His ad team* PAC seem to be inspired by Patrick Swayze’s finest hour. That’s the 1984 classic, Red Dawn. (What else could qualify for that palm?) Anyway, whatever else it is this ain’t exactly pandering to the GOP base.
Again: it’s time for UK parties to emulate the cousins’ approach to these things. Granted, the Jerry Bruckheimer style might not work for British political advertising but surely stuff borrrowed from Brief Encounter or the Ealing Comedies might do the trick?
*My mistake. Thanks to readers for pointing it out.
