President Donald Trump films a powerful commercial — viewers react quite strongly to the ad
July 21, 2017
President Donald Trump on Thursday released a 3-minute, 27-second ad to promote his "America First" agenda, and the response to the video was tremendous.
Shared on his Twitter account, Trump wrote, "I am asking all citizens to believe in yourselves, believe in your future, and believe, once more, in America. #AmericaFirst."
Filled with montages of Trump making speeches in the U.S. and across the world, the video features a heavy focus on the American manufacturing industry, myriad American flags, and infrastructure promises.
About the video, he wrote, "America will be empowered by our aspirations, not burdened by our fears; inspired by the future, not bound by the failures of the past; & guided by our vision, not blinded by our doubts."
"I am asking all members of Congress to join me in dreaming big, and bold, and daring things for our country. I am asking everyone watching tonight to seize this moment, believe in yourselves, believe in your future, and believe once more in America," Trump concluded as the narrator of the ad.
See the commercial in its entirety in the video below, and a sampling of Twitter reactions to Trump's video.

On the flip side, there were as many Twitter users who were against the ad, and only used it to fuel their fire against the Trump administration.
We believe in ourselves. That's why we want you gone. 👋🏻 pic.twitter.com/jzDOQR35b1

At minimum, 64% want you to leave. So on behalf of them and the world, bite me. We as one are better than you will ever be.

We believe in the power of impeachment. Go recuse and pardon yourself from the presidency. Thanks.
