Democrats love staging photos. You can always count on them to do performative things that lack any real substance. They’re all about theatrics. The best way to counteract this silly strategy is to mock it. Which is what X users did when Democrat Rep Jimmy Gomez of California staged a 'crying' pic on the Capitol steps after the BBB was passed by Republicans.
Oh, look how devastated he is! (READ)
This is Rep. Jimmy Gomez.

Jimmy claims to be absolutely “crushed by the weight of what the Republicans did and the millions of people who will be impacted” by the BBB.
Please… PLEASE photoshop this to make me laugh. I’m pregnant and you have to do as I say. Thank you. pic.twitter.com/biWGaXaDkq
And make her (and us) laugh, they did!
The first is a riff on AOC crying near the southern border outside a mostly empty parking lot.

Both of them fake af!
They sure are.
Looks like Gomez is getting a behind-the-scenes look at Alligator Alcatraz.

This is amazing. 😂

Extra kudos for incorporating AOC.
We all know how much the Democrat Party favors illegal aliens over American citizens; these riffs seem appropriate.

That line is exiting the U.S.
Here’s one where he’s taking advantage of all the Democrat tears flowing from Congress on Thursday.
Riding the waves and tubing on all those tears...Glorious. pic.twitter.com/4VmBxK14Bk

Literally crying a river!
These two are pretty whimsical.

Oops, that might cause real tears instead of Gomez's faked ones!
One poster supposes that Gomez was just frustrated with Hakeem Jeffries' marathon filibuster.

Nah that was just him taking a break during the 8 hour Dollar Store Obama’s speech 😂😂

Jeffries finally ended and accomplished nothing.
Here’s the best of the rest.
