  • If you attack me and you get injured while I'm defending myself, why are you asking me if I regret defending myself?
  • Why are black people suppose to keep quiet when insulted? Mrs. Crockett did the right thing and I hope she doesn't hold back when confronted!!šŸ˜®
  • @SunkissFlower
    Thank you, Representative Crockett for not genuflecting. I am sick of folks expecting Black people to forgive others who have wrong them.
  • @dygorgeous3272
    Sorry, you are Not tripping up Rep. Crockett. Thatā€™s what happen when you actually elect intelligent, competent representatives.
  • @reneamcgee984
    So the narrative is she can insult you, but others shouldnā€™t insult her back. Please, donā€™t dish it if you canā€™t take it.
  • @Vonnie777
    She called her out. Don't start nothing, and it won't be nothing. PEOPLE ARE TIRED OF BEING BULLIED
  • @Mr-pl5sv
    Crockett called out MTG and Comer without naming either. Brilliant! No remorse necessary. šŸ‘šŸ¾šŸ‘šŸ¾šŸ‘šŸ¾
  • @dabeage
    Tapper is an embarrassment, fortunately Crockett is smarter than he and handled him brilliantly.
  • @Jae-zx2fc
    Jake, you BLEW IT! Your attempt to elicit an apology from someone who was attacked by MTG is deplorable. Please check your implicit bias and reflect.
  • @cccro6228
    This is going too far even for Jake Tapper. Why aren't you interviewing Marjorie Taylor Greene because she's the one that started this ordeal?
  • @chipsdad5861
    MTG is actually commiting work place harassment. Anyone else would have been fired.
  • He really sitting there expecting this lady to apologize, Black's are always expected to take "the high road ".
  • @AfrodityJones
    Really, Jake? So, a black woman defending herself against a bully has to be questioned about her response, why?
  • @mitsumeeshi
    She called out a bully. Simple. Marjorie Taylor Greene has been bullying people all over the place, and yet she is still in Congress? I don't understand this.
  • @MaBabygirlP
    Jake Trapper seems as if was blaming Rep. Crockett for talking about MTG. I wish ABC news would look into that. He was very condescending to her.
  • @barrysaddy
    You weren't listening to what Rep Crockett ask for "CLARIFICATION"
  • This is the same woman that held up poster sized photos of people engaging in sexual activity at a house committee meeting,and was not held responsible for breaching decorum rules, I'm so glad Rep Crockett finally checked this monster.
  • @FlowerPow-tz1cn
    Stop asking black people if they forgive their victimizers and stop asking democrats if they are sorry for defending themselves when republicans never apologize. Any parent will tell Ther child to get away from the bullies but if they canā€™t then itā€™s ok to defend yourself. B6 has been bullying adults and children alike for the last 10 years and itā€™s time she learned her lesson. Lesson being that if you canā€™t say something nice about someone then donā€™t say anything at all.
  • @Lorimay63
    The cause of the chaos, as Congresswoman Crockett stated, IS always MTG. Why is she allowed to waste congresses' time to serve the people.
  • @kalishiva1643
    Jake Tapper failed the interview! He should watch the exchange between the congresswomen again because Congress woman Crockett asked a question about decorum on the house floor and gave an example of a questions. If the questions resemble MTG then that on her because there was no direct insult, Shame on Jake Tapper for being so short minded. I hope he's not the one who will be asking the questions during the Presidential Debate.
