Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) mocked President Donald Trump after he aired his political grievances to cadets during a rambling commencement speech at West Point over the weekend.
During his rant, Trump complained that he had been "through more investigations than Alphonse Capone" and noted that "a lot of trophy wives [don't] work out." He also complained about "drag shows" in the U.S. armed forces.
"I am tired of it," Crockett said Sunday in response to the president's diatribe. "I mean, he literally sounds like someone who is broken out of the insane asylum. Like, he just be all over the place."
"Like, get him some ADHD medicine, if nothing else, because I don't know where he's ever going to go," she continued. "And I don't think that those that have gone through West Point expected to have their commander-in-chief address them and start talking about trophy wives or start talking about how he had so many investigations."
"What a great reminder that you are not qualified to be the person that potentially will command us as troops to go into war. Like, that is not instilling confidence whatsoever. And honestly, our troops deserve better. Our graduates deserve better. We as a country deserve better."
Crockett argued that the speech was a sign that Republicans should question Trump's mental capacity.
"We know when it comes down to his criminality, he is not qualified to serve," she observed. "But this is just absolutely deplorable."
