The ad is called ‘Limburger,’ a cheese known for its pungent odour

The Lincoln Project, an anti-Trump PAC, released a foul ad doubling down on allegations that former president Donald Trump smells.

Claims around the former president’s alleged odour erupted earlier this week when former Illinois Republican representative Adam Kinzinger tweeted, “I’m genuinely surprised how people close to Trump haven’t talked about the odor. It’s truly something to behold. Wear a mask if you can.”

The Lincoln Project seized upon the resulting social media firestorm with a video advertisement on Saturday, with the caption: “Is that you Donald? #TrumpSmells.”

    He’s also an egomaniac that can’t handle even the smallest forms of mockery. Remember “baby hands”? It got under his skin like crazy. This could actually tank his campaign, even though it feels extremely childish for politics

      can’t handle even the smallest

      Are you saying his hands are small? I have it on his authority that trump has the biggest hands. Yuge. Such big hands you’ve never seen before. People tell me all the time, they say, “Donald has such big hands, I’ve never seen hands so large.” I bet he could palm two basketballs at once. World leaders won’t shake his hand because they’re afraid their hands will look like tiny baby hands by comparison.

        “I’ve had no complaints, believe me”

        Which of course either means that he’s lying, which he usually is when telling people to believe him, or being a rich, powerful, thin-skinned and impossible narcissist have stop people from complaining or insulting him to his face.
