Jasmine Crockett brings receipts to give Republican's claim brutal fact check
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) fact-checked Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) after he claimed President Donald Trump's approval rating was "soaring."
During a House DOGE Subcommittee hearing on Tuesday, Crockett blasted Republicans for "following one person" instead of listening to voters.
"The reason that people like me say things like y'all are in a cult is because somehow people are abdicating their duties and abdicating the very people that put them into office," she remarked.
Burchett began his time by praising Trump.
"I would remind members of both sides of the aisle that President Trump's approval rating is soaring and last I checked, congressional approval is not," the Republican lawmaker said.
Crockett disputed Burchett by entering contrary documents into the official record.
"This is just from a couple of hours ago," she explained. "Trump pivots to distractions as polls show collapsing support for his agenda."
"The next one is Donald Trump's approval rating plunges in multiple polls," she continued. "The next one: Donald Trump's approval rating, new polls show shakeup over Iran bombing... the next one: Trump's approval rating drops to term low amid Israel-Iran war."
