Sometimes a fresh set of eyes on a problem or new blood added to a team can be a real difference maker as we all know. Little did the Trump Campaign and his supporters of the Trump-Vance ticket know it could happen so rapidly with the allegiance of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his running mate Nicole Shanahan!
RFK Jrโs. Running Mate, Nicole Shanahan, just released a pro-Trump political ad mocking those on the left suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). She targets all those who seemingly hate former President Donald Trump without reasons or rationalization. As one Internet meme exposes these people today, โIf you hate Donald Trump more than you love America, you are the problem in this country today!โ

The video ad Shanahan posted to X yesterday, has received an astounding 3.5 million views in just 12 hours!
Kennedyโs liberal vice president running mate Nicole Shanahan, who previously helped the Democrats win the 2020 runoff in Georgia, has gone all in for former President Donald Trump. Shanahan was also a huge Barack Obama supporter back when he ran for the presidency twice.
Shanahan, 38, is a California lawyer and philanthropist who leads the Bia-Echo Foundation, an organization she founded to direct money toward issues including womenโs reproductive science, criminal justice reform and environmental causes. She is a Stanford University fellow and was the founder and chief executive of ClearAccessIP, a patent management firm that she sold in 2020.
She was the primary donor behind a Super Bowl ad produced by the pro-Kennedy super PAC American Values 2024. She contributed $4 million to that ad which appeared earlier this year. In response to criticism from a Kennedy family member following the adโs release, the super PAC said itโs โidea, funding, and execution came primarilyโ from Shanahan. Kennedy did apologize to the offended cousin all the same.

CONCLUSION:
Nicole Shanahan is to be applauded for this ad release. It is truthful and exposes both the insanity and hypocrisy of todayโs Democrat Party. It is extremely interesting how so many powerful Democrats of 2023 are turning from the party in 2024. When you learn the lack of democracy the party exhibited towards both RFK, Jr. and Shanahan it is easy to understand how they are on a mission of retribution.
Shanahan might be a liberal with liberal ideals but she brings some thoughts to the conservativeโs table worthy of discussion and debate.
What touches my heart about Shanahanโs story is how it parallelโs the childhood story of J.D. Vance portrayed in the movie โHillbilly Elegyโ so much!

Shanahan has often talked about her difficult upbringing in California, the daughter of a mother who immigrated from China and an Irish and German-American father โplagued by substance abuseโ who โstruggled to keep a job.โ Her familyโs reliance on government assistance made an impression on her and made her grateful. Shanahan has offered that although she became โvery wealthy later on in life,โ she can still relate to Americans being โjust one misfortune away from disaster.โ
As a regular donor to several Rockford (Illinois) homeless shelters, where substance abuse is often the common denominator to homelessness, I have a deep understanding in my mind and soft spot in my heart for both Shanahan and Vance. It would not surprise me if they meet and become good friends one day in the future.
As Dad used to say, โMisery loves company.โ
