In a recent interview with MSNBC, Jasmine Crockett criticized GOP officials for continuing to follow President Donald Trump's lead despite growing controversies."They want to show they're loyal to this, you know, I don't even know what to call him," she said. "I've called him so many things, but wannabe Hitler for sure."

Jasmine Crockett also accused President Donald Trump and his allies of trying to suppress information surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case."[Republican officials] want to pledge their loyalty to him, and they know that he does not want this released," Crockett said.
Trump has recently faced backlash for not releasing related files, calling them a "hoax."
"I don't understand why the Jeffrey Epstein case would be of interest to anybody," the president stated. "It's pretty boring stuff. It's sordid, but it's boring, and I don't understand why it keeps going."

President Donald Trump has reportedly entertained conspiracy theories suggesting Jeffrey Epstein's death was a cover-up, not a suicide.However, the FBI recently released a memo about the convicted s** trafficker's death and claimed he did not maintain a "client list" of co-conspirators.
Earlier this year, Attorney General Pam Bondi seemingly hinted that she had a list of names on her desk, though she later clarified she was referring to the Epstein case directly.

As public backlash over the FBI memo continues, Jasmine Crockett believes that President Donald Trump's allies will continue to fall in line."I think they are also concerned about the damage that it may do. If he's trying to hide it, they understand that it is most likely problematic for him as well as the MAGA brand," she said.
"I don't anticipate that they will be on board for doing anything that may harm them or their fearless leader," she added.
