The Democratic Party has provoked more widespread mockery online after dozens of House Democrats posted identical statements on social media.
Users were quick to highlight that around 50 House Democrats shared identical posts on X.
The Democrats were slammed as “actors reading a script,” with X boss Elon Musk weighing in on the “ridiculous political puppet show.”
The same social media post, posted by dozens of Democrat lawmakers on Thursday, read:
“House Democrats stand united for a four-week funding extension that stops harmful cuts, keeps government open, and allows Congress to reach a bipartisan funding agreement.
“I am ready to vote today, tomorrow, or Friday to pass a four-week extension.”
The message was posted by the House Democrats X account, as well as by various lawmakers such as “Squad” member Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL), “transgender” Congressman Sarah McBride (D-DE), and Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD).
The duplicate posts were highlighted in a video shared by the popular account EndWokeness.

In response to the identical posts shared by EndWokeness, Musk, who is leading cost-cutting efforts at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), wrote:
“You can see the ridiculous political puppet show for what it really is.
“They are just actors reading a script.”
“This is the 2025 version of ‘Live by the promise of the hashtag,'” Republican commentator Matt Whitlock said.
“Dems are so tacky.”
Fox News contributor Joe Concha labeled the Democrats the “cut-and-paste party.”
In a statement, Rep Debbie Dingell (D-MI), one of the Democrats who made the same social media post, said:
“House Democrats shared the same message because we are all unified and ready to keep the government open in a way that serves the American people.”
According to the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), at least 80 House Democrats posted matching messages about the shutdown on social media.
NRCC spokesperson Ben Petersen said:
“Democrats’ synchronized puppet show is embarrassing and doomed to fail.
“Vulnerable House Democrats abandoned their spines and marched like lemmings off a cliff voting for a government shutdown.”
The message comes as part of a new trend by Democrat lawmakers to post coordinated content to social media.
Senate Democrats also faced criticism earlier this year after identical videos were posted on social media ahead of President Donald Trump’s address to Congress.
The synchronized “S— That Ain’t True” mashup saw at least 22 Democrat Senators repeating the same statement in unison.
The Senate Democrats, including Sens. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), said in the video:
“Since day one of Donald Trump’s presidency, prices are up, not down. Inflation is getting worse, not better.
“Prices of groceries, gas, housing, rent, eggs — they’re all getting more expensive.
“Meanwhile, Donald Trump has done nothing to lower costs for you.”

Last week, 22 Senate Dems read the same script blaming Trump for egg prices…

Sen. Corey Booker (D-NJ) recently said the video had been created with the intention of reaching more people online.
“We’re trying to do more things as a caucus that break through,” the senator claimed.
“Clearly, this was very successful.”
Democrats were again recently mocked for a viral “choose your fighter parody.”
In the video, several congresswomen, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), were seen jumping up and down in a fighting position as if they were video game characters, along with their attributes.
The video was widely mocked, with social media users blasting the Democrats in the video as “cringey.”
Jeremy Hunt, a media fellow at the Hudson Institute, warned Democrats they are “lost at sea” with their messaging.
Hunt told Fox News’s “Outnumbered earlier this month:
“When you don’t have a message, and you have nothing positive to present to the American people, you have no plan, no strategy, you just start to think they are now just going off the reservation, constantly swearing, trying to howl at the moon, and trying to garner some type of resistance to what Trump is doing because they have no message.”
