trump's Gift to Democrats

Democrats have a unique opportunity in coming elections.

trump has generated an astonishing amount of hatred and disgust among the majority of American voters.

Thus, negatively themed campaign ads will be effective in the coming United States Congressional elections.

And, there is both a negative and a positive slant which can be inserted around the trump theme.

Here are some hypothetical examples around different themes which resonate today.

Each is based on a fictional Democrat - John Garcia - running against a fictional Republican incumbent for the United States Senate - Bob Smith (R).

1. COWARDICE

NEGATIVE SLANT -

Incumbent Republican Bob Smith is a coward - he failed to stand and protest against the Alt-right and Neo-Nazis supported by trump.

POSITIVE SLANT -

As your Senator, I John Garcia will STAND to oppose Neo Nazi's and Alt Right thugs, I am not afraid of them.

2. PEDOPHILIA

NEG - Incumbent Republican Bob Smith FAILED to oppose child molesters and pedophiles - he even supported Roy Moore'e election bid.

POS - As your Senator, I John Garcia will EXPOSE AND PUNISH anyone who abuses children. Anyone.

3. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

NEG - Incumbent Republican Bob Smith supported trump's wife beating staff members - he was silent and did not raise any objection

POS - As your Senator, I John Garcia will support criminal prosecution of domestic violence perpetrators.

4. RUSSIAN AGENTS, TRAITORS

NEG - Incumbent Republican Bob Smith supported trump's statements about Putin and Russia. He also has lobbied to remove United States sanctions against Russian criminal oligarchs.

POS - As your Senator, I John Garcia will support sanctions on Russian oligarchs and protect our country from criminals.

5. CORRUPTION

NEG - Incumbent Republican Bob Smith said nothing about trump's obvious corruption and he has been accused of insider trading on information he received while sitting in the Senate for his personal benefit.

POS - As your Senator, I vow to fight against our culture of political corruption.

As a beginning, I will NOT accept any campaign contribution from any corporation or lobbyist.
