Harris-Walz hit with blistering ad on China record ahead of presidential debate: 'Time to fight back'

FIRST ON FOX: An anti-CCP group is launching a 6-figure ad in key battleground states during Tuesday’s debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris that accuses her of "doing damage" to the country through her position on China.

"The Protecting America Initiative, a nonprofit organization focused on safeguarding the nation from Communist China’s growing influence in the states, today released a six-figure TV ad that will air during the Trump-Harris Presidential Debate on Tuesday," the Protecting America Initiative said in a press release this week leading up to the first debate between Trump and Harris.

In the 30-second ad, which will run in the battleground states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin during Tuesday’s debate, the group takes direct aim at the Harris-Walz record on China.

And now that she's running for president, she’s chosen a running mate under federal investigation for ‘close ties’ to the CCP," the ad continued. "Harris has done enough damage. It’s time to fight back. To safeguard our manufacturing, our food supply, and our border…It's time to stand up to China and Protect America."
