Trump ad flub bemoans 'country gone to hell' — while he was in control

A new Donald Trump ad that blared his familiar message that the U.S. has “gone to hell” laid blame at his own feet.

The two-minute commercial which hit airwaves during Sunday’s Philadelphia Eagles game showed images taken during the Trump administration while bemoaning the state of the nation, Politico reported.

The advert showed an image of the aftermath of violent protests following the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis — a photo that was taken while Trump was in charge of the country.

Politico said Trump’s campaign made excuses for including the image when asked about it Sunday.

“The riot imagery shows the same radical leftists that embrace the chaos in Kamala's broken world view,” the campaign said in a statement.

“President Trump will fix our cities, make the nation safe, and stand up to those whose ideology says this abhorrent action is OK.”

In another ad mixup over the weekend, Politico reported that in a post on X Trump included images that actually showed Canada rather than the United States.
