The Lincoln Project: "How it Starts" (Wow)

[catbyte]

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. Very effective!

I support them.

PERIOD.

[Blue_true]

14. The old adage applies big time here "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".

Regardless of what they were, I will work with them for now, all to get rid of a more dangerous enemy.

[Volaris]

23. Until they turn around and replace trump with Universal Healthcare

[dem4decades]

2. I guess it's not just the left that's concerned now is it?

[GentryDixon]

44. They're trying to get rid of the tRUmp sycophants as

well as the orange one. They will then rebuild the Republican party.

[area51]

3. They're not playing. n/t

[Ms. Toad]

4. I was waiting for this one.

They did as well with it as I had hoped.

[Capperdan]

5. Freaking Scary

He's still there...every morning, same shit, worse shit. Get him out, we gotta get him out.

[SunSeeker]

19. Scary because it's TRUE.

[betsuni]

6. That scared me so bad I had to go hide under the bed.

[SiliconValley_Dem]

26. really?

[betsuni]

28. No

My sister's cat always hid under the bed when it got scared.

[Oppaloopa]

50. Not at all FUNNY Now he is sending them to Philadelphia and Chicago. Still think it's funny?????

[Blecht]

7. I can't believe that I am thanking Republicans

But these people are kicking ass.

[Hekate]

8. TLP is playing for keeps -- but so are Putin/McConnell/Barr. Best we should, too.

I know who’s on my side.

Thank you, Lincoln Project.

[SiliconValley_Dem]

27. yep. we can engage in disagreements with thim later...but they are helping

and this app time we're in is the scariest I've seen in America.

[trueblue2007]

9. HORRIBLE

[anamnua]

10. It has to be grudgingly admitted

Nobody does attack ads quite like the repubs.

[denem]

11. Hey Mike - about all that money you promised to spend,

to do anything and everything to defeat Donald Trump?

How about putting Lincoln Project ads on TV?

[StarryNite]

12. We're living in a horror movie.

And it's scary as hell.

[Blue_true]

13. They don't fuck around. I am a little leery of them, but I am likely to pitch a few buck

their way up to the November vote. They are doing far more damage to Trump that Democratic superpacs. After we get rid of Trump, hopefully they keep going after his republican sycophants that are still in office.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. They have publicly said that this is their plan.

They will not rest till all of tRump's supporters in office.

Given how they've behaved so far, I believe them.

[gulliver]

15. Barr going for a Reichstag fire sort of thing?

The cracked Trump stooges are dwindling in number and running out of provocations. Trump's mouth isn't as effective as it was. Everyone knows he's low and full of shit. I love this ad.

[Rural_Progressive]

38. Plus

his age coupled with a remarkably unhealthy lifestyle combined with the stress and not getting recharged at his Nuremberg rallies is catching up with him.

[qwlauren35]

17. Nope.

No racist white person is going to believe that they are next.

[not_the_one]

45. Forget about the racist white people. They are lost. Let 'em die of the virus.

The fence sitters and middle of the roaders, and those who didn’t bother to vote in 2016 are the targets.

Where are the Democratic ads? The few Biden ads I’ve seen are tepid in comparison.

I can’t believe that Democratic sympathetic ad firms have no one with talent like the Lincoln Project.

We may have to thank republicans for defeating the turd, come November.

[Tommymac]

18. Twitter Link to rec it up.

Link to tweet

[SunSeeker]

20. Thank you! Retweeted!

[Duppers]

33. Voted up. TY for reminding folks.

I make an effort to always vote up tweets people should see. There are just too many bots online we must counter.

Thanks again, TM.

[IronLionZion]

21. Their audience is other Republicans

they aim to plant enough doubt in enough Republican voters' minds to til the election away from Trump and his supporters. These powerful ads should help influence moderate and nonpolitical GOP voters in suburban swing districts.

[superpatriotman]

22. I think I just pooped a little

It reminds me of the ultra violent Bill Murray Christmas commercial in Scrooged

[betsuni]

29. That's it! I knew it reminded me of something.

"Your life might just depend on it."

[Roc2020]

53. oh man

[BSdetect]

24. Expect the very worst before Nov

[napi21]

35. I think the absolute WORST will ne between Nov. & Jan.! When he loses he'll have no reason to

hold back on anything! Whatever the worst you can imagine is, his actions then will be much worse! I've been very worried about his lame duck actions for a long time.

