President Joe Biden’s 2024 reelection campaign ignored the worst storm of criticism the candidate has endured with a $50 million ad blitz announcement Friday.

Biden’s shaky debate performance has rattled the campaign to its core, leading to rare open dissent among some Democrats urging him to be replaced as the Democratic nominee. As the campaign tries to run damage control, it has further sought to assuage doubts by announcing a $50 million ad buy, following an equivalent buy last month.
