Clinton's 'nasty' Trump ads are mostly his own words 
JULIE BYKOWICZ, Associated Press

 

WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump says Hillary Clinton is making "nasty" ads about him. Most of Clinton's commercials about Trump, though, merely include clips of him speaking. Her campaign seems to have concluded that Trump is his own worst enemy.

 

The most frequently used Clinton advertisements about Trump have a common theme: They show regular people, often in the flicker of a television set, spliced with footage of Trump making some of his most incendiary comments. The Republican presidential nominee's decades in the spotlight, including as a reality television show host, have given the Democratic contender an unusual bounty of ad material.

 

Trump is paying attention. During Monday's debate, he told Clinton he's noticed "the very nasty commercials that you do on me in so many different ways, which I don't do on you."

 

That prompted Shonda Rhimes, a television producer and Clinton supporter, to tweet: "Wait. She did not run ads that say mean things. She ran ads that use audio of his own mean nasty statements."

 

The Associated Press reviewed Clinton's 32 different general election ads that have aired on broadcast television and national cable and found 24 that show or mention Trump. The majority of those feature raw footage of him rather than others opining on his words and actions.

 

Trump's assessment at the debate that he's not running "nasty" ads about Clinton also isn't quite right. Through this week, his campaign had only four different ads — three of which swat at Clinton, including one that highlights her "basket of deplorables" comment about his supporters.

 

While Trump is just starting to expand his advertising — promising at least $100 million in TV spots by Election Day — Clinton has already spent $136 million on general election spots, Kantar Media's political ad tracker shows.

 

Hope Hicks, Trump's campaign spokeswoman, did not respond to a request for comment about why Trump characterized the Clinton ads about him as "nasty." During the debate he seemed to say it's because they lack context.

 

"You know, Hillary is hitting me with tremendous commercials," he said. "Some of it's said in entertainment." He named Rosie O'Donnell as one of his targets, saying "she deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her."

 

One of Clinton's newest ads, called "Mirrors," shows girls looking at their reflections, brushing their hair and taking selfies while Trump says things like "look her right in that fat, ugly face of hers" and "a person who is flat-chested is very hard to be a 10." Trump lobbed the former barb at O'Donnell and the latter at actress Nicolette Sheridan.

 

The 30-second spot debuted late last week and has already aired 4,000 times.

 

It's a female-specific twist on what has been her most frequently shown ad, called "Role Models."

 

In that spot, which has aired more than 15,300 times since it debuted in mid-July, children are lounging around television sets as Trump says, "I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK," and replays a clip of him saying a curse word, which is bleeped out.

 

The spot ends with the text: "Our children are watching. What kind of president will they see?"

 

Other Clinton ads seek to portray Trump as an unsteady leader by highlighting his comments about turning to himself and Sunday talk shows for military advice. "I am speaking with myself because I have a very good brain," Trump says in an interview that's included in several Clinton spots.

 

The campaign also beams his words into Democratic households that Clinton is trying to motivate.

 

In Spanish-language commercials, voters can hear Trump's description at his campaign kickoff last year of some Mexican immigrants as "rapists" and "criminals." In a new commercial on BET, Trump's question to African-Americans at a recent campaign stop, "What the hell do you have to lose?" by voting for him is played. The Clinton campaign answers with text on the screen: "EVERYTHING."

 

Still more Trump footage finds its way into dozens of ads by Priorities USA, a super PAC backing Clinton.

 

Trump has continued to provide a steady stream of new material.

 

During the debate, Clinton mentioned Alicia Machado, a former Miss Universe whom Trump had called "Miss Piggy" when he owned the pageant. Trump continued talking about Machado the next morning. "She gained a massive amount of weight, and it was a real problem," he told Fox News.

 

That clip is now part of a Clinton campaign video that went online Wednesday.

Trump is good at digging his own hole to bury himself in. No need to give him any more air time than absolutely necessary. The less I see and hear of him the better.

 

I would rather see ads from Hillary like one of her latest ads. This one is inspiring.

How many times and how many women has Bill Clinton sexually assaulted throughout his adult life? How many of those women has Hillary silenced from coming forward?
 

Maybe Trump should make some ads about the exemplary couple.

 

You do know that when sexual  advances are consensual its not classed as rape or abuse, right?

 

Most of those women knew what they were doing and set out with a plan. The huge settlement payments evidence that.

 

I'd say all of them got off on the ego trip and notoriety of messing around with a president.

That they cashed in doesnt make them victims. Bill was the victim if anything.

Horrid vultures.

I think you forget Bill had quite a history with women before he became President. 

Juanita Broaddrick was alleged raped so severely that he nearly tore off her upper lip, then raped her a 2nd time. Reportedly, Bill’s words were before he started the crime, “My God, I can do it again.”

 

In 1972, a 22-year-old woman told campus police at Yale University

In 1974, a female student at the University of Arkansas 

Broaddrick, a volunteer in Clinton’s gubernatorial campaign, said he raped her in 1978

 

From 1978-1980, during Clinton’s first term as governor of Arkansas, state troopers assigned to protect the governor were aware of at least seven complaints from women who said Clinton forced, or attempted to force, himself on them sexually

 

There are a lot more - go ahead and read about them.

I'm not sure why there's such a fuss. Men in power have always had affairs. Britain's Edward VII only bedded married women. Power itself is an acknowledged aphrodisiac. It's rather middle class to be going on and on about it. Besides, there's no need to "trump up" The Donald's infidelities - he boasts about them endlessly

I think the concern is that they can be blackmailed.  Like letting a Muslim born in Kenya become President of the USA or agreeing to switch the pound for the dollar in international currency or not defending Pearl Harbor from attack or something like that (no reference to anyone living or dead).

