Trump’s Public Service Announcement: ‘Love Me’
Taxpayers are funding a campaign-style ad for the president.
President Trump's latest campaign-style ad, titled "Love Me," features grainy footage of the president followed by a series of images promoting his policies. The 30-second commercial, paid for by the U.S. Government, emphasizes themes of American pride and patriotism, repeating the phrase "Love me … Love me … Love me …" throughout.
The ad has been airing on Fox News, Newsmax, and the White House's YouTube page. White House spokespersons claim the ad is an educational and patriotic public service announcement, but Democrats have criticized it as a form of government propaganda. The ad's background music, by JMSN, has also drawn attention due to its use in social media editing.
