Pro-Trump Super PAC Launches Ad Campaign Which Claims Hillary Supports White Supremacy [AUDIO]

Buzzfeed reports:



Great America PAC’s ad campaign — first shared with BuzzFeed News — will air in certain media markets in Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina, Florida, Michigan, Wisconsin, New Hampshire, Illinois and Minnesota for a week starting tomorrow. The group pointed to its inclusion of Minnesota, where the Real Clear Politics polling average shows Hillary Clinton up by 4, as evidence that they are expanding the battleground map for Trump. The involvement in a few other states such as Illinois is to boost Republicans down-ballot as well.

The radio ad takes several lines out of context: it opens by saying it’s a message from President Obama. It then plays the audio of Obama talking about “plantation politics” and describes voting a straight Democratic ticket to selling “our soul for a Christmas turkey.” The passage is from Obama’s audiobook “Dreams of My Father,” which he narrated. In the book, Obama is actually quoting Smitty, a barber, as saying those things.

The ad closes with a clip of Hillary Clinton of saying: “I believe in white supremacy.” The clip is from a speech she gave on her opposition to the school voucher program. She was describing a hypothetical scenario in which a parent wants to send their child to the “School of the Church of the White Supremacists.” The group has spent $9.2 million on behalf of Trump so far in 2016.
