A top Democrat in the House of Representatives made a surprising prediction about her run for a Senate seat in Texas on Monday during an interview on CNN.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) joined CNN's "Laura Coates Live" on Monday night to discuss her Senate run, which she announced earlier that day. Her announcement ended months of speculation that Crockett would run for Senate after Texas Republicans redrew the state's congressional map, and made Crockett's district more competitive for Republicans.

During the interview, Crockett said that she expects to pick up support from a surprising group of voters.

"A lot of people continue to think that this is about policy, yet they can't really explain how it is that you have Mamdani-Trump voters or how you have Obama-Trump voters, or how you have AOC-Trump voters," Crockett said. "The reality is that's where we are going to walk that fine line."

"We are going to be able to get people that potentially have voted for Trump, even though I obviously am one of his loudest opponents, because at the end of the day, they vote for who they believe is fighting for them," Crockett said. "It's about moving people, and I've got a track record of doing that."

Crockett has been one of President Donald Trump's loudest critics from the Democratic side of the aisle. She has accused him of using his presidential powers to "attack" everyday Americans with immigration raids, and has sharply criticized his handling of the economy and the Jeffrey Epstein files.
