New Biden for President TV Ad “Knock On The Door”

New Ad Features Veteran Testimonial to Reach Military Families in Battleground States

Today, Biden for President is unveiling a new ad to reach veterans and military families in key battleground states. The ad will air on television and be featured on digital platforms in Arizona, Florida, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Wisconsin, targeting media markets and areas with a high number of military households and veterans.

“Knock On The Door” features Brigadier General John Douglass, U.S. Air Force (Ret.), a former casualty notification officer. Douglass is a veteran who grew up in Florida and now splits time between Virginia and Florida.

In the ad, he talks about his experiences knocking on the doors of military families letting them know their beloved ones won’t be returning home. “These military families suffer, and those spouses are not suckers. And those children are not losers. It’s obvious that this president has no real empathy just shows he doesn’t get it,” General Douglass says.

Earlier this month, following Donald Trump’s reported comments in The Atlantic disparaging American troops and veterans , Biden for President launched a digital ad campaign geared towards military families on digital platforms near military bases like Fort McCoy in Wisconsin or Fort Bragg in North Carolina.

The campaign’s ongoing paid media program includes $65 million in spend this week across broadcast and digital. The campaign’s ads remain active in a total of ten states, including Arizona, Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio, Nebraska, and Minnesota.

Earlier this week, the campaign released six new ads also airing in key states:
• “Little Brother” and “Anthony” feature testimonials from families who support Biden for his commitment to health care and protecting Americans with pre-existing conditions;
• “Unforgivable” and“Do Your Job” feature direct messages from Biden criticizing the Trump Administration’s failures;
• “Engine” highlights Joe Biden’s American manufacturing plan as part of his Build Back Better Agenda; and
• “Totally Negligent” features a Trump-Biden voter in Pennsylvania who blames Trump’s negligence for failing to control the virus and help the economy.

New Donald Trump TV Ad "Abraham Accords"

New Trump campaign ad hails peace deals with Israel & Arab nations

President Trump’s re-election campaign today released a new ad hailing the peace accords brokered by the President between Israel and Arab nations Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates. The ad, titled “Abraham Accords,” goes into the existing television buy and will run on national cable television and on local television in Florida markets and Philadelphia.

President Trump pulled off the historic peace agreements critics thought could never be accomplished, proving again that his leadership has restored the United States to its rightful place as the world’s leader in diplomacy. The President’s record stands in stark contrast to Joe Biden, who has been wrong on nearly every foreign policy issue over the last four decades, according to his former Defense Secretary, Robert Gates.

The Trump campaign announced this week it had increased its television advertising buy by 50 percent, ramping up its presence in key states with early voting and expanding its national cable buy. The overall eight-figure buy is running on national cable, and local broadcast and cable in the following states: North Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Nebraska (2nd Congressional District), and Maine (2nd Congressional District). The Trump campaign also announced it was expanding its existing urban radio buy to include Pennsylvania markets.

New Trump Campaign Ads Tout President’s Economic Record

New Trump campaign ads tout President’s economic record, blast Biden

President Trump’s re-election campaign today released two new ads in the rotation for its existing television buy, highlighting the President’s excellent record on the economy and contrasting it with Joe Biden’s disastrous history and terrible proposals. One ad, titled “Economic Roundtable,” features real Americans having a discussion about their distrust of Biden and their firm belief that President Trump’s policies are right for the country. Another spot, titled “Chad,” features a business owner who credits President Trump for his company’s success and describes Biden’s record of coddling China and leading his family to profit from his own political career. “Economic Roundtable” is running on cable television while “Chad” is airing in Arizona.

President Trump built the world’s best economy once and is already doing it a second time. As vice president, Joe Biden oversaw the worst economic recovery since the Great Depression and today proposes to raise taxes by $4 trillion, killing the economic comeback underway. Biden voted for the job-killing NAFTA trade deal and has a history of arguing for China’s interests, costing the United States 60,000 factories and 3.5 million jobs.

The Trump campaign announced this week it had increased its television advertising buy by 50 percent, ramping up its presence in key states with early voting and expanding its national cable buy. The ads in the eight-figure buy focus on the economy, which will be the defining issue of the race, and contrasts President Trump’s strong economic record with Joe Biden’s 47 years of failure. The ads are running on national cable, and local broadcast and cable in the following states: North Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Nebraska (2nd Congressional District), and Maine (2nd Congressional District). The Trump campaign also announced it was expanding its existing urban radio buy to include Pennsylvania markets.

Biden for President Launches Battleground Ads Touting American Manufacturing and Trump-Biden Voter

Biden for President Launches Battleground Ads Touting American Manufacturing and Trump-Biden Voter

As part of the campaign’s growing paid media program, Biden for President is launching a pair of 0:60 television spots today that underscore how American manufacturing and union jobs will be central to America’s economic recovery. The new ads will air on select television markets in key battleground states and on digital platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

In Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, “Engine” highlights a key plan of Joe Biden’s economic recovery plan for working families to ensure our country builds back better, making significant investments in American manufacturing — an engine of new prosperity. The ad pulls from Biden’s July speech in Dunmore, Pennsylvania where he announced the first plank of his build back better agenda to ensure the future is “Made in America” by all of America’s workers.

In Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Minnesota, the campaign will showcase a testimonial from a Trump-Biden voter. “Totally Negligent” features Rick, a voter from Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, who says he made a mistake voting for Donald Trump in 2016 and won’t make the same mistake in 2020. He calls Trump “totally negligent” for failing to control the virus and help the economy, and says that Biden is the leader who has a plan to turn it around.

The ads are part of Biden for President’s ongoing paid media program, which includes $65 million in spend this week across broadcast and digital. The campaign’s ads remain active in a total of ten states, including Arizona, Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio, Nebraska, and Minnesota.

Yesterday, Biden for President released four new ads also airing in key states. “Little Brother” and “Anthony” feature testimonials from families who support Biden for his commitment to health care and protecting Americans with pre-existing conditions, and “Unforgivable” and“Do Your Job” feature direct messages from Biden criticizing the Trump Administration’s failures.

Donald Trump Campaign Statement on Big Ten Returning to Football

Donald Trump Campaign Statement on Big Ten Returning to Football

“This is huge news, not just for college football fans, but for all Americans looking for key indicators that we can reopen our society and our economy, and do so safely. President Trump has been publicly advocating for the Big Ten and other conferences to return to the field, directly engaging with the Conference and Commissioner Warren, and it’s a triumph to see the unanimous vote of the member schools to begin the football schedule next month. Important in their decision were the vast progress in same-day coronavirus testing capabilities and improvements in general public health, proving that the President’s unprecedented response to a public health crisis is working. College football is an enormous part of fall Saturdays for millions of Americans, and it is coming back, thanks in no small part to the leadership of President Trump. We know that Joe Biden would not have pushed for this, since he has looked for every reason to keep our country closed for as long as possible, because he believes it would help him politically.”

- Bill Stepien, Trump 2020 campaign manager
