HOLY CRAP, YOU GUYS. This offering from American Bridge 21st Century, a Democratic super PAC, is about to turn this presidential election on its head.
Gird your loins and get ready to be blown away:
We took balloons to @marcorubio's office, you won't believe what happens next.

Bursting with pride, eh? You sure about that, Christie?

@JohnEkdahl Why would you even bother releasing that?
— Noah Rothman (@NoahCRothman) January 12, 2016
Fair question. Unless American Bridge is full of masochists, in which case we totally understand why they’d bother releasing that.
Sick burn. #idiotshttps://t.co/rmgw7Edko8

So basically, you handed things to a Rubio staffer who totally kept his shit together.
WOW WHAT GREAT TROLLING https://t.co/WsSSbxbcC6

Right now at @American_Bridge:
*phone rings*
"Rubio for President"
"Hey, is your refrigerator running?"
"Yes"
"THEN GO CATCH IT!"
— Nathan Wurtzel (@NathanWurtzel) January 12, 2016
That sounds about right.
@BuzzFeedAndrew What’s weird is that they shot it and were like, “Yes, this was a successful bit, let’s make sure to get it online.”

@American_Bridge @marcorubio i really hope this was free. you didn't pay anything for this, did you?
— Ryan (@alwaysonoffense) January 12, 2016
I wonder how American Bridge thought this might go. Surely not as dumb as it turned out, right? https://t.co/LtpcF4t08D

American Bridge may not do much for us politically, but as far as entertainment value goes, they’re hard to beat.
