AFAIK, Trump neither ceased nor desisted

So he wasn't pro Trump, he was used?*

Yes. I didn't say he was pro Trump. Just that he was featured heavily (and favorably) in Trump ads.*

I know you didn't mean to be, but your post was misleading
Posted by Sounder

Is it? ISDH said he must have conservative street cred and I said he was featured in a Trump ad

I think he has conservative street cred in the same way that Bill Maher has conservative street cred
