They really didn't need to tear into him with this one since his behavior is clear.

and what they are doing, our side needs to get people who will write and produce ads like this.

I hope our candidates and strategists are learning from this. If we want to win, we need to hit and hit hard.

Republicans would be the audience for Lincoln project's attack ads. It should sow enough doubt for some to flip.

To get Trump tied up in so many pissing matches he'll forget who is he running against.

Dem ads would be considered more of a 'preaching to the choir', where the ads made by Trump's own party bring a wider group of viewers & their approval.

A Country over Party appeal.

Trump is a dark stain on their Republican Party.
An abomination that will last years if they don't denounce him.

while we are the carrots. Biden's making it clear on a regular basis that he condemns everything Trump does, but no need to sink to their level. Let the pro mud-slingers sling mud. Let's fix America and the world

they will go back to doing ads for their side, the Republicans. It would serve us well to LEARN from this and not only do warm and fuzzy "nice" ads.

They are not our friends, they are temporary allies at best and we need to pay attention to the playbook because it can and will be used against us.

Some are nice, some are attack.

We will NEVER out-nasty the GOP, and every time we do, we lose.

I've disliked those folks for a long time, so I'm not in any way not paying attention, but I'll pass on using the playbooks of nasty, egotistical, greedy bigots. Let them swim in their swamps, since they like them so much.

I agree, where is the DNCCC? Steve Schmitt and the Lincoln Project are the most outraged at the GOP. I would kill to see one Dem come out as Schmitt did on Joy this AN and so eloquently and passionately slam trump for treason. I would love to see Pelosi screaming and Schumer as well. We need to show complete outrage at what the GOP is doing. Backbone!! Just as Obama SHOULD have done with McTurd-al with the Supreme Court pick. The damn material to write and produce adds is thicker than trump bullshit. The lack of outrage for the Clinton bullshit gave us this hell. If your not pissed at what is happening with the country, get the hell out of office.

I hope this is provable because if so, he is dead to every real national security type, even the right wingers.
