President Trump’s reelection team is responding to the latest “Mother’s Day” advertisement from the Biden campaign. The incumbent’s surrogates exploited the holiday to criticize their Republican rival rather than celebrate motherhood.
The ad, which was posted to X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, first featured videos with mothers and their children, having been captioned, “Happy Mother’s Day” written at the bottom of the screen.
The video then went black with only the words, “But not from Donald Trump.”
A clip of President Trump talking about the crisis along the southern border played as he said, “When you say to a family that if you come, we’re gonna break you up, they don’t come.”
Simultaneously, a clip showing a screaming family being separated was displayed.
The video continued, “Under Trump, the government will be allowed to monitor their pregnancies and rip their families apart. Meanwhile, President Biden is fighting to bring back his historic expanded Child Tax Credit to give families a little extra breathing room and ensure paid leave for all Americans.”
Biden’s campaign also blamed President Trump for the supposed blocking of fertility treatments to families, allowing the states to monitor pregnancies, and for saying that women who have an abortion should face “some form of punishment.”
The Biden campaign also added that the 45th president would “proudly” separate mothers from their children, repeal the Affordable Care Act, and increase the cost of living for mothers and families.
The advertisement concluded on a dark screen with the words, “Do the moms in your life a favor. Stop Trump.”
Responding to the video, President Trump’s campaign called the ad “sad” and “miserable,” particularly on Mother’s Day.
“What a sad, miserable, cowardly existence Crooked Joe Biden and his campaign must have to make such a disgusting ad on such a joyous day,” the 45th president’s campaign told Fox News Digital.
They continued, “Their lives are obviously filled with anger, hate, and resentment because they clearly suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
The campaign concluded, “President Trump continues to live rent-free in their pea-sized brains, even on Mother’s Day.”
