American Bridge posts 1,043-page Trump oppo book online

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/08/07/american-bridge-trump-oppo-book-392536

In the 2016 campaign, Hillary Clinton’s campaign paid for the opposition research book on Donald Trump compiled by the liberal Super PAC American Bridge.

In 2020, American Bridge is putting it online for free.

The group on Friday published 1,043 pages of its research document on Trump on a new website that was used internally before. It wants the material in public view not so much for voters, but for other Democratic groups to use to campaign against the president.

“After spending years investigating Donald Trump, his grifter family, and cabinet of cronies, American Bridge 21st Century has compiled the most extensive and exhaustive public file on the president,” said Pat Dennis, Research Director for the Trump War Room at American Bridge 21st Century. The website in particular focuses on Trump’s response to Covid-19, corruption, and then various other issue areas.

Won’t MF45’S campaign use these points to fend off attacks And twist them and be able to prepare comebacks? Frank Luntz right now is probably making up rebuttal talking points!!!!

But keep them swatting flies. Every minute they have to spend addressing something is a minute they won't be spewing their standard BS.

And of course there's Rump's own losing battle with the truth. After a while, who believes the denials (except, of course, for his drooling, rabid worshippers, but they're a lost cause anyway)?

The dirt is all there, cross referenced in excruciating detail, much of it quite current. Even though there are unlikely to be any new bombshells to find, that was a generous gesture on AB's part.
