U.S. Rep. Derrick Van Orden, R-Prairie du Chien, feeds goats and knocks “loudmouth, preening politicians” in the first TV ad of his reelection campaign.
Van Orden’s campaign said the spot is the beginning of a seven-figure buy on broadcast, cable and streaming. The ad comes ahead of next week’s three-way Dem primary for the incumbent’s 3rd CD seat in western Wisconsin.
According to AdImpact, Van Orden has $51,862 reserved over the next week and $2.7 million through the Nov. 5 election.
The ad shows Van Orden and his grandchildren in a hay-filled barn with goats.
“Welcome to Washington, D.C. You got a bunch of loudmouth, preening politicians – it’s absolute chaos,” Van Orden says as a goat bleats. “I’m Derrick Van Orden and after 26 years as a Navy SEAL, there’s a few things that I learned: you stay on mission, you know what you’re fighting for, and sometimes you got to get a little dirty to finish the job.”
