(GoRealNewsNow.com) – While Americans are struggling to make ends meet due to Bidenomics, Kamala Harris just spent a staggering $50 million on her first campaign ad.

The minute-long spot reintroduces Harris and takes a swipe at her opponent, former President Donald Trump.
“This campaign is about who we fight for,” Harris said in the ad, pulling from her speech at her first rally last week in Milwaukee.
It continued, “We believe in a future where every person has the opportunity not just to get by but to get ahead. But Donald Trump wants to take our country backward. … We are not going back.”
The ad, titled “Fearless,” is the first of many to air in key battleground states. It will be shown on local and national channels, cable, streaming platforms, and social media, including during the Paris Olympic Games and on Love & Hip Hop Atlanta.
Harris campaign Chairwoman Jen O’Malley Dillon said in a statement, “This $50 million paid media campaign, bolstered by our record-setting fundraising haul and a groundswell of grassroots enthusiasm, is one crucial way we will reach and make our case to the voters who will decide this election.”
According to a memo from last weekend, Harris’s campaign Communications Director, Michael Tyler, announced that she had raised $200 million in the week following Joe Biden’s decision to step down from seeking reelection after pressure from Democrats.
Most of this money came from first-time donors, along with over 170,000 new volunteers and supporters organizing grassroots calls. A Zoom call for “White Dudes for Kamala,” which featured a surprise appearance by actor Jeff Bridges, raised $2.5 million alone.
“Meanwhile Donald Trump is scrambling,” Tyler wrote. “He’s scared to debate Vice President Harris. While the Harris coalition is unified and growing, Donald Trump is weighed down by his extensive vulnerabilities…”
Yet, Trump told Fox News on Monday night that he would “probably end up debating” and suggested it should be done “before the votes start being cast.”
