Vice President Kamala Harris campaign is preparing their first-ever ads targeting Project 2025, a massive constellation of controversial right-wing policy goals prepared for former President Donald Trumps second term in office.
The 900-page blueprint, assembled by the Heritage Foundation, the Trump-aligned Center for Renewing America and other right-leaning think tanks, has become intensely unpopular. Trump has tried to distance himself from Project 2025, even though hes praised the groups responsible for it, key officials from his administration helped craft it and some of its components match his stated policy goals.
The first ad will start airing in swing states on Tuesday, the campaign said. The 60-second spot focuses on how Project 2025 would make Donald Trump the most powerful president ever, give him the unchecked power to seek vengeance, and eliminate the Department of Education. Hell take control, a male narrator says at the end of the ad. Well pay the price.
In addition to the seven states at the core of the presidential battleground map ― Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada ― the ad will also air in the Palm Beach, Florida, market, which includes Mar-a-Lago, in a clear attempt to bait the former president, who has a penchant for binge-watching cable news.
