Believe me, Hillary's Super PAC and her campaign can play that game, too. Mr. Trump is a soundbite machine . . . I'm sure they can make some abhorrent ads.

I can't tell you how many women on social media today have said this commercial seals the deal. They were leaning away from Trump after the chaos in Chicago and now ~ they are gone. As a voting bloc, women despise Trump.

What kind of ad is that? Not even remotely entertaining.

The path to votes is through humor. This guy is like the "Beautiful Mind" of playing politics. I almost feel not worthy to be in the presents of this commercial. So beyond its time one must wonder if not sent back from time

Trump's usual playlist will not work in the general the way they've played in the primaries. I think it turns off women big time.

Spewing insults and lies about his opponents is getting old. People are tired of the vitriol and it is disrespectful to the electorate. If he doesn't come up with some actual policies and reasons to vote for him, he's toast. Stupid tweets (and geez--do they sound stupid today) are not going to win over the average voter.

Now he's in a bit of a pickle. The majority of the country is turned off by what turns his 'base' on. If he tries to play to middle, his followers won't like it and will feel betrayed. If he continues down the low road he's taken with insults, xenophia and empty promises, the majority of the country is turned off.

Today, when asked who he consults regarding policy, he said "myself." I consult myself. Well it's nice he has so much confidence in himself, but the rest of the country knows he has zero foreign experience, and he can talk to himself all he wants, but it does not reassure others he knows anything about real issues. I thought it was very interesting that he refused to debate, claiming he had a previous engagement to speak to a lobbying group. A lobbying group? Doesn't sound like an outsider to me.

That's been done already it seems to work in his favor. Likely because the reason to support Trump is more important than anything he could say.

If he doesn't have a plan, then that spells trouble for Hillary. Where is she going to copy her speeches from if not from "Donny"? That's what she's been doing up to date with Bernie, all she says anymore is just a pure copy of what Bernie says.

Let me guess, the forum you were on in which you made this discovery was the rich, old, white Democratic Party group, correct?

I think the point of the video was that Hillary was sounding like an idiot. Instead of talking about issues, she's up there barking like a dog. She was the one who decided to do that, not Trump.

I can't wait for the ad that says something along the lines of:

"How can you expect her to take care of her country when she couldn't even take care of her husband?"

It's a good point.

I Absolutely Loved it ! Putting Hillarys poor excuse of a joke right back at her- and in fact- Far more reaching. ( her little stunt of barking like a little dog aimed at republicans... )

This woman, who left a compound under attack for 13 hours, while there was help 2 hours away, and did nothing- leaving 4 people dead, only to come back and lie to the families ( though had admited in emails to the UN and her daughter what happened), And continued the cover up so she could continue her lie of "diplomacy " in Libya but was actually a SHAM.....
Neither she and for sure not Obama are respected as representing a world power.

Putin already has respect for Trump and thinks well of him. Wouldn't that be nice to restore respectful relations between us and Russia again...
Ad was Perfectly done- and Check mate !
