Trump shocks with racist new ad before midterms

By The Assam Tribune

WASHINGTON, Nov 1: In the most racially charged national political ad in 30 years, US President Donald Trump and the Republican Party have accused Democrats of plotting to help Central American "invaders" overrun the nation with police killers, CNN reported on Thursday.

The new spot, tweeted by the President on Wednesday five days before the midterm elections, is the most extreme step yet in the most inflammatory closing argument of any campaign in recent memory.

The ad -- produced for the Trump campaign -- features Luis Bracamontes, a Mexican man who had previously been deported but returned to the US and was convicted in February in the killing of two California deputies.

"I'm going to kill more cops soon," a grinning Bracamontes is shown saying in court as captions flash across the screen reading "Democrats let him into our country. Democrats let him stay". - IANS