Unsubstantiated, one only has to be in the public eye and there are allegations... just ask  Cliff Richards:stoner:

Rape is a serious allegation... as far as I know with Monica it was consensual... again lets have names.

It's come to a pretty sorry story when all Trump supporters have got in their armoury is old news about Bill Clinton's sexual exploitations.

 

Maybe time to remind everyone that this is actually the election for the next President of the United States of America.  Surely time for the candidates to drag themselves out of the gutter and behave like grownups.

On top of that, now it has come out that donald "j" trump appeared in a PORNO video himself. Not doing sex but in a non-sex "plot" scene of a porno. Now, I have nothing against porn, I'm pro porn actually, but he is attacking women for maybe being in porn and he HIMSELF was in it. What a total sleazeball hypocrite he is.

 

Also consider this seriously about the sexist implications.

trump being in a porn (even non-sexually) will not impact his chances to be president one bit at all. We all know that.

 

Now IMAGINE if Hillary Clinton had also been in a porn, also just non-sexually.  Be honest. If that was so, she would have never run for president to begin with because, as a WOMAN, with such a DOUBLE STANDARD, that would have totally eliminated her.

There is no concern, just hypocrisy.

And still the Trumpers trot out this Muslim/ Kenyan smear, despite the fact that Trump himself grudgingly admitted after many years that it was utter nonsense.

 

Don't get me wrong- Hillary seems a dreadful choice, but it is hardly anyone else's fault that the GOP can't come up with a candidate with even a smidgen of decency, ability or experience.

 

I will be glad when she wins if only to see the US public say 'stick it in your pipe' to the disgusting mud-raking tactics we see from Trump supporters here on tv on a daily basis.

 

In England 'trump' is a euphemism for 'fart' used when talking to young children.  How telling.

It seems that even the Trumpsters on here are clutching at straws now.  I do think it is a mistake to refer to him as the GOP candidate though.  I know most republicans would eat their own ears rather than vote for Trump.  he is really just a nutjob who has jumped onto the republican bandwagon like a leech

Yeah, and get Roger Ailes to produce them. The hypocrisy is astonishing.

Even considering the links people have posted i find it hard to believe Clinton would have had to force himself on any of those women.

 

Power, money, and well, im sure a certain amount of charm..how many would have actually rejected his advances?

I guess it makes them look less a s**t if they claim rape, and theres big money to be had.

Has he ever actually been charged with rape?

If not, IMO, by definition that makes him not a rapist.

Apart from smearing Trump supporters as 'deplorables' here is what Clinton had to say about Sanders supporters.

Hacked audio of a conversation between Hillary Clinton and donors during a February fundraising event shows the Democrat nominee describing Bernie Sanders supporters as "children of the Great Recession" who are "living in their parents’ basement."

But do be sure to leave your parents basements to vote for Hillary on polling day. 555

Horrid vultures.

You must have forgotten HRC's speech saying that victims of sexual predators should be supported, not denigrated, though she was responsible for a great deal of denigration of her husband's victims.

If they were all just after a big payout, he must have been incredibly stupid to keep doing it with more women.

 

HRC will regret opening the door to those ads if Trump decides to spend some money on ads. She has more than enough bad comments on the record to make hundreds of ads about her comments.

Perhaps he's waiting till just before the election.

Interesting how Politico edited her comments to put a completely different spin on it.

 

For instance, omitting this comment in the middle:

 

Quote

I met with a group of young black millennials today and you know one of the young women said, “You know, none of us feel that we have the job that we should have gotten out of college. And we don’t believe the job market is going to give us much of a chance.” So that is a mindset that is really affecting their politics.

 

And cutting the end:

 

Quote

(So I think we should all be really understanding of that) and should try to do the best we can not to be, you know, a wet blanket on idealism. We want people to be idealistic. We want them to set big goals. But to take what we can achieve now and try to present them as bigger goals.

 

A pretty feeble attempt at taking what was an upbeat and empathetic piece and attempting to portray it as a piss take.

Pretty poor journalism.

No doubt Trump has the tweet ready.

 

:rolleyes:

You know sometimes things are so different if they are said in the correct context without cutting out the bits that twist it the way you want it. Is there any integrity on here? Speaking on 'Millennials' and being asked why Bernie had such a huge following of young voters she said:

 

Quote

"Some are new to politics completely. They’re children of the Great Recession. And they are living in their parents’ basement," she said.

"They feel they got their education and the jobs that are available to them are not at all what they envisioned for themselves.

And they don’t see much of a future." Clinton added: "If you’re feeling like you’re consigned to, you know,

being a barista, or you know, some other job that doesn’t pay a lot, and doesn’t have some other ladder of

opportunity attached to it, then the idea that maybe, just maybe, you could be part of a political revolution is pretty appealing."   "I think we all should be really understanding of that," Clinton said.



 

 

She was eluding to a generation who went out, got their education and there were simply no jobs that allowed them any real opportunities. Hence no money, no ability to buy their first home and many continuing to live at home with their parents. She said that Bernie gave them a vision.

 

But you guys twist and spin anyway you wish to suit your perverted case. It is shameful and an insult to anyone with more than half a brain that understands what is being said. I am no Hillary fan but the attempt to demonise her for the entire problem faced by the US is so mindless and immature it reflects pathetically on those that try to spin and spout.
