Trump Party repugs, Party of Fake News.....do they all have to lie and deceive like their new Master, the sleazebag in the white house?

Attorneys for President Barack Obama are sending a cease-and-desist letter demanding that South Carolina broadcast stations stop airing a misleading ad from a pro-Donald Trump super PAC that makes it sound like Obama is criticizing his former vice president, Joe Biden.

The ad is part of $250,000 in spending by The Committee to Defend the President. It misuses a snippet from an audio version of Obama’s book “Dreams from My Father” to make it sound as though Obama is criticizing Biden’s support of the black community. He’s actually recalling complaints he’s heard about politicians generally.

“This despicable ad is straight out of the Republican disinformation playbook, and it’s clearly designed to suppress turnout among minority voters in South Carolina by taking President Obama’s voice out of context and twisting his words to mislead viewers,” said Obama spokeswoman Katie Hill in a statement.

The statement said Obama’s office is asking TV stations to pull the ad “and stop playing into the hands of bad actors who seek to sow division and confusion among the electorate.”

The GOPutiNazis have only just begun. Who does this ad help? How is each candidate being defined this far out? Who’s sewing discord in the Democratic Party?

The GOP Fascists will be voting in Open and Modified Primaries and Caucuses. An untold # of them have changed their party registration in closed states. Time to go on offense, folks, before it’s too late.

Yeah, they only have a slim chance of this actually going through and even then. They'll most likely adjust the add to change it a little and then it will be right back out into the airwaves.

Nothing is really wrong with it now as it sits either way, so I don't really think the court will bow down here. No matter how hard the democrats try and cry about it.

Hell, especially after all they got away with during 2016, going all the way up to the present day. They really don't have much room to talk.

That's right kids, if you can't beat your opponent legitimately.
Just call them Nazis... as if acting pathetic wasn't bad enough.

The "Trump is a fascist" ship has literally sank every time that it's launched. Give it a rest already.

Sue them, like Trumps team is attempting?
