President Donald Trump has fired back at “lowlife” Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) after she mocked the disability of wheelchair-bound Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
Trump slammed Crockett as a “very low IQ person” after she called his longtime close ally “Governor Hot Wheels.”
As Slay News reported, Crockett mocked Abbott for relying on a wheelchair for mobility while she spoke at a benefit dinner for a far-left group over the weekend.
“We in these hot a*s Texas streets, honey,” Crockett said during her speech at a benefit in Los Angeles for the LGBTQ advocacy group Human Rights Campaign.
“Y’all know we got Governor Hot Wheels down there, come on now!” she said, laughing.
“And the only thing hot about him is that he is a hot a*s mess, honey!”
Crockett’s shocking comments were met with cheers and laughter from the “woke” crowd.

Trump reacted to Crockett’s dispicable comments during an interview with conservative radio host Vince Coglianese on Wednesday.
The president issued sharp bipartisan criticism of the “progressive” congresswoman.
“But she’s a lowlife, and she’s a very low-IQ person,” Trump told Coglianese.
“I don’t imagine the Democrats are going to have a person like that running their party.”
The comments generated outrage among conservatives on social media.
Amid the backlash, Crockett responded to on Tuesday afternoon.
However, she issued a weak attempt at denying she was mocking the governor for being in a wheelchair.
Abbott was left paralyzed at 26 when he was hit by a falling tree while jogging in 1984 and has been in a wheelchair since.
In a post on X, Crockett lazily tried to deny the allegations while attempting to twist the narrative into a claim that Abbott’s border policies are racially motivated.
“I wasn’t thinking about the governor’s condition—I was thinking about the planes, trains, and automobiles he used to transfer migrants into communities led by black mayors, deliberately stoking tension and fear among the most vulnerable,” she wrote.

Literally, the next line I said was that…

Abbott responded during an episode of Fox News’s “Hannity.”
The Republican governor told host Sean Hannity:
“It’s another day and another disaster by the Democrats.
“The reality is they have no vision, no policy.
“They have nothing to sell but hate, and Americans are not buying it.”
Coglianese told Trump he believed Crockett’s X post denying the allegations was a “pretty brazen lie.”
“She’s been called out for that,” Coglianese noted.
“She later came out on X and she claimed that she was just actually talking about when he was bussing illegals around the country, which seems to me like a pretty brazen lie on the lawmaker’s part.”
“Well, it’s a lie,” Trump said. “And she lies.”
Trump added that if the Democratic Party ever puts someone like Crockett in a leadership role, “They’ll never win an election again.
“It would be very hard,” he noted.
Elsewhere, Trump mentioned that when he first saw viral videos of the congresswoman, he assumed she had a different profession.
“At first, I thought she was a comedian,” Trump said, getting a laugh out of the host.
“I couldn’t believe she was a congressman or whatever she is.”
He admitted he thought she “was a little bit funny, but crude, and now I found out she’s actually a politician.”
“The Democrats are going to suffer with this one,” he added.

Despite her sluggish attempt to deny that she was mocking the governor’s disabilty, Crockett has made disparaging references to Abbott’s wheelchair in the past.
Crockett has a history of making comments about Abbott “rolling” places, seeming to mock his condition.
Just last week, the congresswoman reposted a post featuring Abbott in the White House.
The post read: “Rolling up to the White House to cheer on the president destroying the agency that makes sure kids in wheelchairs have equal access to education is wild.”
During his re-election campaign against failed Democrat candidate Robert “Beto” O’Rourke, Crockett again slammed Abbott on X.
“The new nickname I have for Beto O’Rourke is the king of the clap-backs!” Crockett said.
“Beto is rolling around the state… Where is Abbott rolling to?”
