Trump's very first TV ad uses phony film.

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-m...-trumps-first-tv-ad-shows-migrants-southern-/

In a new television ad -- his campaign’s first -- Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump shows footage of dozens of people swarming over a border fence. But the footage isn’t as it seems.

About halfway through the ad, a narrator says of Trump, "He'll stop illegal immigration by building a wall on our southern border that Mexico will pay for." Video footage shows dozens of people streaming across the border, as if they were ants fleeing an anthill.

The clear suggestion is that the footage is of the "southern border" between the United States and Mexico. But it’s not -- it’s 5,000 miles away, in a small Spanish enclave on the mainland of Morocco.

So Trump is the only politician who has ever used b-roll in a political ad?
 
Are the Mexican's going to pay for the wall on the Morrocan border too?
 
Wow, its like you guys have finally discovered the concept of "b-roll".

In Trump's case, short for "bullshit on a roll." And his fans think it's yummy.

So no other politicians in any other ads, have ever used B-roll?

Is B-roll your slang for lies?

No, its the use of fill ins for certain background shots in commercials. My question stands, has any other politician ever used b-roll in their political ads?
