It’s based on Lofi Girl which is a France-based YouTube phenomenon. It’s a never ending video stream that features relaxing music with an anime girl wearing headphones while studying at a desk. Its main audience is high school and college students.

Check it out. (WATCH)

You don't have to be in school to enjoy the mellow tunes.

This video channel idea may seem unorthodox or even silly to older voters but many on X are giving Trump’s comms team kudos for reaching out to younger voters. Here’s what they have to say.

Democrats are not adapting well to the digital age.

Barron Trump did advise his father on the 2024 presidential campaign. Many credit him with getting his father to sit down with Joe Rogan, Theo Von, and other podcasters to reach young voters. It's not hard to imagine him saying, ‘Hey Dad, I’ve got a new idea for you. Have you ever heard of Lofi Girl?’