[LAS14]

25. They keep saying what you want someone to say! nt

[radical noodle]

30. They always go for the throat

These are the most devastating ads I've ever seen against a presidential candidate. I'm glad we're on the same side in this one.

[SergeStorms]

31. That's one that needs to be seen nationwide.

They've been targeting their ads to select audiences in select cities. This one needs to go nationwide, because everyone must know that this is going on, and what it leads to.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

32. Well, I hope it appeals to those who might otherwise vote for Pissolini.

Personally, I find the vocal quality of the narrator creepy. I guess that's the kind of thing RWers think is impressive.

[lark]

34. Wow, just wow.

I am tingling all over, they have totally captured my deep concern about our doom if he manages to steal the 2020 election, whether through violence or voter suppression and vote hacking.

We have to vote in droves, need a #BLUETSUNAMI to overcome his brownshirt goons who he has promised will be at the polls to prevent libruls from kicking out their hero and Fuhrer in waiting.

[zentrum]

36. Hey Susan Collins--you watching this?

[NY06DemSoc]

37. I had wondered

What happened to the principled Republicans who had some sort of value for the Constitution, the Rule of Law and Civil Liberties. I'm glad to see some of them must be advising on this campaign. The Trump cult Republican party is hopeless and horrible. But there used to be people with whom I could disagree and still respect. Thank god they are using their voices.

[Nululu]

39. Voter intimidation for 2020

Trump's attempt to stay in power, this may be used for voter suppression and intimidation especially in poor and minority neighborhoods.

We've already seen record numbers of citizens removed from the voting rolls. This could be a continuation of disenfranchisement through violence.

[Nululu]

43. Portland is fine. No justification for thei presence

A veteran in his 50's simply stood there while Trump's Gestapo beat him, breaking his hand and repeatedly pepper spraying him.

The Govenor should not ask them to leave, she should tell them to leave.

[Oppaloopa]

51. Philadelphia is fine why is he sending federal troupes there ??

[Nululu]

54. Political posturing & distraction nt

[BarbD]

40. Tump, Barr and company will do anything to stay in power.

Every hour, every day, we have to fight to get out the vote. It is our only hope.

[PatrickforO]

41. Whoa! That is really good.

I'm furious about these unmarked cops.

[sunonmars]

42. If that does not scare the shit out of the population, nothing will.

[onetexan]

46. Barr &the Idiot are turning the US into a police state

Under cover of law &order. The video is right, the countey is quickly sliding into fascism

[AntiFascist]

47. If Trump manages to steal the election, is this how it ends?

"What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance. Let them take arms."
- Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Madison, December 20, 1787

[McCamy Taylor]

48. Man, they have some serious talent working for them

[VA_Jill]

49. Holy shit!

If that doesn't scare the bejesus out of a few people, nothing will.

[Roc2020]

52. oh my! pure terror.

[rkleinberger]

55. So now what?

We talk about Trump, etc. but who are these troops? They need to be called out and held accountable. Unless we start holding all accountable including the actual person on the ground doing this you won't stop this. Again, the Dems are lazy to stand up to this

[annm4peace]

56. Voting ain't going do Shit. We need a Coup right now

What the heck is wrong with Americans??? Haven't we learned about how Hitler came to power?

Loved the video, till it was close to the end.. The solution is to make sure to vote??? Are you kidding me???

Maybe I missed a post or video about it, but Where are the Veterans for Peace members (who aren't protesting in Portland already) ?

The high ranking Veterans for Peace, former State Dept Heads, Generals, Intelligence Officers, Dept of Justice heads, etc.. should be forming a Coup. They should be headed to the White House, the Justice Dept, and CDC.
They should physically remove Trump and his administration and replace Trump with Rep Pelosi and former common sense officials for the other positions, and Dept Heads. And immediately have a group remove the top CDC person and replace them with former CDC...get rid of any residue of Trump.

I'm a piece activist so I don't want any military control but would love Vets for Peace to come in and clean house.

No, Voting isn't gonna get, and it is a joke to think it will.

I wish ret. Lt General Russel Honore and ret. Col Ann Wright would stage a Coup tomorrow.

[JI7]

57. lol, too obvious. Anyone who wants to get rid of this shit knows Voting is the most important thing
