          Anyway, even though Trump is the Mental Acuity Candidate, if you had a relative his age who tweeted contextless responses to things they saw on TV, you'd insist they get medical help.

          Not only do I bet you could find the exact moment the ad ran on Fox News & match it to the moment he sent the tweet, double or nothing Kayla is in her office practicing the line "the president's is far too busy to be watching TV right now and frankly even asking is insulting."

          I probably would never have seen this ad if Trump had not responded to it.

          That's a crap ad, I get it but it doesn't message early enough and the impression it gives is the lockdown sucks. "Let's get back in the game." Well, he agrees with the president in that one. And they are going to play anyway! Too clever by half, this ad.
