Hillary Clinton's super-PAC unveiled a new TV spot this week that brings to the surface Donald Trump's mocking of a disabled reporter a few months ago, Politico reported.
Though Trump has denied mocking the New York Times' Serge Kovaleski, Priorities USA, Clinton's super-PAC, is jumping on an opportunity it thinks will resonate with voters.
The message: Trump "mocked someone with a disability," reports the New York Times.
"Women are pigs and slobs, Mexicans are thugs and criminals, and the disabled deserve to be targets of mocking and derision," Priorities USA spokesman Justin Barasky said in a statement to Politico. "The common thread among all of (the ads) is that if you're not Donald Trump, he’s probably mocked and ridiculed you and he has no intention of fighting for you."
The spot, which debuted Monday, is part of a $20 million ad campaign that will run for six weeks in Ohio, Virginia, Florida, New Hampshire, Iowa, Colorado, and Nevada, Politico reported.
The media in this country support Democrats not only because they share the same warped value system, but the Dems put the media in lofty positions where they can serve as kingmakers, making and breaking political careers, rather than being unbiased, objective observers of the political process.
Apparently Hell’s strategy is a replay, one by one, of every attack the GOPe crew launched on Trump during the primaries.
With the way the parents of the disabled girl behaved in the ad, they think Trump did something worse than killing someone.
Is there ANY ads coming from our side?
These guys are spending 20 million. Is the only thing coming from our side are Romney interviews?
With the somewhat religiously-tinged feel to this ad, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was borrowed from Jeb.
What libhole candidate wants a religious tone to his or her ad? Not the hildebeast.
The ad was interesting because they really played the religious tone strongly during the description of the disabled daughter, so I was surprised that it turned out to be a pro-libhole. Otherwise, as you sarcastically surmised, that poor little disabled gal — who is the daughter of some libholes — was a prime candidate for an abortion.
Trump should run an ad for sHrillery mocking dogs. ;)
But if he mocked the reporter, I couldn't tell for sure what that was about, it wasn't nice.
I wish he would tone it down with the namecalling. Pocahontas Fauxahontas, tell what she did but people who haven't followed things who are more than you think, even smart people, are not going to know why he is making fun of her. People will think you are mocking Native Americans.
I'm glad you called out Obama, Crooked Hillary will get old. My mom used to say crooked as a dog's hind leg.
And I don't like the names the libs call you either. Namecalling is for JV when you can't think of anything intelligent to say. Here on FR people let their hair down, but out on the web, when they start with the Rethuglicans and name calling, it tells me they don't have anything worth reading and I skip over it.
I do understand about that judge. If he releases video of your deposition, file a complaint with the state bar. Good luck with that in CA. Maybe it would be considered a matter of public record.
Just found the Jeb ad:
Total rip off. The Jeb ad is actually much better. A father talks about his son with a disability, etc.
Hillary is getting ripped off by her consultants. It’s $20 million down the drain.
Of course the ad is a lie. Trump didn’t know the reporter.
$20 million down the crapper for a 6-week ad campaign nobody will remember in 7 weeks. Smooth move, RATS,
I think the truth will out, before long.
Trump probably has done more private kindnesses to the handicapped than he has ever given grief to them on account of their oddnesses.
Trump once jibed at the mannerisms of a reporter who suffered from a malady that apparently caused attempts at normal motion to result in the mannerisms. This is being blown up way, way beyond its sphere of importance.
One thing though, Trump is not going to let himself be shamed out of the public sphere, and these fools are unwise to even try that.
Most of the "undecideds" don't begin to consider their vote until maybe a month out. No sense pi$$ing away good ad money too early. A blitz starting about a month out will be just fine.
Nothing but Trump attack ads here in Florida ... he better get it in gear pretty quickly. Watched his rally in Tampa today....not his best. Still fighting Jeb Bush,,,enough already...attack Clinton all day every day.
If you want to see how Trump treats the disabled, WATCH THIS!!!!!

Yes if it was unfair to jibe at the mannerisms in ignorance, certainly it is also unfair to jibe at Trump in ignorance.
These folks might benefit to look up the meaning of the word hypocrisy.
And I just betcha. Someone is going to come out with an ad showing Trump helping the weak and handicapped, and the Clintonites will be left looking like the fools they are.
PLEASE EVERYONE...Watch the video I posted above!!!!!!
Seems to be a good counter example, and there are doubtless many more... Trump will be able to get them to eat their words if he wants.
I just posted a GREAT one...Trump didn’t want it out, I believe because he did not want his kindness and generousity made public....
And you know about caring about the disabled?
I think about FDR. Back then, such advocacy wasn’t such an “in” thing among Democrats. Only a few people knew he was wheelchair bound, the secret was kept so well. He threw away a chance to do a broad advocacy because he adored the power politics. Was that being considerate to the disabled? Especially given how the Nazis were acting towards them at the time?
‘Good luck; anti-Trump super PACs beat that dead horse for months and months in their television commercials, and no one cared.’
This.
Americans are facing life and death issues in terms of economy, border security and terrorism. Trump said we don’t have time for Political Correctness—and the voters have concurred.
