The Partido Popular has decided to reuse in this electoral campaign the slip made by its leader, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, in Congress, with the goal of attracting the younger electorate through social media ahead of the general elections on November 29.
Almost a year ago, during a Government control session in the Congress of Deputies and coinciding with the premiere of the series "Anatomy of an Instant", Feijóo went after Pedro Sánchez, stating that one day a television fiction would be filmed about his time in the Moncloa. As he said then, the series "would be titled 'Anotop at...".
That misstep by the PP president unleashed laughter from the Socialist bench and immediately turned into a widely shared meme on social media. Feijóo's team later clarified that the title his leader intended to mention in the lower house was "Anatomy of a Pretender".
In this context, the Partido Popular —which has been developing a very aggressive strategy with a casual tone on its digital profiles for several weeks— has chosen to rescue Feijóo's famous slip in order to turn it around and use it to its advantage, with the aim of gaining support among young voters coinciding with the official start of the campaign.
Thus, Nuevas Generaciones del PP has published on its "X" account an image of Feijóo generated with Artificial Intelligence in which he appears as a Barça player celebrating a goal. "What do you think of this?". "What a farmeo of aura," the message says, using an expression common among Generation Z that has become popular among younger people.
The PP strengthens its image on TikTok with Feijóo
Meanwhile, the PP's TikTok account has modified its profile picture to include an image of the leader of the Partido Popular characterized as the late basketball player Kobe Bryant, the legendary star of the Los Angeles Lakers.
In addition, the Partido Popular itself has tonight shared on its "X" account a video in which Feijóo is seen inside the car, smiling while he looks at the images created with Artificial Intelligence based on the slip "Anotop at". "First reactions," the party wrote in the message that accompanies the recording.
