Rep. Jasmine Crockett: ‘I Didn‘t Get Here by Doing It the Traditional Way’; ‘The Establishment Was Always Against Me’

EXCERPT:

CROCKETT: “So, listen, we‘re going to barnstorm through the state as well. As you and I both know, I still have a job in D.C., and I‘m on a 48-hour call right now to go back and deal with DHS funding. But I didn‘t get here by doing it the traditional way. I can tell you that the establishment was always against me. I can tell you that, you know, I had all odds stacked against me. My very first race for the State House, I was outspent 5 to 1. We do know that there was a specific intent to try to defund our campaign, as we saw podcasters specifically saying, do not send money to Jasmine Crockett. We know the operative that is behind my opponent‘s campaign that has specifically been peddling these stories to New York and D.C. That‘s why the stories aren‘t coming out of Texas, but instead they‘re coming from New York and D.C., just like the podcasters are coming out of New York and D.C. But I have faith in the Texans, right?”
