One of the central principles throughout Donald Trump’s political career has been how dangerous immigrants are to the American way of life.
According to Trump, they steal jobs, murder and rape. They even abduct pet animals and eat them.

Now the Lincoln Project is flipping that immigration script in a new ad, calling out three billionaire immigrants—Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and Rupert Murdoch--who the LP accuses of using Trump as a mouthpiece and undermining democracy.
“They came to America not to be American but to change what America meant,” the ad opens. “They take American jobs, take over American companies, broadcast propaganda and endanger our sovereignty, poisoning Democracy.”
The ad tags the troika as the “new Axis of Evil.”
Trump’s agenda is their agenda, the ad asserts. “They’re even using Trump to scare Americans into claiming immigrants are dangerous.”
“In their case,” the ad concludes, “they’re right.”
