Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign recently launched a new ad highlighting the support she has garnered from Republicans and former Trump administration officials. The ad, which began airing in North Carolina, features endorsements from prominent figures such as Ret. Gen. Stanley McChrystal and former GOP Rep. Liz Cheney.
The ad opens with news coverage showcasing Republicans endorsing Harris, followed by Gen. McChrystal praising her character, stating, “She has the kind of character that’s gonna be necessary in the presidency.” The ad also includes footage from a recent rally with Liz Cheney, where she expressed her support for Harris, emphasizing their shared commitment to the country.
The narrator of the ad emphasizes Harris’ broad support base, which includes former generals, secretaries of defense, secretaries of the Army Navy and Air Force, CIA directors, and National Security Council leaders from both Democratic and Republican administrations. The ad also mentions endorsements from Republican members of Congress and former Trump administration officials.
This ad is part of a strategic effort by the Harris campaign to appeal to Republican voters. In addition to the new ad, the campaign has organized events with prominent Republicans, such as the recent rally with Liz Cheney and an upcoming event in Pennsylvania featuring former Trump administration officials. Previous campaign ads have also featured clips of former administration members criticizing former President Donald Trump.
