Rep. Jasmine Crockett Announces Senate Run With Video Response to Trump
December 9, 2025
U.S. Representative Jasmine Crockett is officially running for Senate in Texas in 2026, and she announced her campaign with a video that says absolutely nothing. Literally.
Crockett posted a clip where she silently looks off-screen as former President Trump’s voice plays, calling her a “very low IQ person.” She then turns to the camera and smiles. The screen fades to black with only the message: “Crockett for U.S. Senate.”
No speech, no slogan, no response. Just Trump’s insult, followed by silence, a smile, and a campaign title. The video has gone viral for its simplicity and its clear message: she does not need to defend herself. The clip doubled as both a political launch and a clap back without a word spoken.
