I would like you to imagine the following online attack-ad for the 2020 election:

Trump has told 9000 or so lies so far. Let's pick the Top 1000 that are the easiest to disprove.

I would like you to imagine the following campaign attack-ad.






White letters on black background. Text continuously scrolls down.

The Top 1000 lies as told by Trump and the evidence that he lied, sorted chronologically.

1000 lies, and each gets 10 seconds of screen-time, that's roughly 3 HOURS.

3 hours of text on auto-scroll, accompanied by a jingle on repeat and the list goes on and on.

3 hours.

"Lie number 16"

"Lie number 17"

"Lie number 18"

"Lie number 19"

...

"Lie number 71"

"Lie number 72"

"Lie number 73"

"Lie number 74"

...

"Lie number 281"

"Lie number 282"

"Lie number 283"

"Lie number 284"

...

"Lie number 527"

"Lie number 528"

"Lie number 529"

"Lie number 530"

"Lie number 531"

...

"Lie number 807"

"Lie number 808"

"Lie number 809"

"Lie number 810"

"Lie number 811"

...

It goes on and on. And on.

You're begging for it to end and it won't end.

Trump's lie about not playing golf, Trump's lie about having no business-interests in Russia, Trump's lie about self-funding his campaign, Trump's lie about Muslims dancing in the streets after 9/11, Trump's lie about winning one of the biggest Electoral College victories ever (he actually finished 46th out of 59), Trump's lie about his crowd-size at the inauguration, Trumps' lie about saving Carrier, Trump's lie about environmental regulations killing coal (natural gas and capitalism are killing coal), Trump's lie about bringing coal-jobs back, Trump's lie about economic growth of 3 to 6%, Trump's lie about only hring the best people, Trump's lie about being tough on Russia (while refusing to implement the sanctions passed by Congress), Trump's lie that nobody has gotten a similar deal before with NK (when NK has actually signed that kind of deal 4 times before)...

3 fucking hours.

Lie

after

lie

after

lie.

And that fucking jingle won't stop. MAKE IT STOP!













Now that would get the conversation going.
