity-driven attacks, and hostile rhetoric — even while lecturing the country about “civility.”
Despite that backlash, Charlamagne held her up as a “phenomenal messenger,” signaling what kind of tone he believes Democrats should adopt moving forward.
Democrats Still Struggling With Messaging After Major Election Losses
More than a year after losing the House, Senate, and White House, Democrats remain deeply divided over what message — if any — resonates with the American public.
Some demand the party move further left, while others warn that the extreme rhetoric is driving independents and older voters toward President Trump and Republican candidates.
Charlamagne’s endorsement of Crockett’s aggressive style highlights the internal split:
Do Democrats want more moderation, or more confrontation?
Crockett Now Hinting at a Texas Senate Run
Crockett has also begun previewing a potential U.S. Senate campaign in Texas.
Appearing on SiriusXM, she claimed recent polling shows she could win a Democratic primary. She suggested that Republican-led redistricting efforts have motivated her to consider a statewide race.
She even framed a possible campaign as political payback, saying that if lawmakers try to dissolve her current district, she may attempt to take “a seat representing 30 million people.”
What This Says About the Democratic Party in 2025
Charlamagne’s enthusiastic backing of Crockett offers a clear look into the direction some Democrats want to take:
- More inflammatory rhetoric
- More personal attacks
- More ideological extremism
- Less focus on issues older voters actually care about — such as the economy, border security, national stability, and energy independence
For many conservative Americans, especially those 50 and older, this shift only underscores how far today’s Democratic Party has moved from traditional values and respectful debate.
