New Political Ads From Biden And Trump Camps
[guest post by Dana]
Here are a few recently released Trump campaign ads with a different line of attack on Joe Biden:
The 30-second TV ads – running in North Carolina, Arizona, Florida and Georgia in English and Spanish – don’t feature Trump at all, except for a brief photo at the end during the mandatory declaration that he approves the message. Instead, they feature the former vice president – who has had trouble exciting progressives in the Democratic Party – with such leftist figures as democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York and Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.
The first ad is called “Takeover,” and it’s in the dramtaically-narrated style that the campaign seems to favor:

The second ad called “Cards” is unusually quiet for a Trump ad:
Clearly, the battleground states are expanding:
A CBS News/YouGov poll released Sunday shows Biden up by 4 percentage points in North Carolina – with 48% supporting Biden and 44% backing Trump – and a single point in long reliably-red Georgia, where Biden has the support of 46% of those polled compared to 45% for Trump. Because of the margin of error in polling, the two men are virtually tied in those states.
Trump is investing in those states in part because early voting and absentee voting starts in September or October.
“The countdown clock may show 91 days left in the race, but in reality the election starts a lot sooner than that,” Trump 2020 campaign manager Bill Stepien said in a statement. “In many states, more than half of voters will cast their votes well before Election Day and we have adjusted our strategy to reflect that. Joe Biden is continuing to spend millions of dollars a week in states that won’t come online for two months and we encourage him to keep at it.”
Biden’s camp jumped on Trump’s insensitive comment regarding US deaths from Covid-19 made during his recent interview with Jonathan Swan. With an enormous ad buy, Team Biden is reportedly going to be shifting their focus of attack to the President’s handling of the pandemic. Biden tweeted “It Is What It Is”:
Thousands of Americans are dying every week. The President's response?

Another recent ad, “Donna,” features a grandma lamenting not being able to see her grandchildren in person because of virus risks and Trump’s ineffective response to the pandemic:
Joe Biden’s campaign says it has reserved $280 million in television and digital advertising that it plans to use largely to hammer President Donald Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
The presumptive Democratic nominee’s ads will often run 60 seconds rather than the more typical 30-second commercials, and will frequently feature Biden speaking directly into a camera, campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon said in a memo Wednesday. The ads will air in 15 states the campaign believes will be competitive in November’s election…
The reservations, which include $220 million for television and $60 million in digital ads, underscore Biden aides’ belief that this year’s election offers Democrats a wide playing field, with a large number of possible paths for Biden to reach 270 electoral votes.
The states in Biden’s advertising plan include 10 that Trump won in 2016. Three — Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — are the “blue wall” that Trump toppled. Five more — Arizona, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and Texas — are growing southern and southwestern states with increasingly diverse populations. The remaining two are Iowa and Ohio, states that former President Barack Obama won twice, but that have shifted in Republicans’ favor in recent years, with Trump winning both in 2016.
Biden’s buy also includes five states Hillary Clinton won in 2016: Colorado, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire and Virginia.
A sign of the times: Due to Covid-19 concerns, Biden is expected to accept his nomination with a speech delivered from his home in Delaware, and Trump has confirmed that he plans to deliver his nomination acceptance speech from the White House.
Only 90 days left until the election.
ADDED: Because this is apparently what we deserve:

Good morning.
Dana (292df6) — 8/5/2020 @ 9:27 amBest Add: Trump’s with the women holding signs. Feels like it might impact ppl that haven’t made up their minds.
Worst Add: The one that says Biden is a radical leftist. I think Trump Fans will love it but I doubt it’s going to change any minds or get anyone to head the polls that weren’t already planning to .

They don’t need to say Joe is a radical Leftist.
Just show images of Portland, Minneapolis, Seattle, Chicago, Baltimore, NYC etc. and let them know a Biden admin. will be bringing the same sort of ‘leadership’ that encourages this lawlessness, rioting and hate for the country to a city near them soon.

Ha, ha, ha! Trump already has that portion of the Bell Curve.
nk (1d9030) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:03 amIt seems that 60 second ads are pretty risky. Your own voters will probably love them, but those on the fence are likely to tune them out. And no matter how slickly they will be produced, Biden simply doesn’t have the charisma that his former boss had, so at best he should probably only appear in maybe 10 of the 60 seconds.
And I think focusing on COVID might be a bad strategy. It could end up reminding people of the statewide closures that most Democrat governors favored, and the jobs losses and budgetary havoc that has resulted. I would divide my ad spend along something like the following lines:
1/4 positive ads talking about Joe Biden and how well-liked he is in Washington
1/4 ads promising the whole panoply of Democrat social spending priorities
1/4 ads bashing President Trump for his COVID response
1/4 ads bashing President Trump for the chaos his administration has sown.
All ads would be 30 seconds, but I would purchase a 60-second time slot. I would pair an ad bashing Trump, which would always come first, with a positive ad about Biden or Democrat ambitions always following. And I would make sure that each ad only ran about 27 seconds long, so that there would always be a few seconds of music fade-out or even silence between them.

