If those Trump supporters could read, they'd be pretty upset.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Let's see how committed they are to "Free Speech". Bets on how long until Florida or D.C. bans these ads? (They'll call it "foreign interference").
They'll call it "foreign interference"
Honestly it kind of is. Though in this case I'm all for it.
The precedent has been set. We are playing their game and these are their rules.
The only foreign interference they can accept is israel's
You forgot Russia.
And south african expats who south africa doesn't even want to associate with right now.
The First Amendment is gone.
Trump is openly retaliating against people who criticized him. Our constitution isn’t worth the crumbling paper it’s written on any more.
It never was, ignoring how it enshrined slavery, the system it built relied on people acting in good faith. The idea that elected officials would always work to preserve democracy.
Now it's evident that is not an appropriate system for checks and balances.

As someone who escaped Florida a decade and a half ago: they can't read that shit.
We need to formulate an ideogram that even Florida man can understand.
Sounds like lyrics to a Soul Coughing song. Is M. Doughty around here, somewhere?
They've been running fox news advertising as well.
“At Fox News we’d bet our bottom dollar that we’d do anything to increase our bottom dollar”
I like to imagine that the Murdoch news outlets are exchanging money for other outcomes, like spreading racism and hailing corporate.
How long until they spend more time and effort banning this while yelling about it constantly than ever saying one bad thing about how Russia is infiltrating our country by doing almost the exact same thing.
Que ‘24’ timer sound effect
I didn't know foreign governments could buy ads in America for political purposes.
It's the USA. Everything is for sale. From the wellbeing of your ordinary everyday citizen to the government that supposedly represents.
Yeah that's what made it Mildly Interesting for me. I've seen a few tourism ads here and there but never something like this.
It makes me wonder if China or Russia's bought ad space
Ad space? It looks like they bought the president
I guess bot farms and paid trolls in social media are already doing the trick?
Yes
Wait is that legal?
For now, sure. Why would it not be?
Maybe next week it will be punished by sending someone to a camp.
Ive heard of laws limiting foreign govt propaganda. But i guess this doesn't count.
Neither does AIPAC
From there website:
WE STAND with those who stand with Israel. The AIPAC PAC is a bipartisan, pro-Israel political action committee. It is the largest pro-Israel PAC in America and contributed more resources directly to candidates than any other PAC. 98% of AIPAC-backed candidates won their general election races in 2022.”
WE ENCOURAGE the U.S. government to enact specific policies that create a strong, enduring and mutually beneficial relationship with our ally Israel.
Ha! I thought op used a highlighter to cover the screen, and one could just see through it.
But it's just the design of the machine...
Saw the same on a billboard near Hendersonville, NC. Had to look twice.
In Ohio as well. Too bad Im convinced this state is too stupid to understand anyhow.
They should be more precise: "Trumps tariffs are a tax on your grocery bill". Anyone elses would be, too, yes, but no-one else is that stupid.
Wait until 2028 when tariffs are the moderate Democratic policy.
because Democrats insist on chasing Republicans tail as they both run further into fascist degeneracy.
too bad they didn't hire me on the marketing team. my sign for florida would have just said "fuck you".
Americans are going to take this as a statement that Canada themselves are paying the tariffs.
Mildly funny
Can I share this on "colorslash"? /s
