‘Comrade’ Trump Gets ‘Endorsement’ from Putin in New Mock Ad by Lincoln Project

GOP organization the Lincoln Project hit President Trump on Thursday with a Russian-language ad offering a mock "endorsement" from Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The new ad, entitled "Fellow Traveler," says in Russian with English subtitles that "Comrade Trump" has "once again" gotten Putin's blessing in the run-up to November's general election.

"The most important endorsement Donald Trump received in 2016 was not from your Senate Leader Mitch McConnell [R-Ky.]," the ad's English translation reads. "Donald Trump received the most important endorsement in 2016 from our great leader, Vladimir Putin."
