With Donald Trump and Kamala Harris now squaring off, the Presidential race has kicked into a whole other gear.
But even with everything that’s already happened, the action has only just begun.
And Donald Trump is going to war against Kamala Harris with this power move.
Donald Trump’s campaign is going on the air to attack Kamala Harris
Vice President Kamala Harris’ coronation as Democrats’ presumptive Presidential nominee without a single vote being cast for her has upended the election.
Voters’ opinion of her hasn’t been cemented anywhere near the degree of public opinion on President Joe Biden.
Harris is trying to run from her time as Biden’s Vice President and her radical left-wing record as a U.S. Senator and 2020 Presidential candidate.
She’s trying to introduce herself to voters as a tough prosecutor.
Former President Donald Trump and Republicans are trying to drive up her negative approval rating with voters before her campaign gets off the ground.
The Trump campaign saw its fundraising take off after the former President was convicted in a Soviet-style show trial in Manhattan in late May.
He sat on his campaign war chest for most of the summer while the Biden campaign lit over $100 million to drop out of the race.
Now, the Trump campaign is attacking Harris for her role as Biden’s border czar in a $12 million TV ad buy in the battleground states of Arizona, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Nevada, Georgia, and Michigan.
These are the first TV ads that the Trump campaign has run since Harris entered the race.
“This is America’s border czar, and she’s failed us. Under Harris, over 10 million illegally here, a quarter of a million Americans dead from fentanyl, brutal migrant crimes, and ISIS now here,” the ad states.
It features a clip of Harris saying she hasn’t been to the border.
“Kamala Harris. Failed. Weak. Dangerously liberal,” the ad concludes.

Kamala Harris facing a barrage from the GOP
The race is on to define Harris to voters.
“She has a second chance to make a first impression,” Democrat pollster Evan Roth Smith said.
Trump and Republican PACs are working hard to ensure voters have a negative impression of Harris.
Wisconsin Republican Party Chair Brian Schimming said that voters would learn she’s a continuation of Biden’s failed Presidency.
“It’s about letting people know that if you didn’t like Joe Biden, you’re really not going to like Kamala Harris,” Schimming said.
In addition to the Trump campaign, Republican political action committees are pummeling Harris, as well.
Trump and allied groups are outspending Harris’ camp by a reported $50.2 million to $21.6 million margin.
Make America Great Again Inc. – a Trump-aligned PAC – is spending $12 million a week in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona until Labor Day for a total of $70 million.
The ads are hitting Harris on her handling of the border and her record as a prosecutor in California.
“Why is our border a chaotic mess? Kamala Harris.”
