Republican presidential front runner Donald Trump rolled out his not-so-secret weapon on Monday, releasing a 60-second radio advertisement featuring his daughter, Ivanka Trump.
"When I was a young girl, my father, Donald Trump, always told me I could do anything that I set my mind to if I coupled vision with determination and hard work," Ivanka says during the spot. "My father is a man who is deeply grounded in tradition. He raised my siblings and me to work hard and strive for excellence in all we do. He taught us to inspire and to gain respect in life and in business you have to earn it."
Ivanka then highlights the times she witnessed her father making deals, that looked impossible at the time, and concludes: "As president my father will keep his word. He'll never quit fighting for this country and its future and he will make America great again."
The Trump campaign said it would release the spot in both Iowa and New Hampshire.
"My family has been so supportive of me and my candidacy and I am so proud of Ivanka. She is a terrific person, a devoted mother and an exceptional entrepreneur. Ivanka is doing a fantastic job running my company, alongside her brothers, and is building many of my biggest jobs. It is so important to have the support of all of my children and I'm really proud of this ad," Mr. Trump said in a statement.

It’s 12:30 here my time, almost time for lunch. So far I’ve managed not to engage with Cruz supporters. My resolution for today was not to respond to any of their stupid lies or insults.
I did write a letter to my Secretary of State asking why Cruz was even on our ballot. ;)
Good idea!
I’m hoping on the rally thread they will just be ignored. You know, kind of like how you would ignore a child throwing a temper tantrum.
:)
Ok. Sorry to tick you off. You convinced me.
Thank you so much.
No need to be sorry, and I’m not exactly ticked off at you or anyone else. You are entitled to your opinion as much as anyone else on this forum.
Just trying to be clear on what I meant.
What really pisses me off, Trump, supposedly an anti-establishment candidate attacking another great anti-establishment candidate and appears to only help the establishment. What gives with Trump attacking Cruz in this way? How in sam hell could this help our cause?
Indeed. Primary season at FR is not for the faint of heart. Words of wisdom from my own experience:
- Give as good as you get.
- Keep it about the issues. Leave the personal insults out of it.
- Ignore the hypersentive folks. It’s easy to get caught up in it. We’ve all been there and done that.
- If you haven’t been flamed by FReepers, you ain’t livin’.
- If you mess up, you’ll get thumped by the mods. It only stings for a little bit. (Ask gunner. He’ll tell ya.) They’re very tolerant and very forgiving.
- Jim’s policy of light-hand-on-the-tiller-because-freepers-will-work-it-out is a good thing. You’ll come to appreciate and admire it. True story.
I am with poster #88.... So much rides on this year for elections. We absolutely cannot have Hillary the crook or Bernie the socialist kill what remains of a once great nation.
Republicans, conservatives, libertarians, and whoever else claims to have any patriotism left needs to do the best for America and get behind which ever nominee wins this summer. I was worried that at one time the Gope had selected Je b Bush, but thanks to Trump and 14 other candidates, Jeb is no longer a viable candidate.
So, vote for your guy in the primary, but be a grownup when it comes to voting for America! By the way, I didn’t see any democrats lining up to give to our Vets... Isn’t it about time we stop punishing our men and women in uniform by electing Democrats who hate our military. After all, they put their lives on the line for us....
Anyone who sits home and doesn’t vote hurts them more the rest of us!
Each of his kids are big time donors to every Liberal Democrat cause that comes along, just like their Dad. Very, very impressive.
