I hope all of the campaigning (ads, speeches, etc.) against Spanky encompasses this theme ......

Yes, Spanky is a obnoxious toxic yutz, but worst of all and most importantly, he's an arsonist who lets the entire nation burn (each negative ad can show a metaphorical and/or literal example of this like COVID) and tries to play hero by running in with a fire hose after the fire's already burned through. These "fires" have killed thousands in Puerto Rico from Hurricane Maria and almost 150,000 just this year so far from the Coronavirus. Every single "accomplishment" he can even try to brag about is either doing this or stealing credit for what is largely other people's hard work (the bipartisan First Step Act, Khalilzaid's Afghanistan negotiations, or the continuing lowering unemployment that started and mostly occurred under Obama until the Coronavirus). I think that emphasizing this in many different ads in many different targeted ways that do not feel false or redundant is our best bet.
