So, I just saw Trump's ad saying Biden is not fit due to mental status. LOL - What a waste of money

I don't know where else they are running this ad, I just saw it on MSNBC. Uhm, for every gaffe you can show of Biden, you can probably find 10 for Trump- behaving or saying down right absurd, bizarre and disturbed things. Nobody watching MSNBC will see this as the same thing.
Whomever decided to pay MSNBC to run this ad is a fool.

And usually it works. (Note attacks on Hillary’s health and weight, John Kerry’s military service, etc. )


But I think this time it will backfire. Trump is SO far gone, mentally and physically, that any attention brought to mental health will inevitably reflect poorly on him.


Also, many thanks to Sarah Cooper for her work going viral and drawing so much attention to how fruckin nuts the words coming out of Trump’s mouth actually are.

...is Fox News showing pro-Biden ads? I NEVER watch Fox News, can't stomach it, so I have no idea. But if Fox News won't run pro-Biden, anti-orange con man ads, then I would hope that MSNBC would refuse ads like the one I just saw.

That's coming from a person who is going to require an encyclopedic expansion of the next DSM just to cover the disorders he has.

One would think they hired a bunch of 7th-graders to put that thing together.

Because it sure looks like the same kind of crap half-assed garbage O'Keefe is known for. They may have Karl Rove working with them, but the competent people seem to have abandoned them for the Lincoln Project and other anti-Trump groups. That includes the ones who put together the slick commercials. They're down to the dregs now. It may not have been O'Keefe who put that thing together, but it was likely someone who is just as incompetent.

No doubt, that garbage had Rove's fingerprints all over it. I just think Rove's old production crew have abandoned him, and now he's stuck with the dregs. His old crowd are cranking 'em out for The Lincoln Project, etc.

Surely MSNBC viewers aren't seen as reachable by Trump.

Do they think they're owning the libs? Do they have so much money they can blow some for fun?

...and Trump's making fun of aging.

First thought seeing the ending was the time he imitated the man with cerebral palsy.
