Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other Democratic congresswomen appeared in an anti-Trump “Choose Your Fighter” TikTok clip that went viral for all the wrong reasons.
The video, initially posted by cookbook author and influencer Sulhee Jessica Woo, was immediately roasted by users on X.
Watch:
The Trump administration didn’t waste time trolling the congresswomen with their own White House montage, which showed President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and other members of the Republican administration with the caption “America Chose Its Fighters Last November.”
The clip featured Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on horseback and border czar Tom Homan walking away from a helicopter.
Also appearing in the video were Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, FBI Director Kash Patel, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.
Watch:
Meanwhile, the Democratic House members’ video, which included Ocasio-Cortez, Rep. Lauren Underwood of Illinois, Rep. Katherine Clark of Massachusetts, Rep. Judy Chu of California, Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas, and Rep. Susie Lee of Nevada, was widely mocked on social media.
AOC, who appeared in the clip, said “She is a Trekkie,” while Clark, 61, said she doesn’t like hair dye.
Crockett, 43, disclosed she’s not a morning person, while Underwood, 38, insisted she doesn’t like balloons.
Unsurprisingly, the clip failed to hit the mark.
“Democrats Not Be Cringe Challenge,” the Trump administration’s Rapid Response account wrote on X. “Level: Impossible.”
“The problem isn’t policy failures, economic anxiety, or a general sense that everything is coming apart at the seams,” political writer Matt Lewis wrote.
“No, no — the real issue is that voters just don’t know how much fun their representatives are!”
Punchbowl News reporter Ben Brody called it “hilariously cringey.”
“One of the worst parts about this: the Choose Your Fighter trend was popular on TikTok like 3 years ago,” journalist Peter Hamby wrote.
