For example, a Republican campaigning in a predominantly Democratic county likely wouldn&#8217;t focus on the same topics as they would in a Republican-leaning area. Similarly, a Democrat trying to win a Senate seat in heavily Republican Texas should probably avoid relying solely on anti-Trump rhetoric, especially since President Trump won the state by an unusually large margin recently, as reported by CBS News.  <\/p>\n<p>Democratic Texas Representative Jasmine Crockett is aiming for higher office and announced her candidacy for the Senate seat currently held by Republican John Cornyn-who himself faces tough primary competition from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and U.S. Representative Wesley Hunt.<\/p>\n<p>Crockett, who previously won election in her strongly Democratic district, kicked off her campaign with an unusual video that featured clips of President Trump repeatedly calling her &#8220;low IQ.&#8221; The video shows Crockett dressed in black against a dark background while these soundbites play.<\/p>\n<p>This approach is quite strange. While such a tactic might make some sense if she were running in states like California or New York-where simply opposing Trump could be effective-in deeply conservative Texas it appears to be a major misstep. Crockett has been known for making questionable decisions before.<\/p>\n<p>Though this writer personally disagrees with Crockett&#8217;s views and finds little value in them (just as Democrats might dismiss opinions about professional wrestling), many Democrats themselves are skeptical about her chances. One Democratic strategist bluntly said that supporting Crockett would be like &#8220;lighting $50 million on fire&#8221; and losing badly; they believe she has no realistic shot at winning the Senate race in Texas<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2518994,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Crockett-senate-launch-ad.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[68462,34059,34125,62585,68463],"class_list":["post-2518993","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-campaign-kickoff","tag-election-2024","tag-jasmine-crockett","tag-political-video","tag-trump-insults"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Crockett-senate-launch-ad.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2518993","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2518993"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2518993\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2518997,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2518993\/revisions\/2518997"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2518994"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2518993"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2518993"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2518993"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
