Pro-Trump ads I saw on OpEdNews

It's kinda strange, but OpEdNews, a mostly progressive website, has lots of ads from Donald Trump.

Here's a compilation of some of the display ad images I saw on OpEdNews over the last week or two:

I wonder how many readers of OpEdNews click on the ads.

The ad about George Soros reminds me that some conservatives I speak with are convinced Soros is part of some vast left-wing conspiracy to take over the world.

I clicked on one of the ads and was sent to https://action.donaldjtrump.com/msm-media-accountability-survey/. It has an icon "Trump/Pence, Make America Great Again."

Fineprint at the bottom of the page says, "By providing your phone number, you are consenting to receive calls and SMS/MMS messages, including autodialed and automated calls and texts, to that number from each of the participating committees in the Trump Make America Great Again Committee, Donald J. Trump for President Inc. and the Republican National Committee. Msg & data rates may apply. Participating committees' terms & conditions/privacy policies apply: 22-info.com/ (DJTP); 10-info.com/ (RNC)." Also: "Paid for by the Trump Make America Great Again Committee, a joint fundraising committee authorized by and composed of Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. and the Republican National Committee."

It has the following survey questions. (I've omitted most of the response options: Yes, No, No Opinion.)

Do you believe that the mainstream media actually cares about working Americans?

Do you believe that the mainstream media has unfairly reported on our presidency?

Do you trust MSNBC to fairly report on our presidency?

Do you believe that the mainstream media does not do their due diligence fact-checking before publishing stories on the Trump administration?

Do you believe that the media unfairly reported on Trump's executive order temporarily restricting people entering our country from nations compromised by radical Islamic terrorism?

Were you aware that a poll was released revealing that a majority of Americans actually supported our temporary restriction executive order?

Do you believe that political correctness has created biased news coverage of both illegal immigration and radical Islamic terrorism?

Do you believe that the media uses slurs rather than facts to attack conservative stances on issues like border control, religious liberties, and ObamaCare?

Do you believe that the media purposely tries to pit Republicans against each other in order to help elect Democrats?

Do you believe that the mainstream media has been too eager to jump to conclusions about rumored stories?

Do you believe that if Republicans were obstructing Obama like Democrats are doing to Trump, the mainstream media would attack Republicans?

Do you agree with the President's decision to break with tradition by giving lesser known reporters and bloggers the chance to ask the Press Secretary questions?

Do you agree with President Trump's media strategy to cut through the media's noise and deliver our message straight to the people?

Do you believe that our Party should spend more time and resources holding the mainstream media accountable?
