I almost ate the onion on this one. It's far too plausible!

Almost all the Trump ones are - it's more difficult than it should be to push satire beyond things that Trump and his lackeys have actually done.

I can't remember the last Trump ad that featured Trump looking into the camera and making a true statement.

I haven't seen ads for anyone at all. What are you watching that has political ads? Late night comedy shows?

[–] NocturnalMorning 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Youtube, and basically every streaming service we don't pay for that shows ads. But I'm in a swing states, so that's probably why. I can't wait until the election is over and I can stop getting nonstop political ads.

Interesting. I don't watch YouTube or anything that streams with ads. Screw that.

what's wrong with late night comedy shows?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nothing at all. They're just more apt to show an ad to make fun of them.

I can’t remember him ever making a true statement to begin with.

I'm glad you pointed it out, I didn't realize and thought this was real. There's not much Trump can do to surprise me at this point
