Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, reacted to some remarks her opponent, Texas state Rep. James Talarico, allegedly made about their former opponent in the Senate race, Colin Allred, during a podcast Monday, taking aim at what "well-intentioned White folk" say about minorities behind closed doors.
"As a political candidate, before my opponent responded, I absolutely stuck with the 'allegedly' type of language," Crockett said during an interview with Gerren Keith Gaynor from The Grio.
Crockett added that reading his statement through the lens of being a criminal defense attorney, he says, "'Oh, you said it.' Right? Because, now, it’s 'Oh, she misinterpreted.' Because of course the Black woman would misinterpret, right?
