They can just play clips of him admitting out loud he will be a vengeful autocrat.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

That is about what they did. It's a decent ad. The scary voiceover really works.
Simple repetitive scare tactics are what has reliably won elections for Republicans.
It's all they know how to pump out
Weirdos.
Because he is?
Also, if you didn’t catch the one the Lincoln Project put out, give it a watch. Horrifying, and entirely plausible if Trump wins.
"You're under arrest for evading motherhood."
As I understand it, some of the right-wingers are aiming to charge women and girls like her with attempted murder, or murder if they have an abortion. So it could become a capital offense in many states. All part of the men-owning-women program of the right wing.
The current GOP and their voters really doesn't like that the death penalty is off the table for most things. Drug dealers, LGBT people, illegal immigrants, I've even heard people whining that you can't execute SHOPLIFTERS.
Remember non-fascist boys and girls, if you saw someone shoplifting for food, no you didn't.
That’s not what they scare monger about on faux news channels. They make it seem like all cities are full is hoards of group shop lifters that run in and empty a store every damn day.
It’s ridiculous and meant to separate the blue cities from their idea of their country.
But if we're honest, the real crime is "daring to aspire to be more than a cheap, husband-adjacent taxpayer factory".
Babe, wake up, the new mandated pregnancy laws just dropped
D:
Lincoln project ads against Trumo are good. These guys have serious skill. And this ad gave me the chills.
Always nice to see an honest political ad.
So literally just unedited, recorded footage of trump?
YouTube link to the ad for those that would skip the article
Thank you, the website was taking forever
Thank you kind stranger. Keep Beiing awesome!
That sounds accurate.
Sounds like truth in advertising to me.
The Trump campaign is running its own more modest ad buy, including advertising in Trump’s home turf of West Palm Beach, raising eyebrows about how solidly red or MAGA Florida is.
That's probably Trump. The Lincoln Project and some others specifically run ads in places he's likely to be, hoping to get under his skin (and maybe reach some of the voters). He's probably been bitterly complaining about it and the campaign is running local ads to appease him.
I really hope they blanket Fox, et al, the night before the debate, really get under his skin there.
He's probably been bitterly complaining about it and the campaign is running local ads to appease him.
This is exactly what the Lincoln Project thinks is happening, iirc they called the ad buys the campaign buying him a "safety blanket" to protect from the "mean" ads.
Loved this ad.
Trump acts like Vengeful Autocrat, footage edited together*
