Jasmine Crockett is standing by her words after seemingly referring to Marjorie Taylor Greene as a “bleach blonde” with a “bad built butch body.”
CNN reports the Democratic Representative doubled down on her words after Greene refused to apologize for referencing Crockett’s “fake eyelashes.”
Speaking to CNN, Jasmine accused Majorie of exhibiting racism.
“That’s all it is, it is racism. And she decided that she was going to be that person out loud and out front on yesterday. The difference is I just wasn’t going to take it laying down,” Crockett said.
Jasmine added, “I have no regrets.” She also said, “If you give [Greene] an inch, she’ll take a mile.”
The Democratic representative stated that Marjorie continuously “breaks the rules of decorum.” Still, Crockett said that she refused to be “anyone’s doormat.”
When asked if Michelle Obama’s mantra, “When they go low, we go high” still applies, Jasmine said Greene “goes to hell” and she does her best to respond to the rhetoric.
Check out the interview below:
As previously reported by The Shade Room, Republican Representative Marjorie fired off her remarks during a House Oversight meeting on Thursday (May 16). The panel met to further contempt proceedings against Attorney General Merrick Garland. For context, the politico refused to hand over recordings of President Biden’s interview with special counsel Robert Hur.
Things turned left after Greene responded to a question Crockett asked by taking a shot at Jasmine’s falsies.
“I think your fake eyelashes are messing up what you’re reading,” Marjorie stated.
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez interjected and ordered Green to apologize. The Democratic stated that her comment was “unacceptable.” Furthermore, she cited her for “attacking the physical appearance of another person.”
Greene refused, stating, “You will never get an apology out of me.” The Democratic members ultimately decided that Greene “did not violate House rules against engaging in ‘personalities’ during debate.”
Crockett got her lick back by saying, “I’m just curious just to better understand your ruling. If someone on this committee then starts talking about somebody’s bleach blond, bad-build butch body that would not be engaging in personalities, correct?”
