Democrats plan to use ads, briefings and other tools during the Republican National Convention next week in an attempt to cut into President Trump's reelection message and tout their own candidate.
The counterprogramming for the GOP convention, which starts Monday, will include TV and digital ads released nationally and in key battleground states hitting Trump over his handling of the coronavirus and other issues.
Organizers from the Democratic National Committee's (DNC) war room and nominee Joe Biden's campaign said in a Friday statement that the Democratic effort will serve "to remind Americans that Trump has really only delivered on one thing — a Chaos Presidency."
The groups will focus on a different theme during each day of the convention, focusing on "family" on Monday, the economy on Tuesday, health care on Wednesday and a “country in crisis†on Thursday – the night Trump is set to formally accept the GOP nomination for reelection.
