I do prefer his uplifting ads, and think (with no evidence whatsoever) they’re probably more effective because they create a safe way for people to gravitate towards him — but I secretly enjoy the ones that could get up Drumpf’s nose.

TLDR: I think the positive ads are for people on the fence, and the ads like this are for us.

Never let up. It will get under his skin alright. And he’ll punch back. He always does. But just keep the pressure on him. He is used to people retreating in silence, afraid to confront him. Biden and his team need to look him straight in the eyes and confront again and again. He is a coward underneath. He will cave or just flail. And it will be delicious to watch him dissolve into a puddle of goo or implode like the pus bag he is.

Keep going! This will be epic. 😉

Here's what it does: it is designed to evoke fear in Trumpy's base. Fear of Trump. It's not made up, not fictional. It's taken from factual moments. It contains truth, then a coherent comment on the truth. And there is no pathway for Trump to effectively oppose the content.

It's brilliant. It appeals to "emotional intelligence."

More of these, please.

Joe's team is hitting home runs, this is a great ad for everyone who will vote. Please Retweet.

This not only is an effective ad with voters, this ad is going to make Trump lose his marbles even more.

And many of those on the fence have been coming down off that fence into our yard.

We need to keep up the momentum and counter the inevitable lies and fake 'investigations' and hopefully take back the Senate as well as the White House.
