Donald Trump’s provocative first TV ad raises the temperature of GOP race
Washington Post ^

Posted on 01/03/2016 7:09:05 PM PST by springwater13

Donald Trump's ad begins with a shot of President Obama and Hillary Clinton. Then comes a U.S. battleship launching a cruise-missile strike. From there it moves swiftly through an explosive montage: The suspects in the recent California terrorist attack. Shadowy figures racing across the U.S.-Mexico border. Islamic State militants.

The narrator, a deep-voiced man, speaks ominously: "That's why he's calling for a temporary shutdown of Muslims entering the United States, until we can figure out what's going on. He'll quickly cut the head off ISIS and take their oil. And he'll stop illegal immigration by building a wall on our southern border that Mexico will pay for."

The spot closes with the image of Trump thundering at one of his rallies, "We will make America great again!"

The Republican presidential candidate’s long-awaited and hotly anticipated first ad, which was shared exclusively with The Washington Post, is set to launch Monday as part of a series that will air in the final month before the Iowa caucuses. Trump has vowed to spend at least $2 million a week on the ads — an amount that will be amplified by the countless times they are likely to be played on cable news and across social media.

He is Donal J Trump and he is here to stay for 8 full years with a pen and HIS phone and is won’t be pretty for the socialists and the MSM. In fact, it will be very sad for them.

No it doesn’t. It flies in the face of Globalists and New World Order socialists and the under educated, Poor thinkers and people that just want to make stuff up.

Think about that next time you drive by an Indian reservation, or perhaps visit Puerto Rico, The Texas border at the Rio Grand River, Philippines, Fuji, Marshal Island, Hawaii.

Go read your history. The war of 1812, the Mexican American war, the Spanish American war.

Must see. (Warning: some scenes in this video may cause sudden nausea. Be prepared to pause the video, and exit the room, to your nearest barf station.)

Look, it’s one thing for Trump to have his Cliff Claven moments during one of his rambling hour-long speeches, but when he puts it in a ad, that’s notching it up toward making it official foreign/defense policy should he become president.

Stuff like that will do nothing but exacerbate our poor standing in the world after Obama. It will make a pariah out of us.

But, I can see from this thread that among his supporters, he can say virtually anything at all, and have it defended.

I’m out of here.

Good night.

Trump can make it happen.

Why? Because he says so?

If we were really a nation of plunderers, we could have easily plundered practically the whole world, a couple of times over.

If you think that’s our history, we don’t have anything left to talk about.

Good night.

If nothing else has, these videos coming out should cause Cruz supporters to stop and think, really think about their candidate. He is not as he seems.

Re:”since I am a Cruz firster, I hope he picks Ted as his vp “

I call BS
If you support Cruz first, why do you have the hots for Trump when there has not been a single ballot cast in ANY primary?
Nice try.
Now go home boy.
