Top Democratic super PAC launches $6M campaign attacking Trump on coronavirus

[RandySF]

The largest Democratic super PAC is launching a $6 million campaign hitting President Trump over his response to the coronavirus outbreak.

The Priorities USA campaign includes ads in four battleground states highlighting how Trump downplayed the threat posed by the outbreak for weeks, even as the number of confirmed cases in the U.S. ticked higher.

The first ad from the group features audio clips of Trump claiming that the coronavirus outbreak is a “hoax” and that his administration has the situation “totally under control.” Meanwhile, a chart in the background shows the number of coronavirus cases in the U.S. rising exponentially.

The 30-second spot is set to begin airing on Tuesday in Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

4. My GOP neighbors are so butthurt about people "attacking our leader at a time of crisis."

Joe Biden today gave the best response to that:

“Trump keeps saying he is a wartime president — well, start to act like one,” Biden said. “Donald Trump is not to blame for the coronavirus but he does bear responsibility for our response.”

5. I can understand why Pubbies are so upset

After all, not a one of them ever criticized Obama...least of all their beloved Fuhrer.

No doubt they would respond "yeah, but there never really was a crisis when he was President" (ignoring the fact that when Obama took office we were in the middle of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression which he was not at all responsible for but fixed anyway). And that's when you got 'em and can blast away.

These Pubbies are kinda like shooting fish in a barrel.

6. Hey

The 30-second spot is set to begin airing on Tuesday in Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

People got TVs out here in Arizona too. AZ's just dying to vote blue so buy a little airtime out here. And Ohio while you're at it...now ain't the time to get all cheap-ass. Let's bury these Gopper bastards and not just squeak by 'em.
