(DCNF)—Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett said on “Taco Policy” Tuesday that former Vice President Kamala Harris’ “team” initially rejected her offer to campaign in “rural America” during the 2024 presidential election.
Crockett, who has risen to prominence with her racially-charged rants and incendiary anti-Republican attacks, announced on X on Aug. 28, 2024, that she had been named a national co-chair for the Harris campaign. She said on the podcast that she had requested to cease campaigning in urban areas and demanded to be sent to rural ones, but they did not take her up on it until it was too late.

“[W]hen it came down to the presidential, I told the team, I said, ‘Stop sending me to all the urban centers. Yes, I can do that. Yes, but you’ve got plenty of surrogates that can go do that,’” Crockett said. “‘You need to send me to rural America.’ And they were looking like, ‘Huh?’”
“And I’m like, ‘Listen, I was in East Texas. I live there. I know the struggles. I know what it’s like when the paper mill is threatened with shutting down … I know the struggles and the angst,’” she added. “‘I know how these small-town economies work. I get it because I lived it. I still have property out there. I’m like, ‘Just try me. Like, trust me on this,’ right?”
Crockett said they eventually said they wanted her to campaign in rural areas, but by that point, she did not have sufficient availability to do so.
Harris’ office did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.
President Donald Trump ultimately overperformed with rural voters in the 2024 race.
Moreover, Democratic strategist James Carville urged urban Democrats to express remorse to rural Americans for disrespecting them on a March episode of his “Politics War Room” podcast.
“The stupidity of we got to be the most progressive, self-righteous, moralistic people in the world and, you know, people that live in rural America are just, you know, fat, lazy and stupid, which is decidedly not true,” Carville said. “But that’s the way that some of the urbanist elements of our party have tried to come across. And it’s stupid, and they ought to apologize to the rural for being so goddamn stupid.”
