That talking point that Dems can't do ads is out of date.

Some people have such short memories. I remember the ooohs and aahhhs every time #TeamBloomberg put a new ad up obliterating Trump. Devastating and often humorous ads that went viral in minutes. People could hardly contain their excitement.

And who could forget Joe Biden's "The world is laughing at Trump" ad?

This is not a Democratic Party add. I’m glad some on our side are taking the gloves off. And, to be fair, there have been some hard hitting Biden adds. But don’t tell me that Democrats aren’t shit at messaging when even on this board, ex-republican against Trump adds outnumber dem adds...what 2-1?

DNC hires Bloomberg-tied tech firm Hawkfish for 2020 election
https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/election/article243820362.html

The Democratic National Committee has hired the digital and technology firm Hawkfish, according to two sources with knowledge of the situation, bringing the Michael Bloomberg-founded company on board for the final four months of the 2020 campaign.

The DNC’s decision will be controversial among some progressives, who bristled at the idea of Bloomberg, the former New York City mayor and multi-billionaire, gaining influence within the party. Earlier this month, Joe Biden’s campaign opted against hiring the firm, though the DNC and Biden campaign are working hand-in-hand during the general election.

The nature of the Hawkfish’s contract with the DNC, and what work they’ll specifically do for the committee, was not entirely clear. One source with knowledge of the agreement said it was for a “small data contract.”


Pro-Biden super PAC American Bridge hires Mike Bloomberg’s digital firm Hawkfish
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/07/15/pro-biden-super-pac-american-bridge-hires-mike-bloombergs-digital-firm-hawkfish.html

Hawkfish, a tech firm founded by billionaire former presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg, has signed on with a pro-Joe Biden super PAC after missing out on working directly with the presumptive Democratic nominee’s campaign.

The super PAC, American Bridge, recently signed a contract with the Bloomberg firm, officials told CNBC.

The PAC has spent millions of dollars on ads on TV and online in support of the former vice president’s bid for the White House. The organization is also well known for its often-unmatched opposition research arm.

Call him a liar, over & over.
Call him a failure, and list the broken promises, over & over.
Having Adam Schiff's speech is fine, but there was no reminder for Joe & Jane Public as to what crime he committed.
Save the intellectual discussions for after PINO's defeated.
For now, gut punch until the targets pukes!

And yes, all DUers please stop bashing your party...now is not the time. Instead take action, sign up for phone banking, post cards...support Biden and senate candidates.
QUIT whining and act.

He's taking the high road and not going negative.

This is brilliant. Why go negative when your opponent is self-destructing? Let him do the dirty work.

It also differentiates him as the more dignified choice. The WH needs a return to dignity.
