A new ad released by the Republican National Committee is drawing attention for its montage of Democratic leaders urging violent resistance of their opponents.
There’s Eric Holder’s call this week to kick Republicans, Maxine Water’s to harass Trump officials in public, Nancy Pelosi’s “I just don’t know why there aren’t uprisings” and Hillary Clinton’s, “You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for.”
A commentator at Twitchy chided the Democrats for being able to “accidentally STAR in what could be the most BRUTAL RNC ad ever.”
“All the Left had to do was not be crazy,” the commentary said.

“Watching the mob attack innocent people and destroy property while Democratic leaders tell them to do it speaks volumes,” a Twitchy post said. “Hey, thanks Nancy, Eric, Maxine, Hillary, and Cory!”
On Twitter, “Libertarian Mama” commented: “This ad needs to run nationally, in every district, EVERYWHERE! Should just be played on a loop.”
“TjC” wrote: “When did we stop disagreeing with each other in a civil manner?! I have liberal beliefs and I have conservative beliefs. I would never resort to violence against anyone.
“Someone will get hurt with this mentality, and then there will be retaliation which solves nothing.”
The ad shows Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., pleading with his audience, “Get up in the face of some congresspeople.”
