To add context, the ads are on YouTube, I’m in North Carolina, they’ve mostly (all?) been regarding Medicare with a voiceover saying “He’s not going to cut Medicare or Medicaid” followed with him saying “None of that stuff is gonna be touched”
I can only imagine there’s some local elections or primaries that have his stink on it and some GOP candidate is trying to ‘roll down the windows’?
Because he is going to cut Medicare and Medicaid, all of that stuff is gonna get touched.
I will never stop laughing at “I hAve CONcePtS of A PlAN” said in the voice of a fucking child who got caught lying
I, almost for certain, thought that (along with the rest of that debate) was the end of him at the time. Entire political careers have lived and died on sub-10-second sound bites, and there is no way to spin that to make him sound like he knows what he’s doing.
Propaganda sinks in better if it’s heard years in advance instead of 3 months before the election. It’s easier to make people think other news sources are exaggerating if they’ve heard the opposite for months and months prior
this is the local representation hiding behind the orange dictators apron strings. they refuse to meet with their consituents to answer to their actions (or lack thereof), so theyre attempting to appeal to the hyper-maga crowd who are so brainwashed by fox news they believe this shit.
Not really an answer to your question, but Firefox + Ublock Origin will fix that problem for you.
And YouTube ReVanced for mobile.
And NextDNS for everything else.
I like https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe
Is ReVanced having any features I’m missing out on with NewPipe? (Serious question, never bothered trying ReVanced)
Because we do not live in a Democracy with regular election seasons.
We live in a fascist oligarchy, which must constantly beam propoganda into the minds of its citizens.
…
Trump basically never stopped campaigning during the entirety of the Biden term, nor even for his fist term… despite being the President.
US political ad seasons are notorious for being … way too long, up to a year… compared to most functional demcracies, where this ad season is often several weeks, not several, or many months.
Trump ratcheted this lengthy American political ad season into just literally all the time.
Before him, a sitting President running ads… during the middle of their own term… I think its literally unprecedented. Sure they’d give addresses and speeches to the public in extraordinary situations… but not run what amount to campaign ads… just all the time.
This is the power of money and media in the digital age.
Tell the lies often enough, and they become real to the enthralled. Literally right out of Goebbels playbook.
It truly now just is cult reaffirming propoganda, in the derogatory 1984/dictator sense of propoganda
Trump has stated many times he’ll serve a third term. Told people they’d “never need to vote again.” He fully plans on being President untill he dies.

Hell, his official website is selling Trump 2028 merch.
Look at the Atlantic interview.
“I would never, ever consider running again, I’m against it, I don’t even want to talk about it, it’s a boundary too far, stop asking.”
“However I do have people shouting in my face that I must.”
He’ll not run again.
However, unless he is stopped by the American people, or death, or death by the American people -wink wink- then his second term will be for as long as he wants it to be. Putin style.
It’s up to the people of the USA if he is allowed to do that or not.
I doubt they’ll do anything though. They’ll wait and wait hoping for someone else to do something and when they finally realise no one is going to stop him it will be too late. He’ll have taken over everything that could topple or stand against him and filled it with his cronies. The backwards school yard bully will have become the backwards despotic dictator.
It’s the saddest part. He always said exactly what he was going to do. And Thiels plans were also known for years, in the open in obscure edgelord blogs. They all never made a secret out of their plans.
I wonder what else from the “crazy stuff he says” he will actually do at some point, like the famous “shooting some random person on the street” without consequences or something. Maybe in 2028.
