Crockett ‘appalled’ at critics’ interpretation of her Abbott remark

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) is pushing back on criticism from Republicans claiming she mocked Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s (R) wheelchair use while giving a speech over the weekend. 

While speaking at the Human Rights Campaign LA dinner on Saturday, Crockett referred to Greg Abbott as “Governor Hot Wheels” who is a “hot a— mess.”
