President Trump is the star of a new $800,000 advertising campaign from the super PAC affiliated with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., that goes on the attack against Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va.
The spot from Senate Leadership Fund, to run on broadcast and cable television and on radio and digital platforms in West Virginia, never mentions or displays an image of Manchin’s Republican challenger, state Attorney General Patrick Morrisey. Rather, the 30-second ad features footage of Trump criticizing Manchin’s voting record, and includes visuals of the senator paired with former President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2016.
