The immigration ad wars have arrived, at least digitally.
Priorities
USA, the “super PAC” supporting Mrs. Clinton, has released a digital ad
that uses Mr. Trump’s statements to paint the entire Republican
presidential field as
hostile toward immigrants, focusing in particular on Jeb Bush and Gov.
Scott Walker of Wisconsin.
The
super PAC will start airing the 30-second spot, titled “This Is the
Republican Party,” in Colorado, Florida and Nevada, states with large
Hispanic populations.
It
makes a clear suggestion that there is no daylight between Mr. Trump
and the 16 other candidates. The ad opens with Mr. Trump’s announcement
speech in June, in which
he said many Mexican immigrants were “rapists.” The video then cuts to
audio of Mr. Bush using the term “anchor babies,” for which Democrats
have criticized him for days. Mr. Walker makes the briefest cameo,
stating the first of what became three competing
positions in the last week on the question of ending birthright
citizenship.
The
ad buy won’t be close to what a super PAC will ultimately spend on
television spots. But it signals the approach that the outside group
will use in the coming months,
as Republicans fight it out while Mr. Trump shows no sign of slowing
down.
