Trump Campaign Fires a Barrage of Negative Advertisements
What's the Story?
The Trump campaign has launched a series of negative advertisements attacking Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.
The ads, which began airing on Monday, accuse Biden of being a socialist, a puppet of the left, and mentally unfit to be president.
They also highlight Biden's past gaffes and stumbles, and paint him as a weak and ineffective leader.
Why is this Important?
The Trump campaign's decision to go negative so early in the campaign suggests that they are concerned about Biden's strength as a candidate.
The ads are likely to further polarize the already-divided electorate and could make it more difficult for Biden to win over moderate voters.
They could also damage Biden's reputation and make it harder for him to unite the Democratic Party behind his candidacy.
What's Next?
The Biden campaign has denounced the Trump ads as "false and misleading."
They have accused the Trump campaign of trying to distract voters from the real issues facing the country.
The Biden campaign is expected to respond with its own negative ads in the coming weeks.
