Shockingly Vulgar Anti-Trump Ads Question The Donald’s Manhood And More [Video]

Even as America becomes increasingly accustomed to ugly, biting, and painfully personal political campaigns full of unabashed negativity that often focuses on the politician rather than policy, a new ad campaign targeting presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump still manages to shock with its vulgarity.

And the ad campaign wasn’t even put together by the “opposing team” of Democrats. Instead, the four-video series of anti-Trump ads were developed by Bob Gardner, a “longtime Republican ad man,” in an effort to “unsell” Donald Trump’s presumptive GOP presidential nomination, Politico reports.

And the new ad campaign is shockingly vulgar because it is a purely concentrated effort to hit Donald Trump exactly where it hurts the most.

His manhood.

Of course, it was Donald Trump himself who arguably made his manhood part of the campaign when he responded to former candidate Marco Rubio’s insinuation that the size of Donald Trump’s reportedly diminutive hands has a direct correlation to the size of another part of his anatomy. Not a candidate to let any sort of insult slide, Donald Trump became the first presidential candidate in history to stand on stage during a nationally televised political debate and assure America that size was not a concern.

“Look at those hands, are they small hands?” Donald Trump said, back in March, raising them for viewers to see. “And [Rubio] referred to my hands — ‘if they’re small, something else must be small.’ I guarantee you there’s no problem. I guarantee.”

In direct reference to that, one of the four ads is a 30-second spot featuring a young woman doing yoga and speaking rather frankly about Donald Trump and his “small hands.”

The point that is attempting to be made in the ad is a valid one — it addresses Donald Trump’s inflammatory rhetoric when it comes to his views on immigrants and Muslims. But it uses such obvious innuendos and engages in such open vulgarity that even those who are adamantly opposed to a Donald Trump presidency may find the ad objectionable.

“I like macho guys — take-charge, competent guys — guys with big hands. Real men. But real men don’t go around dissing Muslims and Mexicans… they’re not bullies. And real men don’t talk about their size. Guys like Donald Trump who brag about how big they are? You can’t be president, Donny boy. You just don’t measure up.”

Watch the ad embedded below.

The other three ads in the series of four don’t rely on references to the size of Donald’s manhood in order to make a point. One of the ads shows four poker buddies playing a friendly hand of cards. One of the men asks the rest what they think of Trump because, personally, he likes how Donald is “not politically correct.”

“He’s not ‘correct’ at all,” another of the men bites back.

The third of the four ads features a baby showing concern over his dad, who happens to support Trump. The baby compares Trump to his “selfish” 4-year-old brother and says that he doesn’t want to have to tell his own children that their grandpa voted for Trump.

The final ad manages to keep it clean, as well. Featuring two women in a diner, Trump is called “vain” and “thin-skinned,” and it’s inferred that a Trump presidency would be “even worse” than the current administration.

“We can do better than that,” one of the women says.

Gardener, the Republican creator of the ads, said that they were originally intended to air in California when Republicans still believed that it would be the site of a final GOP match-up between Trump and Texas Senator Ted Cruz. But when Cruz dropped out of the race after Trump clinched Indiana, Gardener decided to put the ads on YouTube for all to see.

However, Gardner admits that putting the ads out will probably not have much of an effect on Trump’s nomination as the GOP candidate for the general election.

“This year has been so unpredictable that I hate to hazard a guess,” said Gardner. “I and most others have been wrong at every turn.”

What do you think of the ads? Will they have any likely impact on the Trump campaign? And as for the “yoga” ad, do you think it crosses the line from humorous to vulgar? Let us know!
