Cringey Ad Promoting 'Kids Guide To President Trump' Blasted For Trying To 'Brainwash' Children

Cringey Ad Promoting 'Kids Guide To President Trump' Blasted For Trying To 'Brainwash' Children

An ad for a children's book called 'The Kids Guide to President Trump' has reportedly been airing on the aggressively pro-Trump broadcast network Newsmax.

The internet couldn't help but gawk at the strange, almost propaganda-like video, which was aimed at teaching children to love former President Trump early in their lives.


You can see the ad here:



The book is published by the education company Learn Our History, which is operated by Evangelical Christian pastor, former Arkansas Governor and ardent Trump supporter Mike Huckabee.



The clip's over-the-top script reads:

" Parents and grandparents, great news! Mike Huckabee's education company wants to help your family to celebrate President Trump and all he's accomplished as our president. For a limited time, you can getThe Kids Guide to President Trump for free."
"This fun kids' guide will help your kids learn all about the president's greatest achievements. What's more, it's part of a very special gift bundle that includes a free kids' magazine and free video lesson, too. To learn more and order the Kids Guide to President Trump gift bundle, just visit FreeTrumpGuide.com."


Twitter thought the ad was equal parts hilarious and terrifying.



Many described what they were seeing as nauseating.


Teaching one's children to love and admire a twice-impeached former President is undoubtedly strange behavior.


Mike Huckabee may be proud of his newest book, but the reviews online don't seem encouraging.

Even Trump's NASA Director Had To Set Kim Kardashian Straight After She Said The Moon Landing 'Didn't Happen'

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy—who is also NASA's Acting Administrator—issued the weirdest fact-check ever when he corrected reality star Kim Kardashian after she revealed herself to be a moon landing conspiracist.

Conspiracy theorists have long alleged the moon landing was fabricated by NASA in what they claim was an elaborate hoax—and Kardashian certainly made it clear where she stands in a video speaking to co-star Sarah Paulson on the set of the new Hulu drama All’s Fair.

MAGA singer Kid Rock was called out by Loretta Claiborne, the Chief Inspiration Officer of the Special Olympics, after he used the "r-word"—a known ableist slur—to describe his Halloween costume this year.

Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, was speaking with Fox News host Jesse Watters when he donned a face mask and said he'd be going as a "r**ard" for Halloween. Watters had guessed he was dressed as Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who spearheaded the nation's COVID-19 pandemic response.
