In New Ads, The Biden/Harris Campaign Seeks to Broaden Their Coalition While the Lincoln Project Showcases MAGA Stupidity and Trump's Obedience to Putin

All hands are on deck and the drive to earn as many votes as possible is the primary purpose of the latest Biden/Harris Campaign that hopes to persuade Nikki Haley supporters to, temporarily at least, join the Democratic team to protect the nation's Democracy against the MAGA Fascist Donald Trump. 

The ad, called "Save America. Join us." first showcases many of Mr. Trump's insults toward his former United Nations Ambassador and South Carolina Governor.

Among the insults were calling her:

  • "Birdbrain."
  • A person who has "made an unholy alliance with RINOS and Never Trumpers."
  • "Crazy."
  • A "very angry person."
  • "Not Presidential Timber."
  • "Haywire."

The piece also reminds Haley's supporters that they are not welcome in the MAGA camp (unless they swear loyalty to it) and Trump repeatedly says that he does not need Haley voters.

The ad concludes with the caption: "Save the Country. Join us."

Commenting on the ad, Biden/Harris Communications Director Micheal Tyler stated:

“Donald Trump has made it crystal clear he doesn’t want support from voters who cast their ballot for Nikki Haley so let us be equally clear: there is a home for everyone on this campaign who knows Donald Trump cannot be back in the White House. Joe Biden is building a broad and diverse coalition of voters who want more freedoms not less, who want to protect our democracy, and who want to live in a country that is safe from the chaos, division, and violence that another Donald Trump presidency would bring.”

In seeking to broaden a coalition from the left to the center-right that would guarantee victory in November (especially in states like Arizona, Georgia, and North Carolina,) the Biden/Harris Campaign is right to reach out to disgruntled Republicans, like the ones who are still voting for Haley in primaries weeks after she dropped out.

If this new coalition the Democrats are trying to forge needs (really) more convincing, please view the two latest ads from the Lincoln Project that show how low, and incompetent, the House Republican Caucus has become and how Donald Trump is obedient to only one person: Vladimir Putin.

in the ad, called "The Stupid Party," the Project shows conservative commentators aghast at the House Republican's incompetence and chaos.

Citing the House Republican conference in "disarray" with Representatives resigning and reducing their narrow majority to one vote, the ad highlights Majorie Taylor Greene's motion to oust current Speaker Mike Johnson after he made a deal with the Democrats to fund the government. 

If successful in her motion, Republicans would make history for throwing out two speakers in one year.

Not exactly what the stuff of legends here.

The clip even had Newt Gingrich, the historic precursor to this MAGA insanity from the 1990s, calling the Freedom Caucus "a disaster."

The ad has Fox commentators calling the Republican House Majority "a dysfunctional embarrassment."

It ends with Laura Ingraham commenting, "This is why conservatives call the GOP the stupid party." 

The second ad, called "On the Take," shows the symbiotic relationship between Mr. Trump and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.

The first part of the narrative reminds voters that Russia actively helped Trump win the Presidency in 2016 with Putin actively praising him.

The middle part demonstrates Trump falling for Putin's flattery and taking Russia's side at various points in his Presidency, putting their interests over the United States and calling the Russian leader smarter than Biden and the Democrats.

The narrator also points out that Trump is willing to let Russia defeat Ukraine and attack N.A.T.O. members who are not current on their bills. 

The ad concludes with the narrator stating:

"He (Trump) doesn't have a good relationship with Putin. He owes Putin. Trump's not just on the other side. He's on the take."
