During a rally on Friday, former President Donald Trump played a new ad which takes aim at Vice President Kamala Harris by using her own past remarks against her.
Harris, the Democrats’ effective 2024 presidential nominee, has an extremely left-wing history in politics, and voiced similarly radical positions during her failed 2020 presidential run. Video clips of those staked out positions by Harris were compiled by Trump’s team and featured in the new ad.
The ad opens up with the text, “Here’s what Kamala Harris would do as president” as audio plays of Harris bragging about being “radical.”
It then shows the VP voicing support for the controversial Green New Deal, issuing a total ban on fracking, supporting gun confiscation, eliminating private health insurance, providing taxpayer-funded health care for illegal immigrants, and supporting the radical “defund the police” movement, among other far-Left issues.
The ad closes with the text, “Kamala Harris: Failed. Weak. Dangerously liberal.”

As highlighted in the ad, Harris said in 2019 that there’s “no question” she’s “in favor of banning fracking.”
“And starting with what we can do on Day 1 around public lands,” she said. “This is something I’ve taken on in California. I have a history on this issue.”
She further told CNN’s Jake Tapper that she supports a single-payer, Medicare for All bill that would eliminate private health insurance. “Let’s eliminate all of that. Let’s move on,” she told the host.

Harris has also praised Australia’s strict gun ban and said she would implement gun confiscation for up to 10 million guns in the U.S. through a mandatory gun buy-back program.
Trump played the ad for his supporters on Friday during a rally in Bozeman, Montana. “Don’t take my word for it, listen: Kamala Harris’ agenda straight fro her own mouth,” the Republican nominee teed up the video:
