It's like he's dying of siphillus, or perhaps lead poisoning.

Regardless, he is not well.

First, making the assumption--quite likely false--that back when slaves got their owners' names some relative of Davy Crockett owned her fairly distant male ancestor. Yeah, it's possible, but since Wiki says it derives from "large curl" (of what sort, unsaid) why not have a few originators of the name when surnames was passed out in medieval/renaissance England; I have trouble thinking my surname was issued to one and only one male and his family).

Second, that it's deeply sarcastic, dissing her by saying how proud a prominent American 'hero' of some stature ('high IQ' in some way, but hey, the Stanford-Binet scale pales compared to emotional and whatever other kinds of intelligence, right?) when really he's saying he'd be deeply ashamed of her on so many counts.

Sarcasm is tricky. If it's perceived wrong--and who can predict that?--it's taken as an assertion. Trump uses sarcasm a lot, and if something comes off too weirdly you should think, "Hey, maybe it's sarcasm and my views and 'stance' don't like it." In other words, being flexible enough to adopt another, fairly foreign perspective.

Here's the video Trump posted with that tweet about Jasmine Crockett.

The song is from the Davy Crockett TV show that aired on ABC from 1954-55, when Trump was about 9 years old.

I know what you’re thinking, “Hey James, I don’t suppose Audience of One had a section on Davy Crockett and its influence on American kids of Trump’s generation?” Smart question, you, because it does!

I can't imagine its real. That sounds like a complement.

He didn’t write this, I think. If I had to guess, I'd go with something like Stephen Miller, drunk on some really shitty wine and maybe a pinch of the pills they took out of Tiger Woods’ pocket.

Jasmine Crockett
@JasmineForUS
The President is clearly already missing me as many others will… but, lucky for you, Sir, I’m in the seat until January and have no plans of taking my foot off the gas on behalf of the American people 🥰.

I wonder if this has anything to do with my questioning of Pam Bondi????!!!

But MAGAs aren’t smart enough to know that.

I've already seen one story posted here about how black voters were going to be reluctant to vote for Talarico in November. It's the same bullshit nefarious actors have been trying ever since it worked so well in 2016.

If Crockett’s voters decide not to vote for Talarico it will be the exact same outcome when Cornyn was up for reelection and a lot of Rep. Royce West voters did not vote for the senate nominee in Nov and we lost to Cornyn.

I just hope and pray that Jasmine will campaign with James to get rid of the republican stronghold on this senate seat. I believe that will be the best outcome for us Texas democrats.

His messages are one-note signals to his base. He always pushes old-fashioned American exceptionalism. His followers love Trump's reassurance that "America" was "won" by strong, fearless white men directed by Killer Jesus (not the Jesus in the Bible - that Jesus is a Communist) to eradicate the "Red Man" and use enslaved Black people to build wealth and power. The strong fearless white men are assisted in this endeavor by their horses, dogs, and wives (in that order of priority).

Liberals have weakened this Great Country by emasculating white men and promoting women and people of "other races" into positions of power they weren't made by God to handle. God, in the guise of Killer Jesus, is unhappy.

Trump is Our Great Nation's last, best hope to restore the Natural Order of Things. A lot of people are going to have to die to save Our Nation but their sacrifices will be worth it to the white men like Pete Hegseth who take over.

Whenever Trump feels sad or scared (which is most of the time lately) he fires off another installment of this White Male Supremacist fantasy and basks in the positive feedback of millions of Americans who want to believe this shit because it makes them feel less sad and scared.

Specifically, this message calls upon a 1960s TV show about a fictionalized American hero that Trump probably watched while stuffing his face as a teenager. The reference to Jasmine Crockett is, as others here have suggested, a hint that she is descended from a rapist and an enslaved woman. That's a fantasy that the Epstein documents reveal that Trump really, really likes.
