Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett revealed that Democrat donors are backing the ‘safest white boy’ possible for their next presidential candidate.
The congresswoman, known for her strong opposition to Trump, has emerged as one of his most vocal critics during his second term. In response, Donald Trump has labeled Crockett a ‘very low-IQ person.’
Recently, Crockett attempted to ridicule the president’s policies during a House DOGE subcommittee hearing on transgender athletes by creating a game she called ‘Trump or Trans.’
Trump’s comment about Crockett’s intelligence came after she sparked outrage among conservatives by referring to Texas Governor Greg Abbott as ‘Gov. Hot Wheels,’ in reference to his use of a wheelchair.
Crockett later said she was referring to Abbott bussing illegal immigrants out of the country, but the damage was done.
Now, the liberal firebrand has admitted that Democrat donors are eying up ‘the safest white boy’ possible for the 2028 presidential race after losing recent elections with candidates who are women and people of color.
‘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, so far,’ she said on SiriusXM show Urban Views.
‘And I think that’s a natural fear because we just want to win. So there’s a lot of people that are like, you know what? Like, let’s go find the safest white boy we can find. I mean, I’m just saying.’

While she did not say who ‘the safest white boy’ is, the Texas Democrat shared that the donors are backing one specific person.
‘I can tell you that there is one specific candidate. I had a donor on the phones with me telling me that all the donors are lining up behind that candidate. So I can tell, and I tell you, it’s not a black person nor a woman,’ Crockett said.
‘So they have – quote-unquote, “they” – have chosen. When I say “they,” it’s the same donors that most likely had their opinions about Joe Biden and moved… that would be the “they” that I would talk about.’
Crockett’s 2028 prediction differs from a recent CNN poll that found liberals believe Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the person who best reflects the party’s key principles – although there wasn’t a clear winner, and many respondents had no opinion at all.
The survey asked Democrats and Democratic-leaning Independent voters which politician best reflects Democratic Party’s core values today.
Ten percent of voters chose AOC, while former Vice President Kamala Harris was a close second with nine percent of the votes.
Sanders came in third with eight percent, while House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries was placed fourth with six percent.
Former President Barack Obama and Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett were tied for fifth with four percent.
California Governor Gavin Newsom, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer were all tied at two percent.
Another fifteen Democrats, including some lawmakers and governors, each received one percent of the votes, while a whopping 26 percent of respondents had no opinion.
Last week, Trump even suggested that Newsom run in 2028, saying, ‘I’d love him to run for president on the other side.’
He brought up Newsom in a backhanded way, once again turning his name into an insult by calling him ‘Gavin New-scum’ while seated alongside new Canadian PM Mark Carney at an event where Trump softened his push to make Canada the 51st state by saying it ‘takes two to tango.’
