The reason none of us have seen them, could be that they were only targeted at the gullible dumbasses who could possibly vote for Trump? Maybe that was a special target group? Maybe it's the same group that gets ad-targeted for e.g. hemorrhoid cream and mobile home skirting?

Frankly, given the revealed political preferences of FB executives, I'm pretty skeptical of any fruit from this tree.

Did that really need an /s? But yes, I agree.
