The Trump campaign and a top allied super PAC have recently launched new TV ads in battleground Pennsylvania, featuring comments made by Vice President Kamala Harris on 'The View' earlier this month. During her appearance on the show, Harris was asked if she would have done something differently than President Biden, to which she responded that nothing comes to mind as she has been a part of most decisions.
These remarks by Harris have become a focal point for GOP attacks, with critics eager to draw attention to the connection between the vice president and President Biden, whose approval rating is currently below water. The Trump campaign aired its first ad containing the clip on October 16 and has since spent over $13 million on broadcasting it.
AdImpact data reveals that Republican advertisers in the presidential race have collectively spent more than $20 million this month on broadcast TV ads replaying Harris' response. This particular moment has emerged as a significant point of attack as the White House race enters its final stretch.
