Kamala Harris released a new web ad featuring Donald Trump repeating Harris' framing of the race as 'the prosecutor versus the convicted felon.'

Vice President Kamala Harris released a new web ad featuring former President Donald Trump repeating Harris' framing of the 2024 presidential race as "the prosecutor versus the convicted felon," using only Trump's own words to make her point.

In May, Trump became the first former president to be convicted of felony crimes. The jury found him guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels to illegally influence the 2016 election. His sentencing was set for July 11 but has now been delayed in the wake of a Supreme Court decision granting him sweeping immunity protections.


In Harris' first event as a presidential candidate this week, she made the point that as San Francisco District Attorney and then California's Attorney General, she prosecuted predators and fraudsters like Trump. The presidential race, as she framed it, was "the prosecutor versus the convicted felon."

So when Donald Trump repeated that line verbatim at one of his rallies, Harris' team simply clipped it and created an incredibly effective and succinct ad.

In the ad, Trump can be seen ranting:

"And then the [Harris] campaign says, 'I'm the prosecutor and he is the convicted felon."

The ad then cuts to an image of Harris, who can be heard saying:

"I'm Kamala Harris and I approve this message."

You can see the ad below.

Harris has emphasized her familiarity with "Donald Trump's type," positioning herself once again as a formidable prosecutor with a successful track record before entering Washington politics.

Addressing her staff and supporters at her campaign headquarters in Delaware, she said:

"Before I was elected as vice president, before I was elected as United States senator, I was elected attorney general, as I've mentioned, to California. Before that, I was a courtroom prosecutor. In those roles, I took on perpetrators of all kinds."
"Predators who abused women, fraudsters who ripped off consumers, cheaters, who broke the rules for their own gain. So, hear me when I say I know Donald Trump's type. And in this campaign, I will proudly put my record against his."

The ad was well received, with many pointing out that it's an example of Harris' philosophy in action.



The ad's release comes just days after a 2019 Kamala Harris for President ad resurfaced in which she points out that she "prosecuted sex predators" and that Trump "is one."

The video, which refers to Harris as the "anti-Trump" and was originally produced during Harris’ bid for the 2020 Democratic nomination, highlights her accomplishments as a prosecutor—and demonstrates that Trump is exactly the type of person she would have prosecuted for his sex crimes.

Maria Cardona, a Democratic strategist and former senior adviser to Hillary Clinton and former communications director for the Democratic National Committee, told reporters that Harris' candidacy presents "a beautiful split screen" because Harris "went after bad people who hurt the people that she was representing and that's exactly what she's doing now."

GOP Senator Gets Blunt Reality Check After Comparing Trump Tariff 'Pain' To Home Renovation

Montana Republican Senator Tim Sheehy was criticized after he tried to compare the "short-term pain" of President Donald Trump's tariffs to home renovation, a claim so ridiculous that CNN's Kaitlan Collins quickly pushed back on the analogy.

Trump has repeatedly referred to April 2 as “Liberation Day,” pledging to impose tariffs—taxes on imports—to reduce U.S. reliance on foreign goods. He has framed these tariffs as “reciprocal,” aiming to match the duties other nations place on American exports.

Liberal Wisconsin Judge Calls Out Elon Musk In Victory Speech—And It's Everything

Liberal judge Susan Crawford called out billionaire Elon Musk in her victory speech after winning a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, basking in successfully beating her Republican opponent Brad Schimel and ensuring that the nonpartisan court’s narrow 4-3 liberal majority remains intact despite Musk's efforts to sway the race.

Musk fueled the high-stakes race, having poured more than $20 million into supporting Schimel, according to state campaign records. That includes $3 million to the state Republican Party—$2 million of which was donated just last week. Due to state election laws, large contributions must be funneled through political parties before reaching candidates.
