Trump Vows To "Quickly Cut The Head Off Isis And Take Their Oil" In First TV Ad
“The world is laughing at us, at our stupidity,” Donald trump told the Washington Post, in an interview on Sunday. “It’s got to stop. We’ve got to get smart fast — or else we won’t have a country.”
Those comments came as the GOP frontrunner gave the Post an exclusive look at his campaign’s first television spot, which is set to debut on Monday.
Trump has thus far run what one might call an “unconventional” campaign. While rivals spent millions on television ads only to see their poll numbers drop, Trump relied on... well, on being Trump. The bombastic billionaire’s fiery stump speech (which, while short on substance, lacks nothing when it comes to conviction) has resonated with large swaths of the American electorate that are fed up with business as usual inside the Beltway.
With his first ad, Trump is sticking with what’s worked. That is, he’s doubling down on the same controversial messages that have both surprised and captivated the political punditry who now exist in a perpetual state of shock thanks to the fact that Trump is rewriting the rules of what candidates can and should say on the campaign trail. Here’s WaPo with a description of the new spot:
Donald Trump’s ad begins with a shot of President Obama and Hillary Clinton. Then comes a U.S. battleship launching a cruise-missile strike. From there it moves swiftly through an explosive montage: The suspects in the recent California terrorist attack. Shadowy figures racing across the U.S.-Mexico border. Islamic State militants.
The narrator, a deep-voiced man, speaks ominously: “That’s why he’s calling for a temporary shutdown of Muslims entering the United States, until we can figure out what’s going on. He’ll quickly cut the head off ISIS and take their oil. And he’ll stop illegal immigration by building a wall on our southern border that Mexico will pay for.”
The spot closes with the image of Trump thundering at one of his rallies, “We will make America great again!”

"Trump has vowed to spend at least $2 million a week on the ads — an amount that will be amplified by the countless times they are likely to be played on cable news and across social media," WaPo continues, adding that "Trump has six to eight ads in production [which] he hopes will impress upon undecided voters that the country has become 'a dumping ground.'"
Notably, Trump is doubling down on the Muslim ban message just days after that very same message turned up in an al-Shabaab propaganda video. Of course that shouldn't surprise anyone. Trump isn't one to backtrack and hey, "if it aint broke..."
And yet even as short a spot as that described above reveals what certainly appears to be a lack of understanding when it comes to policy specifics. For instance, one cannot "take" Islamic State's oil. It isn't theirs for Trump to take. That oil belongs to Syria and Iraq. Additionally, Trump seems certain that Mexico will be willing to fund the construction of a giant border fence. It's not at all clear why he believes that.
In any event, if Trump's television spots are anything like his campaign trail rallies, we're in for some epic trolling of America's entrenched political aristocracy and also of the liberal media. We'll close with WaPo's amusing account of the moment when the final cut of the first ad was played in the candidate's 26th-floor suite at Trump Tower:
One afternoon last week in the candidate’s 26th-floor suite at Trump Tower here, the fiery depictions of global terrorism flickered on Trump’s face as he stared down at campaign manager Corey Lewandowski’s laptop computer to watch the final cut of the ad.
“Play it again,” Trump told Lewandowski, nodding approvingly. “I love the feel of it.”

ZH is going to get the war they want one way or another. tick tock
Trump is our" last great white hope" to unseat the dreck that occupies Washington. All you nay sayers should ask yourselves " do we reject a plain speaking New Yorker for eloquent speaking charlatins who have never worked a day in their lives and have pandered to all the enemies of we Americans to insulate their position at State?"
Before Trump supporters get anywhere near the 'fake' voting machines, there will be a disclosure that will rock the entire fabric of the world as we know it……

Really? (the link) Seek the Lord while you can for Christ's sake.
It is no longer about who I will vote for. It is about who I am against and will not vote for. Hillary…puke. Jeb….gag. Rubio…phew. So am I excited about the left-over candidates - nope. Its frustrating, America needs another George Washington to clean-up this country. I don’t see one in the current pack.
It is refreshing to hear a few voices, like Trump, spout some of what people are thinking. But I have yet to hear anyone with the balls to tell Obama to shove his second amendment plans up his ass. It is that type of fire we need. Immigrant issues are fine to talk about. But I am losing my basic rights and I hear no one railing against that!
Do Not Vote
Check Trump's Biloxi speech. He did just that re Obama's 2nd amendment aims.
Even Zionist jews thought they could control and use Adolf.
The US watched ISIS make money off of oil sales through Turkey which helped ISIS grow, expand, and terrorize for 2 years and did NOTHING to stop it. It also helped keep the cost of oil low through oversupply which hurt Russia. The US bombed sand dunes in Syria's desert to pretend it was attempting to destroy ISIS who was cutting off heads of Christians, spies, journalists and anyone who opposed the terror that is islam. The US looked the other way at ISIS oil profits as NATO Turkey grew richer, Russia grew poorer and industrialized countries got cheaper oil. A few US casualties along the way is nothing compared to the power the elites will have after they get control of all the Worlds energy resources and the World's population that must then join in the World Order.
It wasn't until Russia entered, started bombing the lifeblood of ISIS - oil sales and profits, and exposed the US for what it was doing, that any real damage was done to ISIS and i'ts growth halted. And now Trump enters and runs on the platform that he is going to do what Russia is doing -- and many try to spin this. I'm wonder what are the motives of the spinners?
" cut the hesd of ISIS and take their oil." I didn't know ISIS had any oil, I thought t all belonged to Iraq and Syria. None of The Donald's™ save America solutions make the slightest mention or hint about deep state issues. How do you rebuild American sovereignty and character without resisting NWO impulses now deeply embeded in the USSA? The Donald™ might have to consult with his new friend Mr. Putin for suggestions about that topic.
Trump knows his "red meat" audience.
Somebody leaked the ad....
Cpt. Willard: Do you know who's in command here?
Roach: Yeah. [walks away]
Compared to the rest of the f'd up world, America is still pretty great. JUST not as great as it used to be.
I'd rather be on the North American Continent than any other for damn sure. Somewhere where there are lots of trees in Australia would be my only other choice.
New Zealand
. . . where the men are men . . . and the sheep are nervous.
We're taking this Counrty back from the Socialists and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Get in the car you bunch of pussies!
This is hot garbage. I got an advance on the next ad and it includes zombies!

Even zionist jews thought they could control and use Adolf ( and now the Donald) ..... and maybe they did !
“The world is laughing at us, at our stupidity,”
At least Trump is actually acknowledging the snickering when he walks by, but unfortunately he doesn't understand that the world is sitting back laughing (soon to be terrified) that he may actually get the nomination. They're laughing because a blowhard moron is about to be President by being a... blowhard moron.
This outcome couldn't be more obvious. Trump carries 30% of 33% of the country and can't possibly get the vote of the more moderate republicans, they'll just stay home. Clinton is going to wipe the floor with him, and then it's business as usual, which might have been the plan from the beginning.
better trump than that conceited murderous blood thirsty bitch Hitlery, who went and murdered Gaddafi and destroyed Lybia FOR NO REASON other than for her vanity, and then tried to do the same to Syria...these are secular states that never did anything to the US.
what a monster hitlery has become
