A TikTok video shows a young woman sitting in the driver’s seat of a car, appearing to be in tears, as she says she is going through a hard time. The video, posted by a creator who appears to use the handle @gabbymckenzi, has drawn a large number of comments from viewers who said the message motivated them.
In the video, the woman looks directly at the camera. On-screen text reads, “Dont let Trump outlive you.” Her voice trembles as she speaks, and her eyes appear to be wet with tears.
The video’s caption includes the hashtags #leftist and #democrat.
Video shows woman delivering emotional message from her car
The video shows a young woman with long, dark hair, wearing a white sweatshirt with a red collar and cuffs. She appears to be sitting in the driver’s seat of a car.
She begins speaking with a trembling voice, saying, “I’m going through it right now, and I just keep on telling myself I cannot let Donald Trump outlive me.” She brings her hands together in a gesture that appears to be pleading or determined, her eyes wide and watery.
She repeats the statement, saying, “I can’t let Trump outlive me.” Her expression then appears to shift from distress to something more resolute, though her eyes remain moist. The emotional weight of political videos like this one has surfaced elsewhere on TikTok, as a creator said she saw Angie Nixon fight back tears after Laura Loomer’s tweet.
She continues, saying, “We’re gonna stay right here, baby. We’re gonna keep pushing, ’cause I can’t let that old ugly motherf–ker outlive me.” She gestures with her hands as she speaks, and then appears to smile faintly, with an expression that seems to mix sadness and defiance.
She concludes by saying, “We’re gonna be okay,” while maintaining eye contact with the camera. Her expression appears to settle into a firm resolve.
Commenters say the video motivated them to keep going
The video appears to have prompted a wave of responses from viewers who said they connected with the message. Several commenters said the video gave them a reason to keep going. Viral political videos on TikTok and beyond keep drawing viewers in, such as an 80-year-old former Republican delegate who knocked on a Democratic candidate’s door to ask for her yard sign.
One commenter wrote, “As someone with cancer at 32 this is motivation.” Another said, “This just saved my life. I gotta keep going.”
Others expressed similar feelings. One person wrote, “I’m gonna black out when it happens,” while another said, “I’M 69. I’m hanging on for dear life.”
One commenter summed up their reaction with the phrase, “Literally living out of spite,” accompanied by an upside-down smiley face emoji. Another comment read, “damn straight Katy Perry.”
The video does not specify what the woman is going through. She does not explain her situation beyond saying she is “going through it right now.”
