Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) compared Democrats to “Superman” while predicting Republicans in the House will be in a constant state of “disarray” headed into the new year following the chaos surrounding a spending bill to avoid a government shutdown.

Crockett, who voted “present” on the final approved spending bill, joined MSNBC’s Ali Velshi on Saturday to discuss a government shutdown being avoided at the last minute following President-elect Donald Trump and Elon Musk helping to kill an original spending bill supported by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA).

“You guys still can’t get your house in order, not you, but the Republicans can’t get their house in order,” Velshi said. “I was about to say, Ali, don’t put that on us!” Crockett replied. The lawmaker continued:

Democrats are swooping in like Superman and super women to make sure they can take care of the American people, but I just need the American people to have longer memories because, as you stated, this Congress ended on the same note that it began, but for some reason we will not have a Speaker Jeffries on January 3. We knew that these Republicans in their slim majority were unable to get anything done and the crazy part is that Nancy Pelosi had the same slim majority but, guess what, we weren’t always in a state of crises and they are going to go into the 119th [Congress] with an even slimmer majority.
