A bit from the article:
> Democrats will target Donald Trump’s first full-scale campaign rally since his criminal trial with a billboard that brands him “a convicted white-collar crook”.
>
> The ad, paid for by the Democratic National Committee (DNC), is the latest indication that the party is ready to become more aggressive in capitalising on last month’s guilty verdict in New York.
>
> “Trump was a disaster for Nevada’s economy,” says the billboard, which will be displayed in Las Vegas, where Trump is due to speak on Sunday. “Now he’s back. A convicted white-collar crook. Coddling billionaires, leaving workers behind.”
I imagine there’s more than a tinge of orange on that collar.
It would also help to show all the convictions of the people surrounded by trump. One thing to be a convict. Another to be a convict who surrounds himself with other convicts.
I don’t think it was from the DNC, but a few days ago I came across a prominent billboard near Trump Country, PA that just said “CONVICTED FELON” in huge letters with a faint picture of him.
White collar crook, has a nice ring to it.
Trumps base looks down on white collar and Wall Street types. Adding the now proven, in addition to the previously known crook element imho moves him from the bad boy position to the creepy criminal position in one easily said and easily visualized phrase.
Give the DNC props for coming to the fight with more than their usual watergun.
After 10 years of the MAGA party I can testify, without dispute, that they don’t recognize truth as valuable.
Why are they so damn weird? Who the fuck thinks about “white collar” shit? Just call him a convicted felon.
They forgot to add the convicted rap1st part.
the language from the left is way too soft regarding trump. I honestly don’t know how they plan to win this fight. Because this aint it.
“Donald Trump. Unfit to serve.”
Now that is an understatement.
They really need to stop glossing over the “rapist” part.
Fuck this. Call him what he is – “Convicted FELON”. Crook has too may ambiguous connotations, and white-collar just makes it sound like its not a big deal.
More like off-white collar
A smart idea from them.
We all know what state he’s in at any given time, he’s in the state of denial.
The DNC is already fucking up the messaging, which is extremely on brand for them:
”Basket full of deplorables” instead of “fascists”
”quid pro quo” instead of “bribe”
”collusion” instead of “treason”
”white collar crook” instead of “felon”
🤦🏻♂️
They should run an ad on the specifics of what he did
” A man who has sex with a porn star, while his wife is pregnant and then breaks the law to keep her quiet, should not represent America. VOTE JOE BIDEN. Because are better than that. “
I’m sorry, but why call him a “white collar crook?” Again shows how poorly Dems understand the voters they are trying to sway.
It should have read “convicted FELON”
His rally will be in a park that’s known to be filled with homeless, prostitution,drugs right next to an international airport with planes taking off and arriving every 5 minutes on Avery in the late afternoon the temperature will be a stagnant 110 more or less. Good luck on him lasting more than 20 minutes if that.
