Rep. Jasmine Crockett Questions Future of U.S. Elections Under Trump Presidency

The Texas Democrat voiced concerns about the state of democracy, suggesting that the 2028 elections may not occur as expected.

  • Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) speculated on CNN that the U.S. may not hold elections in 2028, citing concerns about President Donald Trump's leadership.
  • Her comments came in response to a question about whether she would support Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) challenging Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in a 2028 primary.
  • Crockett avoided giving a definitive answer about supporting Ocasio-Cortez, stating she might have a clearer position in two years.
  • She pointed to dissatisfaction within the Democratic Party over Schumer’s recent support of a GOP-led spending bill to avert a government shutdown.
  • Crockett also highlighted a broader desire among some Americans for younger and fresher political leadership in the coming years.
