'Always been an outcast': Trump slammed as he touts himself to be an 'outsider' in latest campaign ad
PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: Former President Donald Trump is leveraging his beleaguered social networking platform, Truth Social, to release a new campaign advertisement encouraging his supporters to embrace being outsiders.
In the latest advertisement, the former president touts himself as an outsider and urges his supporters to follow his example and embrace being one too.

The advertisement appears to be part of a broader campaign strategy aimed at mobilizing Trump's ever-ardent supporter base and positioning him as a populist leader who is not beholden to the political establishment.
The message resonates with many of Trump's supporters who view themselves as outsiders and who are often skeptical of politicians and political insiders.

By positioning himself as such, Trump is hoping to cement his image as a political phenomenon and rally his base ahead of the 2024 November general elections.
What did Trump’s new campaign video entail?
The latest Trump campaign video featured different images and clips of the former President during his time in office.
In the recorded video, former President Trump urged his followers to view the term "impossible" as a mere source of motivation.
“Treat the word ‘impossible’ as nothing more than motivation. Relish the opportunity to be an outsider and embrace that label,” the 77-year-old GOP presidential frontrunner remarked in the campaign ad.
He emphasized that embracing the label of being an outsider is fundamental, as it is the outsiders who catalyze change and bring about a lasting impact on the world.

The MAGA figurehead posted, “Being an outsider is fine, embrace the label because it’s the outsiders who change the world and who make a real and lasting difference.”
Despite the growing legal concerns, former POTUS Donald Trump is on course to clinch the Republican presidential nomination for the third consecutive time in the upcoming US general elections.

He emerged triumphant in the Iowa caucuses and secured an impressive 54.5 percent of the vote in New Hampshire, according to a report from The Hill.
The real estate mogul has now shifted his focus to Nevada, where he is set to appear on the state's caucus ballot this week, before heading to South Carolina for the February 24 primary, which is his only remaining competitor, Nikki Haley's home state.
