You know that wonderful “Mourning in America” ad created by Republicans from the Lincoln Project? The one that had Trump in a rage-tweeting tantrum all night? It’s been censored on Facebook. Yes, Mark Zuckerberg’s baby has determined that the ad is “false”, which is just what Trump’s campaign has been screaming. What is false about the ad, you ask? That Trump bailed out Wall Street and not Main Street. Rick Wilson at the Lincoln Project reminds us….
🚨 Millions of Americans are still waiting for their checks.
(USA Today, May 7)
🚨 Thousands of business owners can't get the loans they need to stay open.(NBC News, April 27)
🚨 Multiple research reports show that only: "half of Americans say they got a stimulus payment, and only half of those say it was enough."(Business Insider, April 29)
🚨 But Wall Street banks, hedge funds, huge corporations, and Trump's friends and donors, have cut the line and gotten millions they shouldn't have.(Business Insider, May 1; The Washington Post, April 24)
Wilson goes on to say….
We told the truth about Donald Trump…
He lost his damn mind over it on Twitter...
Attacked us in front of Air Force One...
Then sent his spin machine to discredit us...
And now his allies at Facebook are doing his damage control by censoring the truth he doesn't like.
We will never back down from this fight.
We will hammer him with the truth and the facts.
We all need to support these Republicans who are fighting to bring down Trump.

Thanks so much everyone. I stopped doing diaries in 2008 when people were so cruel I left Kos for a while. Now I comment but don’t write. I was so nervous about posting this, but I thought it was important enough to overcome my fears. Thanks for taking it seriously. Oh, and by the way- I’m dorothyinchina because when I joined Kos I lived in Beijing, but I moved back in 2008 and never changed my user name.
