No time to waste on pleasantries, it seems.

Especially the obvious reference to the infamous Daisy ad at the start. I’m a bit afraid that this will backfire on her.
Also, is there any way to save videos? I plan to go to grad school in the near future and earn a Ph.D. in political science. One of my areas of interest is political communication. I would like to save campaign ads for later research.
