This is the infamous Willie Horton ad, produced in 1988 by a GOP PAC, as an attack on "soft on crime" Mass. Gov. Dukakis. It was viewed at the time as shockingly racist, and its creator, Lee Atwater, would apologize for it on his deathbed a few years later.

What Trump is doing is very bad. But I want to push back against some of the numbers here.
ICE did not hire 10,000 agents. It WANTS to. That it keeps running ads suggests it is struggling. And when it does, it seems to cannibalize local police, who don't like that.
More significantly:

"(Officers) refuse to recognize local or court authority. A judge says you can’t arrest journalists. Watch us. A judge says we have to wear badges. No. State law says we can’t drive around in unmarked vans? Too bad. Elected officials who want to see what is going on should prepare to be arrested."

this is a key point that i'm seeing a lot of casual observers miss as they call for boycotting paramount (sure, fine) & note that weiss lacks the skill to run cbs (correct.) the project is to dismantle the news media. traditional business metrics don't really apply when the goal is destruction.
Installing someone like Bari Weiss as the head of a major news organization isn’t even about profit or longevity. In effect it’s about continuing to shrink the traditional news industry smaller and smaller and weaker and weaker and less and less journalism based until it ceases to exist

The rebranding of reactionary gender and biological essentialism as “heterodox and challenging ideas to which liberal students must be exposed” is one of the greatest achievements of our stupid era. Congratulations to the reactionary centrists who helped make it happen - you dupes, you utter dolts.
