Donald Trump, First Family Attacked In New Political Ads
Two new political ads are trending after they dragged not only President Donald Trump but his family—specifically, his son, Eric.
The first ad, released by Really American, led to the term #TuckerDunksTrump trending on social media, as the clip features Fox News correspondent and host Tucker Carlson speaking about the scary situations facing the United States—but his comments are spliced with comments made by the President himself and images of headlines and more which seem to make it seem as though Carlson is actually calling the President an authoritarian.
NEW VIDEO: "It's long been considered out of bounds to question a persons patriotism. But in the face of all of this the conclusion can't be avoided: These people actually hate America. At the same time, they desperately want to control America" -Tucker Carlson #TuckerDunksTrump pic.twitter.com/hTsgH3mVEt

As Carlson says that politicians are “effectively gods” the President can be heard calling himself “The Chosen One.” Similarly, later in the clip, as Carlson states that Americans are shocked by Totalitarianism because it’s “all around us,” the President is heard stating “nobody disobeys my orders” and “well, I have the ultimate authority.”
Among other things, the ad also discusses how the COVID-19 Pandemic has played out and how Americans were lied to about how serious it was—as the President is once again seen commenting that the situation was controlled.
Several people delighted in the trend that popped up on Twitter as a result of the ad, especially because Carlson worked for Fox News and was not actually referring to the President during his monologue.
Funny thing is, this is so much closer to the truth than anything Tucker Carlson ever said in context. #TuckerDunksTrump pic.twitter.com/mwNx3tisMZ

The GOP / Fox News propaganda machine ALWAYS accuses our side of doing exactly what they’re doing.
Turnabout is fair play. Their words highlight their deep hypocrisy. #TuckerDunksTrump #DemCast

If Tucker Carlson was HONEST, he could constantly be critical of trump and his own fake news bubble.

Meanwhile, a second ad, by Meidas Touch, critiques Eric Trump and got the term #ByeEric trending as well.

Retweet to help Eric Trump continue to humiliate himself. #ByeEric pic.twitter.com/koxfhZmUkA
In their ad, the President’s second son is overheard during an interview stating that the First Amendment (which includes a Free Press) was in danger, stated that there were people who were crazy spouting conspiracy theories, the economy was in free-fall and stating that people were hypocrites who lived in beautiful houses and only took for themselves.
As he speaks, his father is seen in the clip reiterating that he called the “fake news” media “the enemy of the people” and discussed his plans to shut down social media sites like Tiktok, congratulating Qanon conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Green, and images of the Trump family in a lavish residence as their organization’s finances were questioned are also shown.
In addition, as he refers to people as being part of “the swamp,” the latest allegations against Steve Bannon are referenced as well.
Much like the first ad, this one also led to delight from those critical of the first family as well.
Eric’s done a really nice job here of highlighting all the ways that his father & the GOP are dangers to democracy.

Meidas Touch also previously put out other ads—two saying #ByeIvanka to the President’s daughter, as well as one saying #ByeDonJr to his other son, Donald Trump Jr.
The President, who is known for taking to Twitter himself to speak out against his critics, has not yet responded to the ads.
