Harris Campaign Trolls Trump With Ad Buy

August 30, 2024 · 7:59 am ET · Leave a Comment

“Kamala Harris’ latest ad buy likely won’t net her a win in Florida, but it’s sure to get under Donald Trump’s skin. Her campaign ran an attack ad in battleground states across the country on Tuesday and in Florida, which has been a safely red state since 2016,” the Daily Beast reports.

“The decision to shell out precious campaign cash in the Sunshine State appeared to be a perplexing one, but the campaign’s intentions became more clear after The Bulwark reported the advertisement was only run in the media market of West Palm Beach—home to Trump and his estate at Mar-a-Lago.”

2024 Campaign

From our partner:

Same Election. Different Stories.

Election Day brings a flood of political news — and which sources you follow can shape the story you see.

That's why I appreciate what Ground News does. It shows how the same story is covered across the political spectrum — and highlights important stories that one side may be ignoring entirely.

And when the votes are counted and everyone starts debating what they mean, it's a useful way to get a broader view.

Take a look for yourself. Political Wire readers get 40% off Ground News Vantage at ground.news/politicalwire.
