Former SNL Star Bowen Yang Warns Democrats Not to ‘Waste Your Money' on Jasmine Crockett's Senate Run

Matt Rogers called donations to Jasmine Crockett a waste, citing her defined political profile and poor winning prospects, and suggested supporting Texas candidate James Talarico instead.

  • Matt Rogers, comedian and Las Culturistas cohost, told viewers `And don't waste your money sending to Jasmine Crockett` and argued donors would be wasting money on her Senate bid.
  • On the podcast, Matt Rogers said he prefers James Talarico, Democratic member of the Texas House of Representatives, because Rep. Jasmine Crockett is already very well-defined and Democrats need a less defined candidate now.
  • Clips circulated online and Bowen Yang said `I must agree` before Rogers elaborated; one creator, @2RawTooReal, posted a counter video, which Loni Love quote-tweeted with a critique.
  • Rep. Jasmine Crockett has faced criticism from both left and right during her 2025 Senate campaign, with Vice President J.D. Vance questioning her authenticity; on The View, Crockett told Joy Behar, `Joy, you know it's racist`, and Entertainment Weekly sought comment.
  • Looking toward 2028, Rogers argued Gavin Newsom may not translate into wins despite gearing up, and if Beto O'Rourke couldn't win Texas Senate, Crockett likely won't either.
