Just throw a “I’m Kamala Harris and I approve this message” on the end of that, 1 commercial, in the bag. Next.

I honestly don’t understand why they don’t do that all the time.

With how much Trump criticizes Trump, you’d think it’d be easy approval.

It’s called Vampire Effect and it’s a real problem with commercials featuring celebrities, because people tend to remember the person, but not the message/product. So showing clips of Trump would just give him even more exposure.

I can see why they don’t do it for paid commercials but it should definitely be on their streaming channel so that it can be shared and go viral.

It’s only a matter of time until a campaign understands the power that can be unleashed by a couple bored interns.

Open with clip - “15 years ago I was DA of San Fransisco.” Transition to clip of Trump saying this stupid." – crowd applause as it fades to, “I approve this message”

That’s nothing. How many Ivankas does it take to make a Kamala?

Arizona searching for man threatening to kill Trump.

Is that what Fox News is running now?

I bet every state he goes to now they are saying that.

Putting aside my opinions of trump and fox, I do believe that threat was legitimate. I was watching a few different news channels last night and while idr which one mentioned it, they did say that the secret service had cut his Arizona presser short due to a credible violent threat. Some non-fox new outlets are also reporting on the arrest of the suspect:

There are always copycats and I’m sure there are more than one crazy who is looking to prove they can succeed where another failed.

For sure. The other charges against this particular person include: a DUI, a skipped court date, a hit and run, and failing to register as a sex offender. Everyone is entitled to a fair trial, but if I’m speculating, this guy doesn’t have the best record of character and I don’t think it’s far-fetched to believe he made credible death threats on social media.

He was a democrat at the time too, right?

In the 90s he said if he ever ran for office he wasn’t sure which side he would run on. I think he said he would run for whichever party was stupid enough.

15 years ago he wasn’t talking about that. That was 2009, and he had his little TV show that made him look and feel like an important man.

He got on camera, and stated that he would run as a republican because they are so dumb.
