A new campaign video released by the Lincoln Project imagines a young Republican waking up from a three-year coma and being updated by his family about Trump illegally paying off a porn star, Mexico not paying for the wall, Trump praising white nationalists after the fatal Charlottesville “Unite the Right” rally and his administration’s failed response to the coronavirus pandemic.
The video, directed by Jon Turteltaub, is not a regular 30 or 60-second ad. It’s a short film that lasts over six minutes.
“It would be funny if it wasn’t so true,” Lincoln Project co-founder Rick Wilson said. “Republican Senators are doing the same mental gymnastics to justify their support of Trump. But no one is laughing.”
The Lincoln Project is a group of top former GOP strategists seeking to remove Donald Trump and his supporters from office.
