Joe Biden, the Democrats, and the mainstream media (but I repeat myself) have been banging on the “Trump is an existential threat to democracy” drum for years now.
The mantra worked for quite a while, but according to the polls, the sting has been taken out of this thorn. People are done with the argument. It no longer works.

Now, the Trump people are striking back, and it is a great time to do so. The lawfare against Trump is pretty obvious, the news that the FBI was authorized to use deadly force (Andy McCarthy thinks it’s no big deal, but that’s not how most people see it), the protests on university campuses, and a general sense of chaos and decline make people think that things are spinning out of control.
People look around and see that things aren’t right, and Trump’s new ad puts the blame where it belongs: Biden and the Democrats, who have been promoting violence and chaos.
Now, it’s true that presidents aren’t responsible for all the good or bad things that happen during their terms. They are men, not gods. But let’s face it: Biden has been the author of many of the horrible things happening, as are many of his fellow Democrats. They cheered on BLM riots, and they perpetrated hoax after hoax, pushing racial division, authoritarian mandates, lawfare, antisemitism, and increased suspicion and division in our society.
Biden spends an inordinate amount of time attacking MAGA extremists, calling people racist, telling Black students they can never succeed in America, claiming Republicans hate gays and minorities, and generally stirring up hatred. It has been his political strategy: stir up hate and buy off constituencies. Rinse, repeat.
Americans already see Biden as a failed president based on his record, and the Democrats know that. Their trump card, they believe, is the “danger to democracy” argument. It is the one thing they have left. Biden is not just down in the polls; people don’t even like him as a person anymore.
James Comey was on MSNBC making this case. You may not like Joe Biden, but Trump is dangerous!
“He’s coming for them… I don’t care how you feel about Joe Biden, you must vote for him…”

This ad aims at exactly that argument, and I think the seed they are planting will land in fertile soil. Trotting out James Comey actually reminds people of how state power has been abused against Trump and his supporters.

Vote for the staus quo!
Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden promised to “bring back normalcy” because the Democrats control the violence that happens around the country. However, when his stupidity allowed Iran to refill their coffers (dried up by Trump’s sanctions) and start a war in Gaza, which much of his constituency supports, and he showed some initial support for Israel’s right to defend herself against barbaric terrorism, this constituency turned on him. The violence (LEFTIST normalcy) returned. There’s nothing he can do about it; his financial supporters are behind it.
Everything the left has tried has failed. If they ever intended to improve conditions in our country, they failed. They wrecked the economy. The destroyed energy independence. They destroyed a secured border. They destroyed peace in the Middle East. All they have left is corrupt, illegal and third-world methods to desperately cling to power, because they fear an accounting of their anti-American activities.
