#16  All that aside, it is a funny ad.

#15  Ebbang, its an order of magnitude worse for Trumpy And HilLIARy.

Plenty out ther eon Trump, start with self contradictions and lies - there are plenty to be seen. Bu wait till they get going on Trumps ongoing fraud trial, and his past associations with organized crime. They dont have to prove anything, they will simply insinuate it, and that is enough to destroy him with anyone other than Trumpbots who are willingly self-blinded. And Trump is stupid enough to rise to the bait and put his foot in his mouth which will worsen the damage.

The only thing that remains to be seen is if he can damage hillary as much as hillary can damage him.

This is going to be a slime fest, a race to the bottom.

Unless Hillary gets indicted. That changes things (Hello Joe Biden in that case)

#14  In the annals of U.S. political history there has probably never ever been two more flawed political front runners than Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

Worse than Baraq Hussein and John McCain in 2008? I don't think so.

Some comparison:
From RCP Average Favorability/Unfavorability Data in the polls on March 1 - 11, 2008
John McCain: Favorable = 52.3 Unfavorable = 41.5
Barack Obama: Favarable = 69.0 Unfavorable = 23.0

From RCP Average Favorability/Unfavorability Data in the polls on March 7 - 17, 2016
Hillary Clinton: Favorable = 40.8 Unfavorable = 53.3
Donald Trump: Favarable = 32.5 Unfavorable = 61.0

Actually both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump's Unfavorable Ratings are both better than last week. Hillary's were in the 55% range and Donald Trump's were as high as 67%.

Voters think they are both liars.

#13  On the day after the conclusion of the nominating conventions we should expect an eruption of insults and mud slinging unlike anything any of us has witnessed in the past.

You weren't around in 1860, but you know the result. "Them's fightn words" had real meaning.

#12  There is so much dirt on Hillary it's amazing and yet we all know it and it still doesn't hurt her with her core.

Same with Trump.

We have reached peak politics.

#10  I'd think Trump's got dirt to throw back over Hitlery.

#9  Hardly a day passes that Hillary Clinton does not say or do something that can only considered as outragously stupid. But it could hardly be said that Donald Trump does any better.

Donald Trump is without doubt Hillary Clinton's preferred opponent. And likewise Hillary Clinton is obviously Donald Trump's preferred opponent.

There is an old adage that a candidate should never interrupt their opponents while they are engaged in destroying themselves.
It would be counter productive for either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump to attack their preferred opponent at this point.

In the annals of U.S. political history there has probably never ever been two more flawed political front runners than Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

After 40 years in politics, Hillary Clinton's personal and political scandals are pretty well documented. But the very surface of Donald Trump's ugly personal and business affairs has, on the other hand, remained mostly unscratched.

On the day after the conclusion of the nominating conventions we should expect an eruption of insults and mud slinging unlike anything any of us has witnessed in the past.

#8  #7 But the left is attacking the ad as sexist.


These attacks don't seem to be that effective against Trump. I guess people are just plain fed up with PC and the usual leftist drek.

Walmart, Target, Big Pharma ?

#4  I don't expect Trump can overcome the Entitlement/Industrial Complex, but his truth bombs are sure entertaining.
