'There Is One Specific Candidate': Jasmine Crockett Hints At Dem Nominee For 2028
HuffPost
"I had a donor on the phones with me telling me that all the donors are lining up behind that candidate," the Texas Democrat teased Thursday.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) shared some intriguing insights Thursday on the SiriusXM show “Urban View” about the future of the Democratic Party — and said donors are already eyeing “one specific candidate” to run for president in the 2028 election.
In preview clip shared Friday from the full conversation releasing next week, Crockett — who was joined by Pennsylvania State Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta (D), vice chair for the Democratic National Committee — said internal chatter has practically confirmed the candidate will be male.
“It is this fear that the people within the party, within the primary system, will have about voting for a woman because every time we voted for a woman, we’ve lost,” she said in the Instagram clip. “So far. And I think that that’s a natural fear because we just want to win.”
“So there’s a lot of people that are like, ‘You know what? Let’s go find the safest white boy we can find,’” Crockett continued. “I mean, I’m just saying.”
“Urban View” co-host Clay Cane, whose channel regularly covers subjects impacting the Black community — including politics, economics and social issues — chimed in to note that these are the exact assumptions his listeners have been making and calling in to discuss.
It's “significant, certainly, if that’s something you start seeing across the board," said the NBC News chief data analyst.
