    wonder how those people fired to save money to pay for this ad campaign praising dear leader in capitals worldwide will feel


    now we are using taxpayer dollars to promote pro trump propaganda...sounds familiar to something that happened in a country in europe around 85 years ago

    Kristi Noem Says $200 Million DHS Ad Campaign Thanking Trump Was His Idea

    NATIONAL HARBOR, Maryland - The Department of Homeland Security has budgeted up to $200 million to run anti-immigrant ads in the United States and overseas that repeatedly thank President Donald Trump for leading an immigration crackdown. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Friday night that these ads were Trump's idea, and during the administration's transition to power, the president asked her to star in ads thanking him "for closing the border."
    ..........
    The ad campaign amounts to an extremely expensive endeavor, with the bill footed by the American taxpayer, to launch an international propaganda blitz to scare off migrants and to flatter Trump on television. On Friday, Trump's DHS secretary entertained the CPAC high-roller audience with her account of how Trump orchestrated the whole thing.

    For his agenda it actually seems like a good use of money. Not saying I agree with it. But if their goal is to let the world know you aren't welcome here why not advertise that globally? Sure it makes us looks like giant clowns, but that's just what we do these days.

    Noem had to mention it was “Trump’s idea” (make videos or else).

    From article in op, “flatter Trump on television”

    For $200M, they should make a slick video like below for Trump.
