Jeb Bush's new political ad rips Donald Trump and gushes about the bright future of America but incredibly, the spot uses footage shot Asia and the United Kingdom, Politico reports.
The embarrassing disclosure couldn't come at a worse time for Bush, who political insiders say must make a major splash in Wednesday's GOP presidential debate on CNN if he hopes to save his sinking poll numbers.
The ad in question produced by the former Florida governor's super PAC "Right to Rise" trashes Bush's nemesis Donald Trump with ominous clips of the billionaire developer and says he's in a "very dark place."
Then the sun is seen rising over a field with the words, "choose the brighter path," and Bush jumps in, saying: "If we get a few big things right, we can make lives better for millions of people in this nation where every life matters and everyone has the right to rise."
But it turns out the imagery has nothing to do with the United States.
"The sun is rising over a field in Cornwall, England a clip available for between $19 and $79 on Shutterstock," Politico says.

I have seen bamboo scaffolding...
In Korea
In Vietnam
Both, of course, are counties in upstate New York. /sarc
Was it narrated in Spanish and subtitle in English?
Jeb doesn’t have much respect for Americans... that’s what the ad shows... He’s playing us for fools.
Well the first part of it looks like an ad FOR Trump. Everything Trump is saying that the ad says is wrong is why people like him.
A really dumb ad in more ways than one. Just shows that the Jeb people don’t get it at all.
All it needed was a ‘Hecho in Mexico’ blurb at the bottom.
ROTFL!!
What a dippenheimer!!!
All those think Mitt is your answer
Remember Sarah Palin got more votes than Mitt did in 2008.
Why not in Mexico?
Nobody is that stupid. These ad men must be Democrat plants.
And out of touch. Trump has him nailed: low energy, absentee manager.
What surprises me isn’t that someone made the mistake but that someone caught it.
Jeb, This IS NOT the politician we are looking for...Jeb, This IS NOT the politician we are looking for ...
GW Bush: That's the way Pop wanted it.
Fredo Bush: It ain't the way I wanted it! I can handle campaigns!
I'm smart! Not like everybody says... like dumb, dull, lifeless, spineless, rudderless pandering ...
I'm smart and I want respect! I want votes!Fredo Bush: Every time I put my name in the primary I said a Hail Mary, and every time I said a Hail Mary I caught 7% almost 8%.
Hmmmm ..?? I learned in grammar school:
CHEATERS NEVER PROSPER ..!!!!!
Jeb really is stupid, as are his handlers.
First the tee shirt (which was really dumb), now this. SMH
“You're a peon”.....
I saw one of Jeb’s first attack ads being discussed on another site. The commenters were saying Jeb’s attack ad made them like Trump. LOL
The gift that keeps on giving...Jeb! LOL
This guy (Bush) has got to be from some other planet or just totally incompetent. Yes, his staff is probably responsible for this little error and that black hand error, but still, people will catch this. He is ultimately responsible for any adds content.
Then this clown goes around speaking in Spanish pouring salt into the wounds of the multitudes that disfavor illegal immigration.
This is the best the GOPe can come up with?? This is their guy?
Since this guy does not have brains or a personality, it’s gotta be because he can be easily manipulated by the powers that be.
Imagine, the election boiling down to two clowns, this one and Joe Biden. Practically no one would turn out to vote.
