Political Ad Megathread

Instagram ad by Trump campaign noting Clinton's reaction to Benghazi attacks.

The barking Hillary ad with Putin was the best yet.

It's probably not a TV ad, but Priorities USA Action and Planned Parenthood Votes released the :20 second Dangerous Plans, which features Donald Trump on the O'Reilly Factor talking about how he'd appoint a Supreme Court Justice that would overturn Roe v. Wade.

[cinyc]

Pro-Clinton Priorities USA Action came out with two :30 second anti-Trump TV ads, both geared toward women:

-Speak features various people - almost all women - mouthing words Donald Trump has said about women in the past as audio from Trump plays - from his remarks about Megyn Kelly, to if Ivanka weren't my daughter, perhaps I'll be dating her, to a woman who is flat-chested is very hard to be a 10.
-Respect starts with Trump saying "no one respects women more than Donald Trump", which is later contrasted largely with Trump policy statements, like cutting funding for Planned Parenthood and punishing women for abortion.  A gratuitous Megyn Kelly reference is thrown in for good measure.

If these ads touting Trump's horrible temperament and his treatment of women didn't work for Rubio in FL, running literally the exact same ad against Trump in the general will not work.

[Obama-Biden Democrat]

If these ads touting Trump's horrible temperament and his treatment of women didn't work for Rubio in FL, running literally the exact same ad against Trump in the general will not work.

The Republican base is so toxic and outside of the mainstream, that when something plays well with the base, it is almost guaranteed to cost you in the general election. Look at how Romney's self deportation remarks worked in the primary but cost him in the general.

"If running ads about how crazy Christine O'Donnell is didn't work in the primary, she's teflon for the general!"

And by the way, by some measure they did "work." He won, but his favorability rating is in the gutter.

[Unconditional Surrender Truman]

If these ads touting Trump's horrible temperament and his treatment of women didn't work for Rubio in FL, running literally the exact same ad against Trump in the general will not work.

Primary electorate ≠ Fall electorate

Instagram ad by Trump campaign noting Clinton's reaction to Benghazi attacks.

Holy sh**t, they played her laughing over burning buildings. Christ that's dirty

Priorities USA came out with one more :30 second ad over the past few days.  There's no oral disclaimer, so it's probably just a web ad - for now:

-In What a Con Man, the PAC highlights Trump's "very successful companies", like Trump Mortgage, Trump Network, Trump Airline, Trump Steaks, Trump Magazine, Trump Vodka and Trump University - all failures or frauds, the PAC claims.

New Trump Instagram: "Here we go again?"

In the past few days, pro-Clinton Priorities USA released another :30 second ad on YouTube:

-How to Avoid Showing Your Taxes features Donald Trump's sometimes inconsistent reasons for not disclosing his tax returns.

I'm going to ad the RNC and DNC's YouTube Channels to the front page, if I can find them.

The Sanders campaign released the :30 second California about two days ago.  In it, Sanders says Californians have the power to choose a new direction for the Democratic party, break the back of a corrupt campaign finance system, stand up to Wall Street and make the rich pay their fair share and get tuition free college.

[cinyc]

Bernie Sanders released a :30-second Spanish TV ad yesterday:

California is basically the same as the English "California" ad Sanders released last week, with everything but the candidate approval statement dubbed into Spanish.

The barking Hillary ad with Putin was the best yet.

I like it too. It's funny how Hillary barking at a rally as a joke is the best attack Trump can come up with.

New "more of the same" ad by Rebuilding America Now at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9t54Ly_mvuk

Two new anti-Trump ads from Priorities USA in recent days:

-In the 1:00 minute Grace, the PAC attacks Trump for mocking a disabled reporter, using parents of a disabled child as the shamers.
-In the 0:15 second The Trump Doctrine, the PAC attacks Trump for saying he's speaking with himself for foreign policy experience.  It ends with the caption "Donald Trump, Too Dangerous for America."

[cinyc]

Four new ads from the Pro-Clinton Priorities USA PAC today, though three of them are really :15 and :30 second variants of the same ad:

-In The Choice (:15), The Choice is Ours (:30) and The Choice is Clear (:15), the PAC uses Trump and Clinton's words on immigrants (are they rapists or dreamers?), juxtaposed against images of presumably Hispanic families doing family stuff.  One :15-second ad features solely Trump's words, another solely Clinton's, and a :30-second ad features both.

-In the :30-second A Racist Statement, the PAC uses prominent Republicans' words to make the case that Trump's comment about the California judge's impartiality is racist.

I've seen this one non-stop this week on TV. I can't believe it's in such high rotation already

They've reserved $20 million until the convention (It's actually a bit more now with the $9 million NC buy). While a Trump PAC has gone up, it is a small buy. Clinton is pretty much unopposed on the airwaves right now and Clinton herself has not started advertising I think. Anyone know what her camp's strategy will be? I will love to see both Priorities USA and HFA go up in GA and AZ. I think they'll have the money to do so.

It seems if Hillary can expose Trump for the fraud that he does, maybe he won't do so well in the GA boonies lol
