This new Obamacare support ad challenges President Donald Trump to 'act like' a legitimate president
CNBC ^ | Feb. 6, 2017 | Dan Mangan

Posted on 02/06/2017 1:48:36 PM PST by Innovative

A new TV ad featuring a disabled military veteran blasts President Donald Trump for seeking to repeal Obamacare and for imposing a travel ban that primarily affects Muslims. "You want to be a legitimate president, sir? Then act like one," says the veteran, who according to the ad's sponsor is a Marine who lost a leg while on patrol in Afghanistan. The ad aired for the first time Monday on MSNBC's show "Morning Joe" — which Trump is known to avidly watch — and was produced by the progressive veterans group VoteVets.

It lasts just 30 seconds. But in that half minute, the ad lands a series of punches at sore spots of Trump's ego, all delivered by a weightlifting unidentified veteran.

There is no low to which the Dems aren't willing to sink.

I bet the "veteran" in the ad is NOT a real veteran.

I imagine most members in this “veterans group” are commie lib, associate members who have never put on a uniform. JMO.

Even as bad as the VA has been with Obama, this marine would get better care through the VA and AFAA than through Obamacare...

Why did the “veteran” bring up 0bamacare? If he is a veteran, then he uses the VA and not 0bamacare.

The SEIU sponsored ads against Trump, complaining that there is no replacement for Obamacare, are running nonstop here in AZ. Lying that people will not be able to get healthcare, or it will be lots more expensive. Remind me, who was it that decreed that TV ads of a political nature, didn’t have to be true?

Obama foists a 100% proof positive forged birth certificate to evidence a "natural born" citizenship ... and this idiot challenges Trump to be a "legitimate" President? It's Bizarro World. You can't fix stupid. You can only push it out of the way and urge it not to hurt itself or anyone else.

Fake ads. Like the Planned genocidal Parenthood bitching about how Pro Lifers want to stop them from curing cancer with all their pre natal care and mamograms none of them give.

Not everyone who has served in the United States Armed Forces is a decent,honorable,respectable person.One guy who falls into that category just got a Presidential commutation a couple of weeks ago.

Wasn't it something like 35 years he got at court martial?

Dear Progressives: Treat him like a legitimate President. You have not given a single moment of respect or congratulations. You call for him to be impeached, killed, mocked and you attack people who you suspect support him as well as threaten anyone who is even civil, who would perform at the inauguration. You mock and boycott his family, sue him, block his cabinet. So, why should he do ANYTHING you ask?

USAA member for the past 21 years (since they started allowing enlisted to be USAA members).

Never realized USAA offered health insurance of any kind. When did that start?

Interesting... VoteVets only has about 1 actual veteran per 20 members. They claim to bipartisan, yet only donate to Democrats.
