This is the brutal attack ad that awaits any Republican who votes for Trumpcare
The American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), the nations largest seniors group, is running a brutal radio ad that could be a preview for whats in store for members of Congress who vote for Trumpcare.
The AARP ad, which ran on Thursday on Washington D.C.s WTOP, opens with the kind of dramatic music usually heard in an attack ad.
Sometimes a bad deal is just a bad deal. And when it comes to the health care bill in Congress, a bad deal just got worse, the narrator tells listeners in the D.C. metro area, which includes a swing district in Virginia represented by Republican Barbara Comstock.
While the ad ostensibly thanks Comstock for opposing the bill, it is clearly a shot across the bow for those that support it.
Comstock, already gearing up for a strong challenge in next years election, announced her opposition to the original version of the bill hours before Speaker Paul Ryan pulled the bill from the floor.
