A Democratic Super PAC is running ads about Trump’s reaction to the threat of the coronavirus. Tapes acquired from various sound bites reveal a maniacal Donald John Trump ranting uncontrollably, and after he was made aware of the ads, he exploded in another unpresidential tantrum. The recordings expose a man in denial and his assumptions which turned out to be 100 percent in error.
His campaign committee has filed a “cease and desist letter,” demanding that all broadcasts of the ads end immediately. The truth is a dangerous thing for those who lie constantly.
The letter was posted on Wednesday. “On behalf of Donald J. Trump for President, Inc., President Trump’s principal campaign committee, this letter notifies you that your station is airing a patently false, misleading, and deceptive advertisement,” wrote Alex Cannon, special counsel to Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. “Because [the] ad’s central point is deliberately false and misleading, your station has an obligation to cease and desist from airing it immediately to comply with FCC licensing requirements, to serve the public interest, and to avoid costly and time-consuming litigation.” Um, yeah, the ad simply regurgitates all Trump’s falsehoods on the virus, sound bite by sound bite. So, if it’s “patently false” and “misleading,” that’s because Trump narrates the entire thing in his own words.
“The truth will set you free,” and in Trump’s case the truth will end his illegitimate presidency.
A final note. I attempted to watch the video, and apparently the courts have removed it from public view. Is this fascism? You’re f**king right it is. Censorship of free speech; the truth; was paramount in Hitler’s efforts to control the people of Germany in the 1930’s.
