Trump meets his match on MS NOW as Dem vet slams 'draft dodger' threat: 'Bring it!'

President Donald Trump got more than he bargained for Friday after a top House Democrat blasted his latest threat of prosecution.

Jason Crow (D-CO) took aim at Trump's latest threat to prosecute him during an interview with MS NOW's Peter Alexander on "State of Play."

"Bring it, Donald Trump. Bring it!" Crow said. "If he thinks I'm afraid of him and his cronies and his sycophants and DOGE, he's mistaken."

Trump posted on Truth Social on Thursday that the "seditious six" should be brought to justice. The term refers to Crow and five other Democrats who made a social media video reminding military members that they don't have to follow illegal orders.

The post was Trump's second threat against the same group of lawmakers. In November 2025, Trump said the six Democrats should be tried for seditious behavior, a crime he called “punishable by death!”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth censured Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) and sought to retroactively demote him from his retired rank of captain. In February 2026, a federal grand jury declined to indict the lawmakers.

"The first time he tried to indict me, he was mistaken," Crow said. "The second time he tried to indict me. He threatened to have me executed, tried for treason. Bring it. I'm not afraid of him. I'm doing my duty. I'm doing my job. I'm going to keep doing my duty. I'm going to continue to do my job. And if he thinks I'm afraid of a five-time draft dodger after going to war three times for this country, he's got another thing coming."
