As the war in Ukraine rages on, the country has reached out to western governments—including the United States—for support. If you have been following news on the conflict, you know that those requests for materiél and money has led to intense debate. Many U.S. politicians want to help Ukraine, but are feeling iffy about sending them tanks and other stronger weapons systems out of fear of escalating what has become, essentially, a proxy war with Russia, a geopolitical foe.
Apparently the Ukraine Defense Ministry remembers those commercials, too, because it produced a parody of sorts that reimagines theas a"recreational utility vehicle." The commercial touts the 1,500-hp tank as being"rugged,""dependable," and"powerful," all adjectives we're pretty sure Chevrolet used in at least a few of its own commercials.
What really gets us is how footage of the tank is cut together with all the best truck commercial tropes like horses running in slow motion, a boy scout running with an American flag flowing behind him, and then more horses. The spot ends stating"Because the best things made in America shouldn't stay in America."
No matter what your politics are, you've gotta admit this is pretty damn funny, though we should point out that, no,
So funny ha ha ha
