Lincoln Project ad taunting Trump over civil fraud trial to air in West Palm Beach market

Expecting that Donald Trump will be back in Palm Beach for the remainder of the week, The Lincoln Project says it will welcome him back with a taunting television commercial that will start airing in the West Palm Beach market Wednesday evening.

The group, started by "Never Trump" Republicans during the now-Florida resident's term in the White House, said the one-minute spot will run 56 times this week on Fox News shows hosted by Jesse Watters and Sean Hannity. The commercial ridicules Trump over the ongoing New York fraud case.

Trump left the $250 million civil trial on Wednesday afternoon seething, reportedly saying the state's judicial system is "corrupt" and calling New York Attorney General Letitia James a "political animal." James was having none of it vowing she would not "be bullied” and calling Trump's attendance at the proceedings a “political stunt" to help him raise money.

The Lincoln Project ad, with music and imagery reminiscent of the HBO show "Succession," scoffs at Trump. It mocks him saying he is "broke and busted," calls him a "fraud, a con and a low rent rip-off artist" and derides him, saying the courts are "shutting down your crooked" companies.

"You'll have to sell everything," it says.
