If Trump pardons all the insurrectionists...?

Some ambitious reporters should hunt them down and find out if any of them blame Donald Trump for their time behind bars? If a few are pissed off because they thought Trump wanted them to invade the Capitol and "stop the steal", then that should be made into an attack ad and run all the way thru the next election.

Just my opinion.

Or feel a loyalty to him?

But if they can find 3 or 4 that felt like Trump deserted them by not pardoning them before he left office, then that would make a great Democratic ad.

6. Think it's time to move on from that period. We ran many ads on Jan 6th in 2024, and it didn't gain us any votes

The economy?

Abortion?

Women's rights?

Why should we run from the truth?

10. Mid-terms and 2028, healthcare reform, etc. Running against trump for 4 years is prescription for failure.
