Social media is erupting over a viral video of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson showing off his dance moves, with the clip quickly spreading across X as users call the performance “embarrassing.”<\/p>\n

The clip, circulating on X this week, shows Johnson dancing to “Hideaway” by Kiesza alongside a group on a rooftop, prompting conservative commentators to call out the mayor for seemingly neglecting the city\u2019s crime problem.<\/p>\n

Johnson\u2019s campaign confirmed to Fox News Digital that he participated in the video but did not provide details about when it was filmed. The video circulated on X over the same weekend that Johnson announced Sunday that he would seek a second term.<\/p>\n

“What the actual F?,” asked Fox News contributor Joe Concha<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“1,320 people shot in Chicago in 2026 so far,” wrote popular X account End Wokeness,<\/a> sharing the video.<\/p>\n

“Chicago does not need another influencer with a title,” wrote popular X account True Patriot Voice<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“23% approval rating. 40 people shot per week. Thugs doing \u2018street takeovers<\/a>\u2019 every week. Businesses fleeing,” said conservative commentator Benny Johnson.<\/a><\/p>\n

“Pathetic,” said New York Post contributor Miranda Devine.<\/p>\n

“Embarrassing and pathetic,” said another user.<\/p>\n

“Brandon Johnson should be impeached for making this video,” said Ambassador Nick Adams,<\/a> special presidential envoy for American tourism, exceptionalism and values.<\/p>\n

“Keep voting failures in Chicagoans,” said Kaltbaum Capital President Gary Kaltbaum<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Johnson was first elected as the Windy City\u2019s mayor in 2023 and announced he will be seeking a second term<\/a> over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Chicago has long struggled with crime, and Chicago Police Department data through June 26 showed shootings up about 3% from the same period last year and motor-vehicle thefts up 10%. Preliminary Cook County Medical Examiner data showed 219 homicides through June 30, compared with 208 during the first half of 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
