Quote:Democrat members of the House have released a new "Choose Your Fighter" promotional video, and Republicans should be terrified...that they'll die from laughter.

In it, an all-female cast of congressional Democrats and one "Bento Box Queen" (sorry, I'm out of the loop on who Suhlee Jessica Woo is) can be seen mimicking a video game's "player selection" screen, bobbing up and down, holding their fists up. Underneath each person are several bullet points, some denoting racial characteristics while others are supposed to be playful references. For example, did you know Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is a "trekkie" or that Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) is "not a morning person?"

Surely, Republicans are finished after this.

Someone really should have helped Rep. Katherine Clark (D-MA) out with her form because it's, in a word, regrettable. One of my favorite parts of the video, though, is what it reveals about the egos of some of the members. Why am I supposed to care that Ocasio-Cortez is the "Youngest woman + Latina to be elected to the House" or that Rep. Judy Chu (D-CA) is the "First Chinese-American elected to Congress?" It's 2025. None of these racial qualifiers are impressive or interesting.

What this video does show is why any attempted reset by the Democratic Party isn't going to work. On Tuesday night, we saw Sen. Elissa Slotkin (MI) give the response to President Donald Trump's congressional address, and you might have thought she was a Republican for half of it. It was full of language about the working class, bringing down prices, and even praised Ronald Reagan. No one believed a word she said, though, because it was obvious the deranged behavior we saw on the House floor during Trump's address is the real Democratic Party.

And that's the thing with this video. Ocasio-Cortez, Crockett, and the like are never going to sit idly by while their party puts on a moderate face and attempts a course correction back to the middle. They have too much invested in their own radicalism, which has greatly elevated their public profiles (much to the delight of Republicans). Does anyone think any of them are going to stop going on CNN and MSNBC to sound like total lunatics? Or that they'll stop releasing silly promotional videos that make themselves the face of the Democratic Party?

The monsters have already been created, and their creators are either out of office now or have no power to control them anymore. Keep in mind that House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) begged his members not to act like complete idiots during Trump's speech. Yet, they didn't even let the president make it through his first paragraph before they tried to shut the entire event down, leading to the Sergeant at Arms having to get involved to restore order.

Democrats are stuck with these people. They run the show. They are the faces of the party. There will be no pivot.

Quote:Anyone who thought that Congressional Democrats couldn't possibly humiliate themselves any further this week after the shameless displays and stunts put on before and during President Donald Trump's joint Congressional address Tuesday was sadly mistaken.

As we reported, Democrats upped their cringe game big time on Thursday with the release of a bizarre "choose your fighter" video that featured, as my RedState colleague Bonchie described it, "an all-female cast of congressional Democrats and one 'Bento Box Queen' [who all] can be seen mimicking a video game's 'player selection' screen, bobbing up and down, holding their fists up."

Woke Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) - the latter of whom had another unfortunate "music" video she did on the day of Trump's speech - were among the female Democrats who were in the clip.

The "choose your fighter" antics came on the heels of the revelation from Wednesday of the embarrassing scripted videos put out by several Democrats who all said the exact same thing in individually filmed clips, as we reported.

After catching wind of the "choose your fighter" campaign, the Trump White House put out their own video where they "fixed" the Democrat clip with actual fighters like Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and other members of his administration.

Watch:

There was also this one, originally posted by Vance and also shared by RedState alumna Kira Davis on the Twitter/X machine and which shows Vance alongside Defense Sec. Pete Hegseth and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard as they prepared to head to the southern border on Thursday:

There was also this: a fighter image for the ages and one that so many of us won't soon forget:

And let's not forget the iconic quote that goes along with it, one that Trump often repeats as he did during his Tuesday address:

Still gives me goosebumps every time I watch it. America is indeed back, y'all. She's back.
