tRump's reckless ad backfires, accidentally implicates him in thousands of deaths

tRump's latest campaign ad tried to blame Democrats for crimes committed by undocumented immigrants. But all it really does is cast him and other Republicans as being responsible for a host of horrific crimes.


A new ad released by Donald tRump hours after the Republican Party shut down the federal government has backfired, and given tRump and his party yet another rhetorical black eye.

Seeking to cast blame for the shutdown on Democrats — even though polling already shows the American people acknowledge reality and know Republicans are to blame — the ad and accompanying press release from tRump’s re-election campaign alleges that Democrats are “complicit” in “all murders by illegal immigrants.”

But to use the ad’s twisted logic, crimes committed by white supremacists, or other criminals like mass shooters, would thus be the fault of Republicans. - ShareBlue

Trump figures he will be out of office at some point in his first four years and he plans to take any money raised for his re-election and put it into his pocket and make a ton of money.
