The Making Of The Lindsey Graham Ad
Forbes ^ | Paul Talbot

Posted on 08/26/2020 9:57:01 AM PDT by yoe

Harvard economics professor Greg Mankiw calls it, “perhaps the greatest campaign ad ever.”

The ad, produced by the organization Republican Voters Against Trump, a project of Defending Democracy Together, depicts South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham commenting on President Trump and Vice President Biden.

I recently asked the ad’s producer, Barry Rubin with RVAT, to fill us in on the ad’s story.

[snip]Section 1 is Graham talking about Trump being a racist, xenophobic, religious bigot - or however he phrased it. Graham actually said things like this a lot in 2015 and 2016, but I thought this clip was the best one.

I have long heard that Graham was the fox guarding the hen house when it came to President Trump. This article shows just how despicable, back stabbing the little man is.

Yeah, this little pansy is pushing to put his name in the running for the GOP primaries for 2024. He is useless and a real scumbag....nothing new actually.

Why is that ad “perhaps the greatest campaign ad ever”?

The answer is simple. It’s because it’s an anti-Trump ad. That’s how the media - including Forbes - rolls these days.

Now, here’s the actual greatest campaign ad ever. It’s a rousing fan-made Trump fight song. Trust me, it’s worth the click - especially if you need a bit of a boost.

That’s nice. But it won’t be plastered on television like the Graham ad will be. Just wait. All the media markets hitting SC will be running that ad ad-nauseam between labor day and election day. He’s got Jaime Harrison nipping at his heels, giving him a good run for his seat. He deserves to lose, but not to a Rat. I didn’t vote for him in the primary, as I was confident he’d win anyway, but will have to hold my nose to vote for him in November - Graham, that is.

I cannot find a link to the “ad” at Forbes or on Talbot’s twitter page. If it was so great one would think that they would make it easier to find. Your typical low information voter is not going to care about one more person, especially Linda calling President Trump a racist or whatever. They have done this so frequently that it does not mean anything any more.

It isn’t even on the Republican Voters Against Trump webpage. They are just so proud of this ad that they do not want anyone to see it.

OK I finally found it. It is not the greatest political ad ever, but Linda should still lock himself in a closet for the next six months for being such a moron. If you need to spike your blood pressure go to the following link.

Grahamnesty is a Bush League Republican working for a permanent Democrat majority.

He has proven that by voting for amnesty THREE times.

He has only pretended to support Trump for his own re-election.

Everything Graham has done seems designed to “Silo” evidence and slow walk investigations and harm the Nation and our President’s interests in learning the truth.

I expect we’ll learn he deserves the same end as the rest of the coup plotters.
