The video ad is pretty good. I bet there are people who think the tomatoes aren't enough.

If that ad is not successful at supporting the candidate, then we know the election is fixed. Kick ass ad!

Libs cannot meme, therefore they cannot make successful AI generated ads. Therefore AI will be censored because it’s mean and racissss and you know what else, AI “spreads disinformation!”

Because to effectively meme, there has to be an element of truth to it.

And as El Rush-Bo often says, Liberals and Leftists have no sense of humor.

I’d say Pratt hooked up with some special effects Hollywood folks who may have lost their homes in the Palisades Fires.

There were some special effects magic in that video that came from folk who are at the top of their profession.

This is awesome. It would be incredible to see Pratt win.

I can soon see leftists saying that throwing tomatoes is unacceptable Jan 6th level political violence worse than the Civil War.
