Watch Jimmy Kimmel's hilariously plausible Donald Trump campaign ad
"Ordinarily, people running for president tell us what they will do if they win," said Jimmy Kimmel on Thursday's Kimmel Live. Donald Trump? Not so much. "Apart from his plan to build a wall to keep the Mexicans out, we know absolutely nothing about what he is planning to do as president." To highlight Trump's "much broader approach," the Kimmel crew came up with an ad for Trump, and it is comically, perhaps sadly, plausible. Example: "Donald Trump: A man with a vision for America. Not a specific vision, a great vision, the best vision." You can watch the rest below. Peter Weber
