Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign on Friday launched a new television ad seeking to tie former President Donald Trump to North Carolina’s Republican gubernatorial nominee Mark Robinson, a day after a bombshell KFile report detailed a series of inflammatory comments Robinson made more than a decade ago. This is the first Harris campaign ad tying Trump to a down-ballot campaign, the Harris campaign told CNN. The spot, titled “Both Wrong” and obtained exclusively by CNN, intersperses Trump’s past praise for Robinson with the gubernatorial candidate’s anti-abortion comments, including him voicing support for a statewide abortion ban that would not include exceptions. It opens with Trump’s comments calling Robinson “an unbelievable lieutenant governor” and referring to him as “better than Martin Luther King” while interspersing with Robinson saying, “For me, there is no compromise on abortion” and “we could pass a bill and say, ‘You can’t have an abortion in North Carolina for any reason.’” The new ad is part of the Harris-Walz campaign’s $370 million in digital and television advertising reservations between Labor Day and Election Day, the Harris campaign told CNN. The spot will begin airing Friday on television across North Carolina markets on a variety of programs including local news, “Jeopardy” and “Wheel of Fortune.” It comes as Harris is traveling to Georgia on Friday for a speech focused on Trump’s role in the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Harris’ remarks are expected to include the recent deaths of Georgia mothers Amber Thurman and Candi Miller, who reportedly died in 2022 because of a lack of care linked to the state’s abortion restrictions.
