Ex-President Donald Trump this week became the target of a new TV ad aired in Palm Beach, Florida. The spot, launched by the Lincoln Project, trolls the former president, calling him ‘impotent’ and suggests that Mitch McConnell is taking advantage of him.
Trump, who spends most of his time golfing and watching right-wing television, is warned in the ad that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is going to build another Republican Party without him.
The ad claims that Josh Holmes, McConnell’s former chief of staff who now hosts a conservative podcast, “acts like you (Trump) are a nobody and laughs about how Mitch ignores you.”
“Now everyone is saying you’re old, impotent, [and] an embarrassment,” the ad continues. The Lincoln Project presumably means “lacking power.”
“And they will come to Mar-a-Lago, tricking you with cheap gifts, like a Dollar Store silver bowl,” the ad continues, showing a photo of Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) delivering a participation trophy to Trump. “But in Washington, Mitch runs the party. You made the MAGA movement, Donald, and they are taking it all away from you while using your name to make money.”
