Trump supporters react to satirical campaign ads

[Crumpets]

I don't know the show this came from, but I saw it posted on LinkedIn of all places. Pretty good, if a bit weird.

Wow, watching now...the second one was incredible - very accurate.

[Xing]

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

[ProudModerate2]

OMG, that was hilarious !
I actually started crying it was so funny.
BUT NO .... c'mon .... that can't be true. They had to be actors that went along with this skit.
No one can be this naïve ..... not even trump supporters .... close to it, but not quite this extreme.

[Bismarck]

Pretty funny but clearly fake. The bad thing is it feeds in to the idea that Trump supporters are all idiots without legitimate opinions.

Oh this is not fake at all.

[CanadianObserver]

I guess those people are part of Trump's poorly educated group of the population.

I'm pretty sure the ending with the phone call gave it away. When "Trump" comments on the guy's weight. That's stupidity you don't see every day.

Nope. This is 100% real, I guarantee it. Look at the ending where they are doing sound bites for Trump - that's what ordinary people look like when they try to act. The rest of it was most definitely not acting. And infact, if they had hired some seriously convincing actors, they would have made it more ridiculous. I'm a psychologist and I would bet my entire education on this being real.

[indietraveler]

I want to believe this is fake...if it's real, this is close to a new low for our species.

[Classic Conservative]

But it's pretty funny TBH

[indietraveler]

i agree there...this is the hardest i have laughed all year.

[Wells]

The ads were so obviously fake. The reactions, on the other hand. . .

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

It's gotta be fake... nobody is that gullible.  Right?

[Cruzcrew]

Lmao trapping illegals in a house and shipping them by crane to Mexico. This can't be real.

[BlueSwan]

To clarify: the ads are obviously fake. The people in the video and their reactions are real.

[Badger]

I think I doubted the testimonials they gave at the end. That crossed the line from stupidity to obvious satire.

However, it's quite possible they were asked to read a cue card of attack lines "prepared by the Trump campaign".... Yeah, i could see it.

Thimk abot the idiot Trump supporters on the Forum. Fuzzy Bear is the only one who can string coherent thoughts together, and sometimes even he....well..... (though I think even he understands now that Clinton's Iraq vote pales in comparison to Trump's warmongering, and Trump's opposition to trade deals is at LEAST as opportunistic as Hillary's opposition to the TPP.

Anyhoo, judging from the morons among us, these guys are all too real.

You may have a point - I've dropped a couple once-good blogs where the author (and better posters) went so thoroughly in the tank for the Trump cult that it was just painful to try and watch them twist their own (sometimes worthy) ideals along with Trump's various oral emissions into some sort of vague compatibility. For example:

-non-interventionists who insist that "kill ISIS" Trump is a foreign policy dove.

-anti-corporatists who insist that billionaire Trump, with his econ team of billionaires and CEOs (along with his Goldman Sach's campaign finance chair) is "looking out for the little guy".

-and most bizarrely, civil liberties supporters, who insist that in spite of Trump's open embrace of xenophobia, police state tactics,  fake-Christian theocracy, and restrictions on free speech, he's some sort of civil rights champion.


Mostly I think they're just folks trying to avoid acknowledging their Hillary-derangement syndrome.
