\u201cThe Knicks are up 2-0 and I have to wake up to another deranged rant from this guy,\u201d Jeffries wrote on X. \u201cGas prices are sky high, grocery bills are surging and families can\u2019t catch a break.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDemocrats are about to take back the House and you\u2019re losing your mind,\u201d Jeffries added. \u201cWhere\u2019s the luv?\u201d <\/p>\n
Jeffries\u2019s response came shortly after Trump took to Truth Social<\/a> to accuse the minority leader of inciting the WHCD attempt on his life.<\/p>\n \u201cThis lunatic, Hakeem \u2018Low IQ\u2019 Jeffries, should be charged with INCITING VIOLENCE! The Radical Left Democrats actually want to Destroy our Country,\u201d Trump wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n Trump attached a photo of Jeffries calling for \u201cMaximum warfare\u201d three days before the WHCA shooting, emblazoning the phrase over a picture of Trump.<\/p>\n Trump and Jeffries have escalated their public criticism of each other in recent months.<\/p>\n Last week, Trump called for Jeffries to be impeached over his remarks slamming the Supreme Court\u2019s<\/a> recent decision weakening the Voting Rights Act. Jeffries, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, slammed the decision as \u201cillegitimate\u201d\u00a0and argued that it was \u201cdesigned to undermine the ability of communities of color.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHakeem Jeffries, a Low IQ individual, said our Supreme Court is \u2018illegitimate.\u2019 After saying such a thing, isn\u2019t he subject to Impeachment?\u201d Trump wrote on Sunday<\/a>. \u201cI got impeached for A PERFECT PHONE CALL. Where are you Republicans? Why not get it started? They\u2019ll be doing this to me!\u201d<\/p>\n Jeffries blasted Trump\u2019s comments as \u201cJeffries Derangement Syndrome<\/a>\u201d on X. Previously, the minority leader responded to Trump\u2019s taunts of being \u201cLow IQ\u201d by challenging the president to a debate<\/a>. <\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s extraordinary to me that Donald Trump keeps recycling this \u2018low IQ\u2019 insult,\u201d Jeffries said. \u201cThis from the dumbest president ever to sit at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and there\u2019s not even really a close second.\u201d<\/p>\n
