The Lincoln Project released a scorching new ad that slams Comrade Trump for his relationship with Putin. The entire ad is in Russian with English subtitles.

Using Russian propaganda videos as a template, the Lincoln Project mixes photos of Putin and Trump with community symbolism. The narrator, speaking only in Russian, refers to the president as “Comrade Trump.” The ad ends with:

“Russia thanks you for your loyalty and friendship.”

When sharing the ad to Twitter, the Republican Super PAC tweeted, “Trump first, Russia second, and America last.” It was trending within moments.

WATCH:

Twitter loves the new Lincoln Project ad

Only thing that would have made this more perfect is to have ended with ‘I’m Vladimir Putin and I approve this message’

Twitter users are ready for a change.

Donald Trump is miserable.

His polling is abysmal.

His supporters are abandoning him.

And he knows he’s losing.

So let’s put him out of his misery.

Contribute to @JoeBiden and let’s sweep Team Trump into the dustbin of history. https://t.co/PlMbymOdBA pic.twitter.com/MpgBvh0JTs
