President Joe Biden's reelection campaign hit former President Donald Trump on his manufacturing and auto industry records in an ad debuting ahead of Trump's speech to autoworkers in Michigan on Wednesday.
"He says he stands with autoworkers. But as president, Donald Trump passed tax breaks for his rich friends, while automakers shuttered their plants and Michigan lost manufacturing jobs," the ad titled "Delivers" said.
The ad — which showed Trump playing golf, cut with footage of Biden meeting with and speaking to workers — will air on national television and digital platforms in Michigan. Specifically, it will run in Detroit, Grand Rapids, and Lansing.
It is part of the Biden campaign's $25 million 16-week ad campaign that targets voters in battleground states. The advertising campaign also includes what has been the largest and earliest amount spent by a reelection campaign in Hispanic and black media markets.
"Joe Biden said he'd stand up for workers, and he's delivering. Passing laws that are increasing wages and creating good-paying jobs. Manufacturing is coming back to Michigan because Joe Biden doesn't just talk, he delivers," the ad continued.
