Edit: Have to give credit where credit is due, CNN refused to air it in the first place.

Good to see CNN actually made a good decision and refused to air this deplorable, fear-mongering, deceptive advertisement. NBC, Fox, and Facebook lost their credibility long ago.

No matter how often Trump and his U.S. White Evangelical followers lie, they will never succeed in silencing truth.
