Joe Biden's campaign releases new ad preceding Independence Day weekend
President Biden's campaign released a new advertisement on Wednesday, July 3, preceding the Independence Day weekend.
It contends that the Supreme Court's ruling on Monday, July 1, which grants presidents "absolute immunity" from prosecution for official acts, implies that Donald Trump would wield absolute power if reelected, New York Post reported.
“Nearly 250 years ago, America was founded in defiance of a king, under the belief that no one was above the law, not even the President, until now,” the ad begins.
“The same Trump Supreme Court that overturned Roe v Wade ruled that the President can ignore the law, even to commit a crime — because Donald Trump asked them to,” the ad continues. “He’s already led an insurrection, and threatened to be a dictator on Day One. Donald Trump can never hold this office again.”
The advertisement is scheduled to be broadcast in battleground states, aiming specifically at younger voters.
Following the court's decision on Monday, July 1, Biden's reelection team conducted a press call alleging that the ruling handed Trump the "keys to a dictatorship".
Quentin Fulks, the principal deputy campaign manager for Biden-Harris 2024, asserted that "the Supreme Court just gave Trump a remissions slip to assassinate and jail whoever he wants to gain power," calling it "a pivotal moment for our country".
Sarafina Chitika emphasizes importance of celebrating freedoms
Biden-Harris 2024 spokesperson Sarafina Chitika emphasized the importance of celebrating freedoms, honoring troops, and recognizing democracy.
According to Fox News, Chitika remarked, "Today is a day to celebrate the freedoms Donald Trump is trying to rip away, to honor the troops Trump has called ‘suckers’ and ‘losers,’ and to mark the birth of our democracy as convicted felon Donald Trump fights to make himself a dictator."
“This July Fourth, the stakes of the election ahead couldn’t be higher—and everything we value as Americans is on the line," she further added.
Chitika concluded, "Voters will be faced with a decision between Joe Biden—who has fought to protect our freedoms, our democracy, and our troops– and a wannabe despot who only cares about himself. The choice could not be more clear.”
