Super Bowl ads are supposed to be full of good messages and promotion but, with Trump's presidency not just one thing seems to be falling apart. Recently the Super Bowl aired showing its trademark of having the best commercials but, this one was different from regular commercials. Like Budweiser, Coca-Cola and 84 Lumber had commercials about immigration and jobs. This apparently angered more pro-Trump fans and as any pro-Trump fan, they took their rage out on Twitter. They started to tweet. #boycottbudwiser #boycott84lumber.
This article written by Ahiza Garica at Febuary,6, 2017 talks about even the simplest of things can have the biggest effects. These commercials express and touch you in no other way. They show people in times of struggle, who find ambition and strive for it. These commercials don't mean any harm. The 84 Lumber shows directly the effects of Trump's wall on people who just want to have a second chance. It's crazy how one persons views and minds can change so many people for the best or for the worst. It just boggles my mind that every American was an immigrant (except for Native Americans). Most of our ancestors came here is search of freedom or the drive to succeed. And every time someone new wants to enjoy the freedom, we have to kick them to the ground and discriminate them.

It is very interesting how different the commercials were this year. A majority of them were serious rather than funny. It is pretty crazy how one small thing can affect so many people.
