"I think that my responsibility is to be transparent and to be honest, and the reality is that we are living in a time in which this administration and this regime is not interested in making sure that people understand history, Crockett said. We need to understand why they are so problematic. And so I am using that language because it is accurate language."
"When we see the consolidation of power, when we see them trying to chill speech of jokesters, when we're seeing all of this, that is the playbook out of Hitler. And I won't deny it. Crockett continued her wordy diatribe by saying Trump, by inciting violence on January 6th, 2021 and his other actions, has shown he is an authoritarian."
Rep. Jasmine Crockett refused to retract comments comparing President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler, insisting the comparison is accurate. She appeared on CNN's State of the Union and was shown clips of her calling Trump a wannabe Hitler and celebrating inflammatory remarks. Crockett declined to lower the political temperature despite host Dana Bash citing the recent killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Crockett said the administration consolidates power, chills speech, and downplays historical facts such as slavery, and that those actions mirror Hitler's playbook. She characterized Trump as an authoritarian citing January 6, 2021 and other actions as evidence.
