Please watch the Lincoln Project Ad “Fairy Tale”

In its latest and most creative ad, the Lincoln Project successfully parodies the Brothers Grimm Fairy Tales, telling an animated version of the Trump Presidency.

It is called “Fairy Tale” and stars the animated versions of Trump, Putin, McConnell, and Graham.

The ad starts off like any Brother Grimms story.

It talks of a man coming down from his tower to be crowned “the most powerful man on Earth.”

The animated story then quickly devolves into a nightmare where the newly crowned ruler:

  • “Gives money to the rich and takes from the poor.”
  • “Makes friends with our enemies and enemies of our friends.”
  • Lies about the disease “that came upon the land,” lying saying “Fear Not. For it is a hoax and will not harm those who believe in me.” He later says, “as thousands and thousands die,” that “all will disappear with the sip of his magic potion (bleach.)”
  • Attacks people with “noxious gases” when the people “cry for help.” 
  • “Forces children out of their homes and into the plague filled air (to school.)”

The narrator concludes with:

“We’re living in a story as grim as any ever told and the lesson? Vote and send the man back to his tower for good.”

Election Day is in Eight Days.

Heed the moral of the tale and get out and vote.