Is this still a turn-out-your-base election, or do the sides think that they need to appeal to independents in order to prevail? It seems to me that both bases are pretty riled up and likely to vote, so I would be trying to win over some undecideds right about now.
JVW (ee64e4) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:10 amThe Trump ad in a nutshell: ‘The Silent Majority.’
Awesome. =mike-drop=
______
The Biden ad:
OMG– who the hell has square, 1960’s-era Kodak Instamatic ‘printed on Kodak paper’ type photos with images of kids with tablets and laptop computers in 2020?????
What, no rotary phones, Plagiarist JoeyBee?
Yes, the vim and vigor of 60 year old ‘ready to retire’ types cranking about a transient virus is an inspiring future for America. Lincoln’s memorable campaign against cholera was awesome, too!
DCSCA (797bc0) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:18 amI agree re the length of the ads. 60 seconds is too long. The point needs to be driven home in 30 seconds, which is still long enough to tell a story and yet not too long to have viewers tune out. Of course, 30 seconds is a bigger challenge to campaigns. Frankly, I found both Trump ads boring; I feel like they’ve been done before. Biden was smart to use Trump’s own callousness against himself. The President needs to be very careful in what he says and how he says it. (OK, so I just made myself laugh with that…)
Dana (292df6) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:22 amI think both sides are just in a similar position, and are simply voting against the other candidate and not because they think they have a great candidate at hand.
Dana (292df6) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:23 amOne candidate has practically every newspaper magazine and tv station, teacher and large blocs of corporate america covering for him. So paid advertising slightly balances things
Narciso (7404b5) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:28 amClearly Trump is going for the “Suburban Lifestyle” voters with that second ad.
Paul Montagu (bd1e46) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:38 amMy eyes are glazing over after watching the content of both ads. I’m more interested in where the ads are playing and how much they’re paying, by both candidates. Following the money is a sure sign of what their internal polling is telling ’em.
BTW,
“and Spanish”? What does Trump think he’s doing, asking people who don’t even speak English to go out and vote for him? Some conservative he is.
nk (1d9030) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:40 amPeople who have experience with thecommunist assholes youre so keen on.
Narciso (7404b5) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:48 amThe “where” is interesting for Trump, because Trump won the following four states in 2016, and three of them weren’t that close, so he’s shoring up his base instead of trying to make inroads.
Paul Montagu (bd1e46) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:50 amArizona, Trump by 3.6%
Florida, Trump by 1.2%
Georgia, Trump by 5.1%
North Carolina, Trump by 3.6%
That’s besides the point, or I’d be asking why only Spanish, and not also Polish, German (East), Vietanmese, or Slovenian.
The point is should people who don’t even speak American vote in American elections? Trump seems to be in favor of that, it seems to me. In fact, he’s encouraging it.
nk (1d9030) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:54 amWeve seen the ezekiel emmanuel plan in action, you like.
Narciso (7404b5) — 8/5/2020 @ 10:55 amThat’s another thing as well: Why is Trump implementing it? Killing all the old people in accordance with Zeke Emanuel’s plan, including death panels to decide who gets ventilators and vaccination?

Sammy Finkelman (fe6a9b) — 8/5/2020 @ 11:01 amDepending on how they’re written and produced, I think the longer ads might work for Biden.
If he comes across as a regular guy, and a relatable, non-threatening grown-up, it would contrast with Trump’s lunacy and also defeat his attempts to caricature Biden as a wild-eyed radical.
Hopefully Biden will outline a plan for how we defeat the pandemic and turn the economy around. No need to go into great detail – simply being able to talk believably and empathetically about what we’ve gone through, the mess we’re currently in, and how we go forward to get out, will drive home the message of what a hopeless failure Trump has been.
Optimism from somebody who sounds like they know what they’re talking about, in other words.

Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 8/5/2020 @ 11:16 amTrump thoughtfully wrote another Biden COVID ad today:

He’s been saying the same thing since February. How’s that been working out, America?
Dave (1bb933) — 8/5/2020 @ 11:16 amHe’d better reach for his apology chain, and quick…
Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 8/5/2020 @ 11:16 amNo, no, no, Mr. Dave! DCSCA has had it right from the very beginning. Trump is a Commie plot to destroy conservatism in America and to have the people voting Communist for the next 200 years. Why, even two out of his three wives are from Communist countries and four of his five kids are only half American with the other half Communist.

