Dem Senators release identical, scripted anti-Trump videos ahead of speech

The lawmakers all released the videos on Tuesday, with Schumer, Warren, and Booker using the exact same scripts and others doing the same with similar videos.

A list of the senators who released the video includes Sens. Angela Alsobrooks, Tammy Baldwin, Richard Blumenthal, Coery Booker, Maria Cantwell, Chris Coons, Tammy Duckworth, Dick Durbin, Kristen Gillibrand, Mazie Hirono, Tim Kaine, Mark Kelly, Andy Kim, Ben Ray Lujan, Ed Markey, Jeff Merkley, Alex Padilla, Gary Peters, Brian Schatz, Chuck Schumer, Chris Van Hollen, Mark Warner, Elizabeth Warren, and Sheldon Whitehouse.

Each started with a clip of Trump saying that on "day one" he would bring down prices for American consumers, and then each lawmaker interjected saying, "Sh*t it ain't true."

Each then said that "prices are not down, they're up” and claimed that “inflation is getting worse, not better." They then cited the price of eggs as well as other goods as evidence of high inflation.

The lawmakers cited the pardoning of January 6 defendants, where most also played a clip of the riot happening at the Capitol in 2021. The lawmakers, despite having their own respective communications staff, decided to put out a near identical message and video.

"He's letting Elon Musk take a chainsaw to government programs," some said, varying slightly in the script. Most all then made the point that Musk has "access to Americans' most sensitive data" such as social security numbers, health records, and others.

As each spoke about the "chainsaw" that Musk has been taking to government programs, and the majority used a clip of Argentina President Javier Milei gifting Musk a chainsaw at CPAC last month.

The majority of the lawmakers then spoke to an article showing that the Trump administration is firing "thousands of federal workers." They then claimed that Musk has been working to freeze funding for veterans, education workers, as well as cancer research.

Each ended with a similar claim that under the Trump administration "families lose" and "billionaires win."
