Well, if you were hoping for serious leadership from the Democrats this week… buckle up. Because what we got instead was a surreal grab bag of TikTok-tier performances, cat cartoons, and late-night Blair Witch monologues. All while the government shut down—on their watch.
Yep. The same Democrats who gleefully marched us into yet another federal shutdown, then turned around and staged the most melodramatic social media theater imaginable, complete with shaky-cam horror shorts and cringe-inducing cosplay, pretending it wasn’t their fault. Spoiler alert: it was.
Let’s rewind the tape.
First came the group photo. A sunny caption slapped on what was basically a hostage situation: “House Democrats are in DC and ready to cancel the cuts, lower the costs, save health care.” Noble, right? Until you remember they were refusing to fund the government unless their wishlist was met. That’s not governing — that’s tantrum diplomacy. But sure, let’s all smile for the camera like we’re saving the planet instead of grinding it to a halt.
Then it gets… weirder.
Democrat Rep. Tim McBride — sorry, “Sarah” now — thought it would be fun to LARP through the Capitol, filming a skit about searching for Republicans. You know, instead of sitting down and doing the job taxpayers are footing the bill for. The premise? That Republicans need to “work together” with Democrats. Translation: Republicans should surrender completely and sign off on every progressive fantasy being floated this week.
