Jasmine Crockett was recently pressed on CNN about why she is not working hard to help James Talarico, who beat her in the Texas Democrat primary for Senate. She said that she is focusing on down ballot races.
There is no mystery here. Crockett feels like she got burned by her own party in the primary race and she did. Who can blame her for not wanting to help Talarico win?
It’s also fun to watch the media begin to panic about this. Some of them will blame her if Talarico loses.
Townhall has details:
During an interview with CNN’s Laura Coates, Crockett was asked about whether she plans to help Talarico win more voters.
“I will be campaigning down ballot,” the lawmaker answered. “I think that what matters most—because when we’re looking at a state like Texas, we’ve tried this where we’ve got one amazing candidate that’s running at the top of the ticket, Beto [O’Rourke], is a very good example of this, raising all the money, doing all the things, running around the entire state, but it’s not enough.”
Crockett indicated that her objective is to help Democrat candidates in other races that may not get as much attention because of Talarico’s candidacy.
“So for me, I don’t think that it should be a matter of there’s just one thing that is getting me to the polls,” Crockett continued.
I think that making sure that people that maybe are getting overshadowed because it seems like it’s only about one big race, I think amplifying them, making sure that I can raise their profiles and introducing them to people, that’ll give something more to voters to make them say, you know what, it may be raining outside, but I got to go get there because I got to go get there for this person and this person. Plus, I don’t like Trump.

To be fair to Crockett, her not campaigning for Talarico is the least of his problems.
He is an awful candidate and his fake Christian act is an insult to genuine people of faith.
