Trump has released a new campaign video that, for two and a half minutes, contains no policy or mention of anything he will do for America.
video:
——Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 12, 2024
The video is nothing more than ominous music and Trump In an attempt to appear to be the president, previous remarks were edited to include:
The only crime I have committed is fearlessly defending our country from those who would seek to destroy it. The more a broken system tells you that you are wrong, the more determined you should be to keep moving forward. They want to take my freedom away because I will never let them take your freedom away.
…
They want me to shut up because I will never let them shut you up. They’re not coming after me, they’re coming after you, and I just happen to be in their way, and I’m never going to move. On November 5, 2024, justice will be served. We will take back our country and we will make things right. Make America Great Again, America will always meet every challenge and overcome every danger.
The film is full of Trump’s grievances and complaints, but it makes no mention of what Trump will do as president or how he will solve any of the country’s problems. All Trump is saying is vote for him and everything will be great.
What great things will he do? He didn’t say. How will he create great things? There are no answers there either.
This new video exposes the emptiness of Donald Trump’s campaign. Trump is running a purposeless campaign. Trump has no reason to seek the presidency other than to possibly avoid jail time while using the presidency for his own benefit.
Trump is an act of nostalgia, with his first campaign ad promising little more than a return to the past without showing any concern or vision for the future
