If you are an independent like myself, and watch this 30 second clip, it would be exceedingly hard to vote for Trumo when giving serious consideration to what could happen under Pres. Trump.

It's like preaching to the choir. NO ONE trusts what Hillary says....I have seen it. Her voice annoys me so I put the tv on mute when she shrills.

Just so you know, Trump has had several new ads already on the air in nine states, with more to come. Hillary's ads are a lost cause anyway; she's got bigger fish to fry in the coming days.

Yes they were. Just not directly in the same way AND I'm in no way trying to defend Bush's incompetence.

We now live in a time where each President feels compelled to invade militarily another nation (or do this by proxy) and overthrow some crackpot dictator since the end of WWII.

Off the top of my head:

Eisenhower: Iran
Kennedy/Johnson: Vietnam
Nixon: Pick a South American country(proxy)/Vietnam
Carter: Did not invade another country!
Reagan: Grenada and Central America(proxy)
Bush 41: Panama and Iraq
Clinton: Serbia (Not ONE American was killed due to combat)
Bush 43: Iraq and Afghanistan
Obama: Libya
Clinton: ????

Thats what happens when you have the worlds largest and most expensive military, you meddle in other countries with it.
Which is why I am voting Stein as I imagine she is the most likely one to break this run. (You left off Syria) It's an even bigger mess than Libya.

No one approved Libya or Syria.

Hey, sir, you are talking about the 2013 inductee to the WWE Hall of Fame . . . . .

For real.

Do we really need a WWE HOF as POTUS?

I know a lot of local Green's who have worked hard to get her on the ballot. She is on the ballot in 42 states and is working on the rest. She has never held political office and is running for President, only slightly less ridiculous than Donald Trump seeking the office (she is far more qualified, on this we can agree)

However, her polling numbers are around 5%, and Green's here would consider that a small victory if she hits that number. And that might just be enough to give the Presidency to Trump, especially in key swing states.

No thanks Jill, try running for Mayor or maybe a seat in Congress, I think it best to hold some political office before attempting to be President of the United States. That's why I dismiss the Green's outside of local elections, they don't have a single member in Congress. Why do they waste their time and energy on this? Just an attention grab, but could have disastrous results in the general.

It's probably the best ad.

I saw this ad earlier today and I laughed. I thought whoever was in charge was very smart.

My favorite part is the last clip @0:18 because Trump looks like he is angry and out of control. His body language is terrible. I love how they left the part after he stopped speaking and he is blinking rapidly.
