Democrats Target Young Men Over Soaring Beer Prices
Briefly

Democrats bought five-figure digital ads to run on Instagram and YouTube targeting young men with messages that beer prices have risen under the Trump administration. One ad displays a can reading, 'This Labor Day, Republicans are making the price of beer soar.' Democrats launched an online price-checker, HouseRepublicanPriceHike.com, showing increases in staples such as bread and eggs. A site cart exercise of cookout staples showed a 14% price increase compared to 2022. A Republican strategist called the tactic smart and linked weekend conversations to costs like beef, imported beer tariffs, and back-to-school expenses. Trump posted a graphic claiming consumer spending and wages are up while inflation is low.
According to MSNBC, Democrats made a five-figure ad buy to run on Instagram and YouTube in 35 congressional districts. One ad in particular shows a can of beer with the words, This Labor Day, Republicans are making the price of beer soar. In addition to the ads, Democrats are promoting an online price-checker HouseRepublicanPriceHike.com showing an increase in everyday American staples like bread and eggs since Trump took office.
And I think it's smart not just because this is what everybody has been talking about. So many conversations this weekend will be about what the price was for beef, what the price was for, you know, if you got an imported Corona beer or something like that, that you paid a tariff on, and even back-to-school costs those are going to be a lot of the conversations that Americans are having throughout the country.
