This ad would land a little harder if Trump didn’t spend so much time talking about how he and President Xi “love each other” so much

Reposted from Matt Novak

Trump just posted a new extremely racist ad to Truth Social.

I know the Willie Horton ad from 1988 is held up as the most racist political ad of the past 50 years, but I really think Trump's ads are so extreme they make the Horton ad look tame.

Fun fact: the little racist "Chinese music" riff they used here was written by a Jewish guy, Sol Bloom, for the 1893 Chicago World's Fair...

I can’t wait to see the ads the dems put up to counter this. Delicious. 💙👍🏼🍿

It appears that Trump is still listening to the mole in his campaign. Good job, mole!💙👍🏼🍿

Also, we're really to "Tim Walz has stepped foot in the world's second largest economy multiple times - isn't that SUSPICIOUS?!" part of inane campaign messaging?

Ah well, anyway.

I know this isn’t the point but why do they keep using ai instead of photoshop for Kamala because it looks nothing like her

gjwalk.bsky.social•256 days ago

Surprised I didn't hear the word "oriental" with that music.

xsccceo.bsky.social•256 days ago

Seriously, do ads like this actually change people's minds? It looks like amateur hour at the Fuhrer bunker.

degolierthomas.bsky.social•256 days ago

I uh… what did I just see

kevinmkruse.bsky.social•256 days ago

It’s like Mickey Rooney’s racist performance in Breakfast at Tiffany’s went into ad making

degolierthomas.bsky.social•256 days ago

Do they think the CCP celebrates tianemen square???? They try to forget it happened and erase mentions of it

degolierthomas.bsky.social•256 days ago

The ccp tries to forget it happened that is…

Also holy racist dated graphics Batman

Don’t sleep on the musical choices either

When people ask me to comment on dog whistles now I just sigh.

degolierthomas.bsky.social•256 days ago

They just got a damn bullhorn instead

Isn't Trump already on the record that Tianneman Square was good actually?

Also that time it was revealed he had a Chinese bank account

wemustrepeat.bsky.social•256 days ago

My mind just - I am like- just WOWWW that’s something - is that something g like what they commonly sell their audience? Because that was so bad, and so wow

kevinmkruse.bsky.social•256 days ago

And also if Trump hadn’t praised the CCP for its brutal handling of the Tiananmen Square protests.

Seems worse than getting married on the anniversary of it?

Who can forget all the love and support for a free and democratic Hong Kong?

We were always at war with Oceania.

bschorr.bsky.social•256 days ago

In my opinion, a disappointing percentage of Trump's base agree with that assessment of Tiananmen and wish our government would do the same every time students and liberals protest.

Despite their professed love of the Constitution.

theelectricmonk.bsky.social•256 days ago

I believe Trump and Melania were married on the 100th anniversary of Bloody Sunday in Russia, and the 32nd anniversary of the Roe v Wade decision. Does this have any significance? No? Ah, well.

illimij.bsky.social•256 days ago

That kind of praise puts the CCP in an awkward position: "thank you, we agree we handled the thing that didn't happen very well."

changeitlater.bsky.social•255 days ago

Killing students shows strength?! Jesus fucking christ I hate that motherfucker

kevinmkruse.bsky.social•256 days ago

That said, I’m glad they confirmed which one of the ticket is the top and (SIGNAL LOSS)

josephusbrown.bsky.social•256 days ago

Lmao I fucking choked on my lunch watching that video when I got to that part

Wait are cheap goods now bad? I thought that was like their whole thing. They liked cheap goods. They don't like that the goods are more expensive now. I thought that was like a huge thing.
