Meant to post this yesterday, obviously. Just never quite got around to it.
This below video was listed as the only honest political video out there. Sure enough, it does feel far more real than most political ads out there, which tend either to give a far too idealized version of the candidate, or focus on some horror story which will inevitably come true if "the other guy" wins the election. Both styles tend to be actively misleading and dishonest.
Wish that politics in the United States these days was far more honest, and a whole lot less insulting, than it tends to be. It really makes you wonder what we have become as a nation, doesn't it?
Yet, my personal belief is that this is our fault, collectively. How can it be otherwise? We get the government that we deserve. When too many of us focus only on business and buy into get rich quick schemes from scam artists, how can we then act surprised when government corruption at the highest levels are at astonishing, record high levels?
Then, there is this whole rematch between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Frankly, I believe that they are both astonishingly mediocre. At best, most of us seem to agree that one is slightly less evil or bad than the other. It feels impossible to me to really think that out of a country with over 330 million people, that these two mediocrities are the best that we can do.
Anyway, this political ad at least gave me a laugh after watching it, which is more than either Trump or Biden has ever done for me. Take a look and see if you don't agree:
