Veterans have joined the nationwide resistance against Donald Trump.
In a new TV ad aired during the morning news shows Monday, the group VoteVets takes aim directly at Trump, blasting him for his efforts to repeal Obamacare and limit Muslim immigration to the United States.
The powerful ad features an Afghanistan war veteran, who lost a leg in combat, working out. As he does weighted squats, he addresses the ‘so called president’ in a voice-over.
“Look, you lost the popular vote. You’re having trouble drawing a crowd. And your approval rating keeps sinking. But kicking thousands of my fellow veterans off their health insurance by killing the Affordable Care Act and banning Muslims won’t help. And that’s not the America I sacrificed for,” he says. “You want to be a legitimate president, sir? Then act like one.”
The powerful ad quickly took the internet by storm and within minutes after the ad made its debut, Trump tweeted: “Any negative polls are fake news.”
