(10,177 posts)Had the whistleblower not dropped a dime on Trump's sleazy Ukraine scheme last summer, throwing a wrench into his campaign of attacks and getting him impeached, the POS would be running ads against Biden right now.

But, this is the template for every Democratic ad against Trump for the rest of the year.

(36,806 posts)China has more population than America and they truly did start from scratch.
But they were proactive much quicker.
Trump had warning and chose to pretend all was well in order to make himself look good.
Doing nothing for weeks allowed the Trumpvirus to spread uninhibited and now we have significantly surpassed China/Italy to become #1 in deaths and cases.

(10,900 posts)It's just a mashup of Johnson's 1964 ad against Goldwater with other Biden content.

(34,195 posts)1st -- No one will air a 2 minute ad.
2nd -- Biden would never run such an ad

(6,148 posts)It's an anti-Trump ad.
It doesn't mention Biden at all.
It's to get people in the "anyone but Trump" mode.

(4,436 posts)1. This video contains the ICU video from Sky News that was filmed in Italy, not the USA. Conservatives played up very big last week that CNN aired Italian doctors and presented it as New York. They all said See? CNN gave fake news by using Italy and saying it was the USA. They will say that again, and they will be correct.
2. This ad used the 1964 election 3. Daisy ad, which was used against Barry Goldwater. Only political junkies older than age 55 will understand and recognize the ad. 90% of those under age 50 will have no idea what that is in there for.
3. This ad- while is does a fair job of linking the Covid-19 cases to Trump, does NOTHING to explain how Trump dropped the ball. At most, al it does us say that when Coronavirus came, Trump was President. Even the red line sticking up at the end, with Trump hanging on to it, doesnt explain what that represents. (It represents number of cases, not number of deaths, by the way.) some dumb people will see that and interpret Trump is Number 1!, and think it is a PRO TRUMP commercial. Yes, people ARE that stupid.
4. Nothing in this ad tells me it is a Biden ad. Not a thing. Everybody KNOWS Trump is President. Hell, Trump himself could run this ad, put a spin on it, and gain votes.
5. People want to know what will be different if Biden is elected. I want to know what will be different if Biden is elected. This ad doesnt say- in fact it doesnt even under. Why would anybody vote for Joe, after watching an ad that contains a nuclear blast, and has a picture of Donny hanging onto a needle showing USA ya Number one.
I get the ad- only because Im a 60 year old politicial junkie used to seeing the Daisy ad pop out every once in a while. Most Americans wont get it.
My 2 cents.

(7,417 posts)It's not "pro" Biden, or anything at all, actually. Just anti-Trump. That's not how you win votes.

(13,552 posts)I actually saw the one time it aired. But was repeated in news stories because it was controversial and just about everyone had seen some replay of it.
It was a different time. There was nowhere near as many sources for news or entertainment - or propaganda as now.
I hope the campaign can put out more strong ads.

(4,015 posts)Wrong and stupid in so many ways.
I did like the funny graphic of a Virus on Trump's head.

(24,653 posts)I was compelled by the beginning of the famous daisy ad, but thoroughly let down from where I thought it might go. It was a visual and auditory mess. What a disappointment from its potential.
