Lincoln Project, a group of former top GOP strategists who are working to defeat Donald Trump in November, released a new hard-hitting campaign ad, tearing into the president’s catastrophic response to the coronavirus pandemic that has claimed more than 140,000 lives in the US.
“America now leads the world in COVID deaths,” the ad begins.
“More than 140,000 Americans are dead,” the ad continues. “Friends and colleagues. Sisters, brothers, mothers, and fathers — 140,000 bodies.”
“Side-by-side, they would span over 66 miles,” the ad continued, with video of Trump’s border wall. “They would fill more than 1,160 football fields.”
“Trump is building his wall, just not the one he promised,” the video continues.
As the camera zooms in on the wall, we see it isn’t the steel-slat fence Trump is building along the border with Mexico, but is actually a wall of coffins with each one sequentially numbered.
“Trump’s wall: paid for with 140,000 American lives,” the ad concludes.
