It has been seven years since Donald Trump stared directly at the solar eclipse without wearing protective glasses.
Now he is jumping on the sky-gazing bandwagon again with a campaign video comparing the election to the solar event.
As millions across the country prepare to watch the moon blocking out the sun, Trump released a clip of a silhouette of his head moving across the sky.
The video begins with the phrase 'the most important moment in human history is taking place in 2024' hovering over an image of the sun.
With the 2001: A Space Odyssey theme playing in the background, the video then flicks to photos of crowds gathered to watch the eclipse with their glasses on.
The hoards of people start to cheer as Trump's head slowly moves closer to the sun and the U.S. gets darker.

A half a second (if that long) glimpse hardly qualifies as a stare.
It's great!
Love it!
or go on a duck hunt with Dick Cheney.
LOL. Troll King Trump.
Meanwhile Biden is coughing and mumbling and stumbling- yelling about your tax dollars going to student loan forgiveness.
Having a cocktail at the local watering hole garnered me 4 more cocktails from the folks I gave m glasses to after Id seen enough. Calling that a win!
Yep. Effective advertising is based on repeated impressions. Why billboards work. They’re spreading the meme into the national subconscious ... gratis.
stared at the sky without glasses
Just like Superman does
best example of billboard memes were the burma shave billboards on rt 66 back before interstate 40 across the southwest.
My dad was in the army. we drove back and forth between bases on the east coast and west coast in the 1950’s-60’s. those burma shave mile markers came up regularly.
I never shaved with burma shave but the bill boards were memorable.
Some series of those signs still exist along what’s left of historic Rt. 66 in States like Oklahoma and northern Arizona. When we retraced it back in 2017 we encountered several foreign tourists doing the same thing. No airport/airline descents into Travel Hell, and well worth the time spent.
