Advertising
PRESIDENT TRUMP already has an impressive television advertising campaign. Its a pack of lies, naturally, but impressive, slick. The ad says, in a bold admission, that the president" isn't always polite". That's the understatement of the millennia. Its like saying that the KKK isn't always culturally diverse, or that an NFL linebacker isn't always gentle with someone in his arms. Slick. Very slick. the ad turns a pathological, serial prevaricator who incessantly maliciously attacks everyone who dares disagree with him into a person who "isn't always polite". The ad goes on to tout Trump's leadership during the pandemic. Quickly reviewing the facts, the ad fails to mention that the president at first called the pandemic a "hoax", then suggested that it would simply go away with warm weather, then advised everyone to merely get a flu shot. Although Trump was told in late January that the virus had come to America and that it was going to become serious, he didn't begin to take it seriously until mid march. The piece de resistance was his famous suggesting that by swallowing disinfectants like Lysol and bleach people could rid themselves of the virus. This prompted an outbreak of needless self poisonings among the uninformed Trump crowd, and a host of denials from chemical companies. One third of all the infected and Covid 19 dead people on the planet are American. Why? A lack of an adequate response, obviously. The American people have simply not been willing to make the necessary sacrifices, and there has bee no leadership, only a chaotic, haphazard, contradictory series on nonsensical comments and actions from the white House, which are now being recast, through revisionist history, into a successful plan by the president and his administration. And now, it is the conservative community which is hollering that the country must restart its economy, the conservative community protesting social distancing in the streets, and the conservative community in conservative states prematurely lifting restrictions necessary to get the virus under control. Trump and his supporters, once again, doing harm to the country. The Democrats need only state the facts concerning Trump's performance and his behavior throughout his entire time in office to sufficiently inform the American people to motivate to vote the traitorous criminal out of office. But firs,t Trump's propaganda machine must be exposed for what it is: an elaborate propaganda machine trying to seduce a sleepy electorate with the same nonesense it it has been issuing for three years.
