The New Republic has the deets on this jaw-dropping campaign ad it called “possibly the most distasteful, cringe-worthy political ad of 2024 to date”:
“I have another dream!” begins the skin-crawling video, which was posted to X (formerly Twitter) on Friday. “Yes, it is me, Martin Luther King. I came back from the dead to say something, as I was saying, I have another dream—that Anthony Hudson will be Michigan 8th district’s next congressman.
There are buildings with Trump's name on them. However, tenants have fought to strip the former President's name from their buildings in some cases. In New York, a judge ruled that residents of Trump Place have the right to remove Lumpy's name from the building if enough of them approve of it.
