The Republican Party has released the "best GOP ad ever," in the words of Donald Trump Jr., which ought to tell you just about everything you need to know about it. Playing like a best-of album of right-wing nightmares, the ad features Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.); anarchy; burning limousines; Kathy Griffin and her disembodied Trump head; Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.); comedian Samantha Bee; and, obviously, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).

Unfortunately, in the process of stoking fears of "unhinged" liberals roaming the streets, the ad unintentionally ends up sounding a littttttle hysterical itself. Watch below. Jeva Lange
