Well, a Veterans group, Vote Vets, put out a new campaign ad for Trump
I have to admit, it's a good one. If you are like him, you may consider voting for him.
Take a look to see which side you are on;

“For the 244 years since we declared our independence, one name has stood as the very definition of the word traitor to the US military,”
“Benedict Arnold sold out our troops during our fight for freedom.
He tried to sell West Point to the enemy, before defecting to the other side.”
“No one has betrayed those in uniform like Donald Trump.”
“He consorts with a foreign enemy, who puts bounties on the heads of American troops.
He takes the word of Putin over the best American military intelligence.”
“To Donald Trump, Russian bounties on American troops is just another hoax.
This July 4th Benedict Arnold can step aside ... because Benedict Donald is America’s number one traitor.”

Four years later, Republican senators admit, "yes, Trump conspired with the Russians"

It's a red-letter, if sad, day on the hypocrisy beat when after three years a Republican-majority Senate Intelligence Committee comes out with a 1,000-page report finding there was a whole lot of direct contact between the Trump 2016 campaign with Russian intelligence operators.
You know, the opposite of what Donald Trump has argued forcefully over and over again is a hoax.
Even Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), the new committee chairman, says while it does not represent "collusion" — a conclusion that prompted Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) to say Rubio was not reading the same report he did — he did acknowledge a whole lot of interaction between Team Trump and Team Russia.
Of course, Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III also would not put the "collusion" label on myriad interactions with Russians, for different reasons, to avoid a political conclusion. That allowed Trump, Attorney General William P. Barr and supporters of the president, including the convicted Roger Stone and former campaign chair Paul Manafort, to repeat that lack of labeling as a launch point to investigate the investigators.
But the Intelligence Committee did "painted a stark portrait of a Trump campaign eager to accept help from a foreign power in 2016, and a candidate closely involved in the effort," said NBC News.
Here's a link to the report itself, which highlighted some previously unreported evidence, including three allegations of potentially compromising material relating to Trump's private trips to Russia that were unconnected to the dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele, at which Rubio took aim once again.
The committee found that Trump's team knew ahead of time that emails stolen from the Democratic National Committee by Russian intelligence agents would appear in Wikileaks, and worked with Wikileaks to produce an "October surprise" toward winning that election.
Trump repeatedly has denied this, and has denied discussing the emails with Stone, who worked with Wikileaks. He lied to Mueller and to us, and has whined about it for four years. Now, Trump says he wants to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin again before November and we worry that not enough has been done to forestall new election interference.
The findings
Specifically, the committee said it found evidence that Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort may have been connected to the Russian operation to steal and leak Democratic emails. If that had been proven in court, it would have constituted "collusion," by any definition, but no such charge ever was brought. Manafort was convicted of fraud and tax charges unrelated to Russia.
Still, the report insisted that the Trump transition exposed itself to Russian influence, naming names and labeling the operatives as intelligence agents. "Russian and other countries took advantage of the Transition Team's inexperience, transparent opposition to Obama administration policies and Trump's desire to deepen ties with Russia…"
After three years of investigation, the committee "laid out an extensive web of contacts between Trump campaign advisers and Russian government officials and other Russians, including some with ties to the country's intelligence services," said The New York Times.
According to the report, among other things, Russian spies worked to blame it all on Ukrainian officials and spies, identifying Manafort business associate Konstantin Kilimnik, a Russian intelligence officer.....

Another lying rat off the sinking ship
Kellyanne Conway announced that she will be stepping down from the Trump crime scene at the end of the month
to.....ahem.... focus on her children. In keeping with his how he does .....business, undoubtedly, she will be replaced by a younger, better looking, more prolific liar.
One of her daughters is pushing for emancipation.
I can only imagine the arguments that ensue in that family, between Kellyanne and George Conway,
one of the founders of The Lincoln Project, republicans against Trump. He too will be focusing more time on the family.
Meanwhile the country seeks it's own emancipation in January from the tyrant wannabe currently in the White House.

Cuban American's Moving Speech Warning Americans Against "Taking the Democrat's communist pill."
Maximo Alverez gave a powerful and moving speech last night at the Republican National Convention warning Americans not to let the Democrat's socialism and communism take over our country. Just one of the many outstanding speeches from the convention opposing the Democrat's lawless, anti-American, anti-freedom agenda. More speeches to come tonight!
