Johnson ran vs Goldwater...... This current ad is more effective, IMO.

Almost as good was this one, with a similar message, from the Mondale Ferraro campaign. It didn't have much effect on the '84 election, of course; but I've always liked it.

That hits the right place in the right people (pun intended). Krauthammer in there with O'Reilly couldn't have finished it off better.

Is that part of the swing state ad buy? Man oh man.

To think, this is the candidate favored by people who I call friends. I know one of them is still working feverishly to get him elected. Those close to him don't agree so strongly, but will probably vote for Drumpf no matter what.

My first post...how exciting!

Really powerful stuff there, the long camera shot with tRump sitting on the right, and the whole left side of the screen is dark and he looks like he is hearing voices in his head, which he probably is. Excellent ad.

Trump is suffering from a personality disorder; he's not schizophrenic.

Congrats on your first post! I remember how terrified and intimidated I was - posting here for the first time, myself.

These are amazing times. And, fortunately, we have an amazing candidate.

Like he's going to say that it's outrageous that people think that Don the Con isn't fit to be POTUS.

Trump is running a new ad where he claims that she announced "we are going to raise taxes on the middle class." She actually says "we aren't" but the audio is tough to make out. The sentences she spoke beforehand make it clear what she was saying, but of course Trump cut those out.

Says he's suggested using nuclear weapon against our Western European allies. I don't think that's true. Trump has suggested not backing up our NATO allies though.
