Republicans running for office anywhere in the country should pay close attention to this. Steve Hilton’s latest AI-generated campaign ad for California governor is one of the sharpest pieces of political messaging I’ve seen this cycle. It doesn’t just attack, it shows the clear choice in vivid, side-by-side detail. Two years into a Steve Hilton governorship: California’s high-speed rail boondoggle is canceled and turned into the “National Monument of Government Failures.” Visitors from around the world come to stare at the most expensive piece of concrete in human history. A sign lists the Democrats who backed it, Newsom, Becerra, Brown, Buttigieg. Skid Row is transformed into a destination with cherry blossoms and fine dining. Santa Monica’s Third Street Promenade is full of shoppers and diners. Gas is $3 a gallon. Families are taking road trips again. The state feels livable. Then the ad rewinds to the alternate future under Democrat Xavier Becerra: Gas hits $8 a gallon. The only traffic is people packing up and leaving the state. The Third Street Promenade is a ghost town. Becerra is called the “kiss of death” for Santa Monica. Skid Row is overrun with typhoid and rat infestations. Taxes are raised again to dump another $200 billion into the railroad to nowhere. This is what decades of one-party Democratic rule have produced, and what continuing that path would lock in. The ad doesn’t sugarcoat it. It makes the contrast impossible to miss. Other Republican candidates could learn from the style, the clarity, and the willingness to use modern tools to show voters the stakes. California’s future is still being written. So is the country’s. xitter.cf/SteveHiltonx/status/21… Stop Communism Vote RED in the Midterms Vote America First 🇺🇸
