Senate Democrats are trying to rebrand themselves. After years of constantly working to stop anything Trump wanted to do, they suddenly want everyone to know that they are not here to be ‘against’ anyone.
They suddenly claim to want you to be able to keep more of your paycheck and that they want to work to bring down the cost of living.
The video that they produced to deliver this message is pure cringe and they are getting dragged for it on social media.
FOX News reports:
Montage of Senate Democrats pledging to oppose Trump’s bad policies mocked as ‘cringe’
Senate Democrats released a video on Thursday to message their priorities ahead of President-elect Donald Trump taking office, however the video was met with criticism for being out of touch and “cringe.”
Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J. shared the video on his X account and captioned with, “Senate Democrats are here to fight for you.”
In the video, Senate Democrats spoke directly to the camera, promising to work with “anyone” that would make life better but would oppose President-elect Donald Trump and Republicans if they “do things to hurt you.”
Several Democratic senators, who are from close states or are up for re-election, were noticeably absent from the video. Sens. John Fetterman, Pa., Jeanne Shaheen, N.H., Maggie Hassan, N.H., Ruben Gallego, Ariz., Mark Kelly, Ariz., Jon Ossoff, Ga., Gary Peters, Mich., Chris Murphy, Conn., did not appear in the video.

What were they thinking?
Liberals: Why aren’t we 50 points ahead?! What haven’t we tried yet?
How about a first-person montage video where different people repeat the same lines one after another?
Consultant: Brilliant! And if that doesn’t work, try singing “Imagine.”

They fight for you with the Power of Cringe.
(Senator Booker himself looks like a slightly ornery 7th grader who has been told not to mess up the class video.) https://t.co/ggexasVFCP

NOW they’re going to fight for workers & their families!?!
So you’re all done crushing railroad union strikes & flooding the country with millions of desperate people to suppress wages?
And all it took was Americans to elect Trump & a Republican congress?
Who Knew?!? https://t.co/p1Pp9nZyX1

It’s as if these Democrats took advice on making a video from a bunch of liberal Hollywood celebrities. It’s so bad.
