Oh, Look! Some Last-Minute Lying Ads In Georgia's Special Election! Starring Mister BARACK OBAMA!
Here's Barack Obama endorsing a Republican, you bet
The special election for Georgia's Sixth Congressional District is TODAY -- be sure to round up all your illegal alien friends and make sure they vote for Jon Ossoff! (Tell them he's Colombian.) As you might expect in the last days of a hotly contested election that's going to be the most expensive House race ever, there's all sorts of last-minute fuckery going on -- beyond the fuckery we documented yesterday, even.
Take, for instance, this ad that seems to feature Barack Obama urging black Georgians to vote Republican. No, that wasn't a typo. The ad, designed for radio and Twitter, from pro-Trump super-PAC "Great America Alliance," starts out with Trump's African-American surrogate Autry Pruitt complaining about how Democrats only seem to care about black people at election time (the video version has shots of prominent Dems in the background):
It may seem out of season, but all of a sudden, Democratic politicians have started coming around again. We normally only see them every other November, swarming around and making promises to get our vote. But nothing ever changes for us, does it?
And then it's time for the pivot to a snippet of Obama reading from Dreams For My Father -- in the book, Barry's quoting a Chicago barber named "Smitty," but the ad doesn't bother with those details, and is content to let us think these are Barack Obama's own opinions:

Good, I was tired of this dumb conversation and tired of wasting monitor ink over a zealot anyways
Comrade Stalin stayed up all night, in fact.