Sorry fellow NeverTrumpers, Biden sucks. He totally sucks at everything. Thin skinned, thinks he is smarter than he is.
And all these ads suck too. I know there are riots. I know there’s a pandemic. I get it. Half the commenters here can come up with a more positive vision for our future than whoever made these ads for the price of a Ferrari.

nk (1d9030) — 8/5/2020 @ 11:35 amThe “it is what it is” ad really isn’t an ad. It’s a tweet, but it is the best of the lot.
It’s a smart strategy to hold Trump’s buffoonery, ineptitude and total lack of empathy for the American people up against him.

Given Hidin’ Biden’s history with mass incarceration for minor drug crimes which disproportionately affect minorities and the poor, was it a good idea to ask a member of the black and hispanic press if they were junkies?
Be effing honest/lucid for a change: if Trump had done this, the world would never hear the end of it.
Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 8/5/2020 @ 11:41 amCH, 3 things
Time123 (c9382b) — 8/5/2020 @ 11:51 am1. You’re right, there are examples of Trump being taken literally when he was probably joking. It’s hard to identify these because of his history of claiming he was joking when he appeared to be serious.
2. If Biden was joking it was a tasteless joke.
3. Nice concern trolling.
4. People give someone ‘on their side’ the benefit of the doubt. For instance christians as a gourpd didn’t seem very upset when Trump said “Two Corinthians” Partly this is partisanship, partly it’s giving people the benefit of the doubt.
This just in… an individual who goes by a moniker associated with the Hogan’s Heroes TV show was among those arrested on August 1, 2020 when federal revenuers swept through Beattyville, Ky and arrested locals operating stills.

Dave (1bb933) — 8/5/2020 @ 11:53 amWell I’m not trolling. I think the nation is set up for a rough few years with either candidate, both parties are fully aware of it, neither have the spine to do the right thing, and it will mean a lot of negative outcomes. On the right, some say Andrew Cuomo should replace Biden, and on the left some say Trump could be replaced with Haley or whoever.
I think it’s fair to call this concern trolling, but it’s also a damn good idea.
Dustin (4237e0) — 8/5/2020 @ 11:55 amAt least not until he did something equally stupid an hour or two later.

Trump has said that eventually that will turn out to be true.
And Democrats will have to agree – otherwise they would have to give him credit for pushing through immune plasma, or antibodies or a vaccine before the medical establishment was ready to. Better to say it went away by itself than that Trump made it go away.
They’re very, very afraid. I mean, he got the Wollman ice skating rink built and now that the prospect of losing an election has concentrated his mind…

Kodak reportedly under SEC investigation over disclosure of U.S. drug producing deal
The Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating Eastman Kodak’s disclosure about getting awarded a $765 million loan from the U.S. government to start producing drug ingredients, which sent the stock up on heavy volume ahead of the official announcement, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.
On July 27, a day before Kodak, as well as President Donald Trump, announced the deal to make ingredients in generic drugs in response to the coronavirus pandemic, shares of the film pioneer soared nearly 25% with trading volumes far exceeding those in previous sessions.

Exclusive: Trump campaign seeks early September presidential debate
The Trump campaign is asking the Commission on Presidential Debates to move up the last presidential debate to the first week in September to get ahead of an expected surge in early voting.
……
Giuliani has been leading the campaign’s discussions with the debate commission, which also includes asking the commission to add a fourth debate.
If the commission declines to add a fourth debate, the letter asks that the debate currently scheduled for Oct. 22 be moved up to the first week in September, before the first ballots are sent on Sept. 4 in North Carolina.
……..“By the time of the first presidential debate on September 29, 2020, …… as many as eight million Americans in 16 states will have already started voting,” Giuliani writes in the letter, calling the current timetable “an outdated dinosaur.”
…..The letter also includes a list of suggested moderators ……and asks the commission to solidify backup plans for “a simple studio format with no audience” for presidential and vice presidential debates in case of further coronavirus complications.
Rip Murdock (d2a2a8) — 8/5/2020 @ 1:48 pm…….
Full list of proposed moderators: Bret Baier, Gerry Baker, Maria Bartiromo, Shannon Bream, David Brody, Rachel Campos-Duffy, Kevin Cirilli, Larry Elder, Saagar Enjeti, Harris Faulkner, Major Garrett, Michael Goodwin, Ambrosio Hernandez, Joe Kernen, Hoda Kotb, Susan Li, Bill Hemmer, Hugh Hewitt, Tom Llamas, Dagen McDowell, David Muir, Norah O’Donnell, Charles Payne, Rick Santelli.
