In reply to the discussion: Trump has sent a cease and desist letter over this ad. [View all]ooky
(8,922 posts)16. Trump desperately wants the country to forget all of his early remarks
about the Coronavirus.
But we aren't going to let the country forget.
Not only would I keep running that ad, for which his argument is ridiculous (as is usual in the case in any legal action he initiates), but I would run another ad with the entirety of the statement he repeated in his cease and desist letter, to show that in entirety it does not change the context at all.
If he dislikes this one, he 's really going to hate the ads in which he suggests its okay for old people to die in order to "save the American economy".

"the Democrat's politicization"? How embarrassing that he can't even find a literate lawyer

Multiple groups should create their own variant of the ad and air it in every state.

First of all, whoever wrote that letter needs to learn the correct use of the apostrophe.

Powerful ad, using his own words. The upward increasing arc is especially effective.
