* Press release…

Congressman Mike Bost’s campaign this week has released its fifth television advertisement of the 2024 election cycle. The ad, titled “Bost Results,” will air district-wide on cable, broadcast, and satellite television, as well as on streaming services.

The ad

Script

PRESIDENT TRUMP: “Mike Bost fights every day for the hard-working people of Illinois.”

ANNOUNCER: “That’s why National Right to Life endorsed Mike and called him a courageous fighter.

The NRA’s endorsement says Bost is a proud defender of the 2nd Amendment.

And the Farm Bureau calls him one of the strongest protectors of farmers and rural America.”

PRESIDENT TRUMP: “A vote for Mike is really a continuation to Make America Great Again.”

BOST: “I’m Mike Bost and I approve this message.”

* Meanwhile, in the mailboxes…

  1. Geez. I guess no one will question whether the mailer is AI or not.

    As to the TV ad, if a democrat were to run, that would be an easy ad to attack - the continuation of MAGA line is the core issue. But since it is only Bost v. Bailey, having Trump’s voice over is very helpful.

    And yet, something still tells me Bailey could win if he plays this correctly.

  2. They think Darrin Bailey has a suit?

  3. What’s silliest to me is how much they slimmed down Trump.

  4. A+ for the district.

  5. “As to the TV ad, if a democrat were to run, that would be an easy ad to attack”

    Um, that would be a worthless attack in our district though it may garner attention and money from outside the district.

  6. Grade A work.

    Trump, babies, guns, farmers, cops, white people.

    Speaks to his base. Perfection.

  7. A for its target audience.

    I love the ad referencing right to life then, without a trace of irony, touting his 2A bona fides

  8. If that negative attack sticks to him, Bailey could be done in politics once and for all. That’d be a nice outcome as far as I am concerned. One mailer isn’t enough to tag him as a Trump traitor, but I like where Bost is going with it. Well played.

  9. A+ career politician has endorsements
    Bost want the anti trump democrats voting for Bailey

  10. Cornfields, guns and camo and controlling women. A+ ad for his rural MAGA constituents.

    Comment by Baloneymous Friday, Mar 8, 24 @ 12:05 pm

  11. c+ or B- grade.

    It is better than Bost’s earlier television spots which were totally cheap and generic.

    Comment by Gravitas Friday, Mar 8, 24 @ 12:24 pm

  12. So Bost left the SOTU speech last night at the point where Dark Brandon said the state of the union was good and getting better. What was he afraid of? Calling Darren Bailey.

  13. F-

    If you’re 2A then your NOT “pro-life”.

    Comment by Jerry Friday, Mar 8, 24 @ 2:54 pm

  14. Trump will like they made him look so slim but look at the size of those fingers. Trump doesn’t like small hand references.

    And Bailey running or dressed like a professional is a toss up of improbabilities.

    Comment by Lurker Friday, Mar 8, 24 @ 3:39 pm

  15. Rate D for disingenuous.
    That can’t be Darren Bailey. There’s no sleeveless vest, no rolled up shirt sleeves, and no toothy grin.
