Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) insists she wasn’t mocking Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) for using a wheelchair when she called him “Governor Hot Wheels” in a speech over the weekend.
“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,” Crockett dubiously wrote Tuesday on social media.
