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.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
