feeling the heat

June 13, 2017

Jon Ossoff is feeling the heat on his phony national security credentials and his soft stances on terror.

To date, he has released 3 ads defending himself. Jon – if you’re explaining, you’re losing.

April: “As a national security aide I worked with our military, to strengthen our national defense…”

May: “I’m Jon Ossoff, and now the negative ads say I’m soft on terrorism.”

June: “Let’s put this to rest once and for all, I want to see ISIS destroyed.”

He also added a 671 word section on “destroying ISIS” to his website. Just like his prioritization of national security, this section didn’t exist prior to May. This isn’t the first time he’s changed his website.

From CNN:

“Democrat Jon Ossoff’s latest television ad has all the hallmarks of a politician put on his heels by his opponents’ attacks on his national security bona fides.

 “The ad features Ossoff talking straight into the camera. And instead of his own message, he is responding to one that a Republican super PAC spent millions to put on the air in Atlanta. “Let’s put this to rest once and for all,” Ossoff says as the 30-second spot begins.

 “He goes on to denounce ISIS as “evil,” declare that “we have to stop them” and direct viewers to a beefed-up national security section on his campaign website. The website now features six sections — covering military funding, intelligence sharing, battling ISIS, fighting radicalization online and more — that weren’t there a month ago.”

 

 “At just 30 years old, Ossoff has made for a ripe target. He began the campaign touting his high-level national security clearance — though he has backed off his emphasis on the clearance after reports that he only held it for five months before leaving Rep. Hank Johnson’s staff. It’s led to endless attacks from Republicans who accuse Ossoff of inflating his resume.”
