The 2020 campaign season seems like it’s already been going on forever. We’ve been treated to a slew of videos from Democratic 2020 candidates giving us an alleged “window” into their private lives.

From Beto O’Rourke visiting the dentist to Elizabeth Warren trying to appear down to earth with a beer, the videos can almost always be summarized up in one word: cringe.

But one politician who seems to have gotten the concept of a personal video down right is Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) and it’s really funny.

Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt is renown for his charitable efforts to help people, in addition to his play. He posted a video saying he spoke with a friend about some of the negative things about social media. Watt said he decided he wanted to use social media to do something positive, to have positive interaction with the fans. So he invited people to text him and he’d see if he could text them back.

Text me.

For fans, that’s a pretty cool idea.

As Texan Dan Crenshaw thought.

So he tried to text him. But you know it wasn’t really that important to him for JJ Watt to text him back.

.@JJWatt said text him. So I did. This is what happened: pic.twitter.com/CvRCV3Fhgk

Now that’s hilarious. Even Verizon loved it.

This dedication is second to none 😂

And Watt has responded back to people’s texts.

Responded to a couple hundred texts already, but the inbox is currently sitting at 25,000+ 😂😂😂

I’m gonna continue to try it out to see how it goes and see if you guys like it as a more direct way to interact.

One thing I can say is I truly appreciate all the kind words. 🙏🏼

I can confirm @JJWatt is responding to some of these. I just saw it with my own eyes — and heard an 'Oh my God!' scream — here in the newsroom. #khou11 https://t.co/oW6RnOJcQu

He even texted back a student from Ohio.

This kid better get 100% on that final. 😂 pic.twitter.com/4b2c88iztx

But so far, no luck for Crenshaw.

People have even interceded on his behalf, pleading his case.

JJ how could you ghost Dan “I have a Trident eyeball” Crenshaw?

— Emmanuel Can’t (@DiaperFire) November 23, 2019

Omg, I absolutely love this and goodness JJ please text Dan! We all can’t wait to see his reaction when you do text him!! Thank you for this much needed smile!

But so far, no luck. We’ll update if we hear.

So JJ, what about it? Are you going to leave Dan hanging?
