Trump-aligned Pacs will unleash wave of attacks, including TV ads, on record as vice-president and past in California

Donald Trump is scrambling to pivot his campaign against Kamala Harris, with attack ads hitting her current record in office and her past in California, according to two sources familiar with the matter, after Joe Biden withdrew from the 2024 race on Sunday.

The Trump campaign is viewing Harris as the presumptive Democratic nominee, especially after Biden gave his endorsement, and started preparing opposition research dossiers against her in recent weeks. But as much as Biden’s withdrawal has left Democrats floundering ahead of its nominating convention next month, it has in many ways also flummoxed the Trump campaign.

Trump-aligned political action committees such as MAGA Inc will unleash a wave of attacks against Harris, including a $5m television ad in the battleground states of Pennsylvania, Georgia and Arizona, casting her as the puppet master in the Biden administration.

You're really relying a lot on that assumption. When's the last time you even heard her speak? She's a fucking prosecutor in her 50's and the current VP of the United States. Donald Trump is an 80 year old convict who shits his pants. Good luck with that delusion.

So you're going to pretend Kamala doesn't spew word salads? lol Must be deep fakes huh? And.. "shits his pants"... think you had a brain fart being that it was Biden who was accused for shitting his pants during a ceremony.

I'm not going to pretend, because I know she doesn't.
