Former President Donald Trump has been consistent on his America First messaging for decades, a Trump campaign ad reveals, showcasing the former president’s unmatched commitment to putting America and the American people first.
The ad, first obtained by Breitbart News on Tuesday, puts Trump’s past commitment to America on full display. It begins with a throwback of Trump, stating during an interview more than 40 years ago, in 1983, that he would “dedicate my life to this country.”
The video shows various clips from the past, displaying Trump’s consistency on putting America first and championing the Make America Great Again movement before it was even a thing.
