New Lincoln Project ad compares Trump’s meager inauguration crowd to massive protests against racism
Published 1 min ago on June 9, 2020By Travis Gettys

The conservative anti-Trump group The Lincoln Project released a new attack ad against President Donald Trump highlighting the massive protests against police brutality.

The ad, released Tuesday, ties the president’s policies to the protests, which have raged across the United States — and even overseas — in response to the police killing of George Floyd and other Black men and women.

"It took almost four years for Trump to get the crowds he wanted,” the narrator says, after showing the relatively paltry attendance for his January 2017 inauguration."

Little more at link. One sentence which speculates on large crowd sizes when shitstain is gone.

And they need to run one showing him and Republicans knowingly promoting putin's Russia propaganda on Ukraine knowing it was Russian propaganda. That's another sore spot because he will again try to bully through getting Russian sanctions lifted for Putin. Trump also has had Barr helping him hide the full Mueller report because it showed he did collude with Putin to win the last election , the opposite of his claims.

I had a feeling it wouldn't be long until someone else came up with it.

Wish someone in the WH had nets ready in case.

Just this morning I was once again wondering if our viciously vengeful Malignant Narcissist in Chief hasn't been punishing his disloyal nation all along because his inauguration crowd was smaller than Obama's. And of course for hundreds of other "betrayals"...
