That would be fairer and more persuasive.



But I'm guessing that (a) they wanted to squeeze this into 60 seconds, and (b) they prefer to keep their message simple, since a lot of the people they're targeting with it aren't interested in depth or nuance.

It's classic GOP marketing. Take a salient point without context and hammer it
