'This guy couldn't get a job at the local mall': Brutal new ad shows Trump's unfitness

Hours before Donald Trump was scheduled to appear at a Manhattan courtroom where he is facing 34 felony counts related to election interference related to hush money paid to adult film star Stormy Daniels, the hosts of MSNBC's "Morning Joe" shared a new ad demonstrating his legal issues would make him unemployable.

In the ad, produced by the Republican Voters Against Trump PAC, an actor is heard asking real-life employers for a job while admitting he is currently facing 88 felony accounts, has been accused of stealing government secrets and then asking, "Do you all take people who have been found liable of sexual assault?"

In each case, he is warned he won't get through an interview, with the employers replying "They're going to do a background check," and "We actually run a full background. It won't go through." The ad then concludes with, "If Trump is too big of a liability to get a job at your local mall, he is too big of a liability to be president of the United States."

Following the sharing of the ad, MSNBC co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski sat down with RVAT.org Executive Director Sarah Longwell. "One of the things we could see is that, because Donald Trump has so many charges against him, there are so many different cases, the voters are having difficulty kind of, you know, teasing them out, understanding the difference," she explained before adding, "What we wanted to do with the ad is really underscore Donald Trump's level of legal liability; this guy couldn't get a job at the local mall, right?"

1. There is no occupation for which Trump is qualified or fit to hold.

Any job requires willingness and dedication to toil, the brains to understand and accomplish the work required, the physical ability to sustain the action over the course of a workday, and the personal qualities needed to maintain trust with customers, the general public and professional colleagues.

Here's what Rex Tillerson, Trump's first Secretary of State, said about him: "He's a fucking moron."

at his business that looks like trump's resume, that he would throw it in the trash immediately, so if he is not good for your business, why would you contemplate voting for him for president? It really doesn't make sense.

I just sent it to a bunch of people.

he couldn't even qualify to be a third-shift manager at the local all-night burger joint. And he'd probably steal them blind, to boot. It's unfortunate (for him) that there isn't much money in being a professional jerk.

alone would disqualify him from many jobs, and even housing. And that was before all the indictments, charges, etc. Yet far too many people think him fit to squat in OUR HOUSE!!!

already has been suspected of stealing and perhaps selling some of the secrets that he hoarded at his little place in FL. He's a traitor too. That's obvious.

8. This is what I always said. He could never last at entry level positions

at fast food and retail and other places where many people get their first job.

If he managed to get the job he would be fired in under a week.

If he didn't have wealth to bail him out he would have ended up in prison long time ago.
