EVERYTHING is sponsored. If it comes from a candidate, it’s sponsored. If it’s sponsored, it’s PROPAGANDA.

I’m honestly not sure what’s left to debate here. Trumps “ads” are out & out falsehoods, lies, fabrications if you will.

Incorrect information edited into a narrative designed to generate an emotion, typically fear, that calls on you to act by voting for an anthropomorphic circus peanut. You know? Lies.

That picture is a picture. It has no words. It might tell a lie, but it is not a fabrication to generate fear. It’s a bunch of goons trying to look relatable enough to vote for.

Will they lie if elected? Yes. The difference is they aren’t lying to my face directly while trying to pit me against my neighbors in an attempt to drum up hostilities. The other one is doing that.
