16. Hopefully his commercials will become an issue
You know, the ones that try to sell his product to people too young to legally drink it using sexually stimulating and degrading images of young women in bikinis with really bad screeching parodies of rock and roll?

Does he approve those commercials? Does he approve of them? Of underage drinking, of the images of beauty and identity he is creating for young people? Does he feel responsible for people who drink and drive because his commercials convince them they will be cool and sexy if they party too hard?

And don't those images disagree with the ultra-rightwing moral dictatorship his party is trying to create?
