A PSA from the Lincoln Project
Aimed squarely at FAUX news* viewers.

That has to be the strangest add I've ever seen. The Lincoln Project hated Fox and Trump, and Tucker. Now, they're excoriating them for going woke and hating Trump?

Seems like an exercise in triangulation to me, and a rather poorly executed one.

It's intended for that small portion of MAGAWorld who are both self-aware and not immune to irony. That obviously leaves you out.

Its a parody and intended to mock Fox viewers. Did you have the CC on while watching the public service announcement by Lincoln Project? It's not an ad, what are they selling or promoting? Its a dump on Tucker, Murdoch, Trump et. al. while attempting to instill second thoughts on the MAGAts, which I believe is a useless effort. Any group that believes Trump won in 2020 is delusional and beyond redemption.

It will be fun to watch the MAGAts go ape shit when some serious indictment get handed down. The JD is about to conclude their investigation of HB and this may be what we need to goad Garland into some action, because left to his own devices, inaction is his middle name. A poor choice in my opinion.

Ironic satire.
