Michigan Dem hopeful twerks to promote congressional campaign

A Democrat congressional candidate is looking to get attention online, and is willing twerk in order to get noticed. Shelby Campbell, a 32-year-old single mom running for Congress in Michigan, has posted a number of unhinged TikTok videos to her campaign page that show her twerking as well as posing in front of banners that say "p*ssy power."

Clips of the Democrat candidate have been viewed millions of times and blown up in recent days, and she is getting slammed for it online. One video that was posted online of her from Libs of TikTok showed the candidate replying to the comment "looks like you need more ozempic" and twerking for the video as music played in the background.

In response to the videos getting posted, Campbell stated, "Omg I love you guys thank you keep the publicity going," in a post to X. Other videos showed her twerking on her kitchen counter in response to other comments from her TikTok page.

In the video she stated, “I am an ethical person. I am a classy b*tch, am I not?”

At the same time as her twerking videos have been going viral, another video surfaced of Campbell saying that "white ladies" have become the "enemy to the white man."

One particularly grotesque video showed her squatting over a camera while wearing a pair of loose shorts before she picked up the camera and said, "I am a c*nt, great. But would you know a cl*t if you saw one?"

Campbell is a law student and is running against Rep. Shri Thanedar in the primary with a crowd of other candidates. The more left-wing of the party is hoping to oust Thanedar, who is a wealthy executive and has been representing the district since 2021.

Social media users slammed the videos, X account "I Meme Therefore I Am" posted, "She is a mother of two boys and chose to lip-sync and twerk as part of her campaign strategy. For bedroom decor, she used stoner-style flags, one reading 'Pussy Power' and the other featuring a marijuana leaf and a 'sexual' sign."

User Mario Nawfal wrote in a post that had one of the videos attached,"Democrats are not sending their best."
