Physically training an athlete might be easy but what is difficult is mentally training…

In September, Donald Trump aired an ad against Hillary Clinton. Earlier in the month, Clinton gave a speech to donors in which she called Trump supporters “deplorable” because of their stances on social issues. In this ad, Trump attacks Clinton for her comment. The video begins with a montage of clips in which Clinton is (literally) framed in a dark light while a woman narrator explains the premise of Clinton’s quote. Next is a clip of Clinton, again darkened, saying the “basket of deplorables”…
