Donald Trump in 2024 AdWatch


On Civil Rights: AdWatch: Kamala is for they/them; Trump is for you

Donald Trump's campaign and his allies have spent tens of millions of dollars on political ads focusing on transgender rights issues in the weeks leading up to the election. The Trump campaign has spent more than $19 million on two television ads that have aired nearly 55,000 times since Oct. 1.

The ads focus on taxpayer-funded gender transitions for people in prison and immigrant detainees. They use Vice President Kamala Harris' comments from a 2019 [questionnaire] in which she said she supported transgender inmates having access to gender-affirming surgery.

"Kamala is for they/them," one ad says. "Trump is for you."

The Trump campaign is betting that with time dwindling until Nov. 5, the issue of transgender rights will sway voters more than the economy or immigration. Trump has underscored that on the campaign trail, often repeating a line about "keeping men out of women's sports"--it often gets the most applause at his rallies.
