Viciously Anti-LGBTQ DeSantis Ad Ridicules Trump’s Pulse Massacre Speech, Shows Images Of Serial Killers

Mediaite reports:

Ron DeSantis’ Republican presidential campaign posted a deranged ad on Friday that attacked former President Donald Trump and Pride Month using clips from American Psycho and The Wolf of Wall Street. “To wrap up ‘Pride Month,’ let’s hear from the politician who did more than any other Republican to celebrate it…” tweeted the DeSantis War Room, attached to a bizarre and unhinged compilation showing Trump’s ties to the LGBT community.

The video opened with a 2016 clip of Trump telling the RNC, “I will do everything in my power to protect our LGBTQ citizens,” as a rainbow pride flag was edited over the top. The video went on to show clips of necrophiliac-serial killer-rapist Patrick Bateman from American Psycho, and gangster Tommy Shelby from Peaky Blinders. Finally, at the end of the video, a drawing of DeSantis as an alligator with reptile eyes and spiky teeth could be seen.

Lots of issues with this video.

Chiefly, the opening line from Trump saying “I’ll do everything in my power to protect our LGBTQ citizens” as if that’s a huge hit?

Is DeSantis opposed to protecting LGBTQ citizens?

I get the message they were going for, but damn this isn’t it. https://t.co/4yWatzMIMJ

The DeSantis message is kind of amazing: “You might have thought Trump is a bigot, but occasionally he seems to say non-bigoted things. I’ll be all bigotry all the time!” https://t.co/CYZblJAwgY

This ad includes a brag that someone said his policies “literally threaten trans existence.” https://t.co/VtdWA7jaYP

Wait, wasn’t this Trump’s speech after the horror shooting of the pulse nightclub shooting?

Way to use the murder of those people to prop up your candidate. https://t.co/LUua1pqrNZ
