A serious question for the Harris campaign: Where are the Jan. 6 ads? [View all]

Up to this point it appears that ads depicting the violence this nation witnessed on Jan. 6 have been conspicuously absent from the Harris campaign. Given the vast amounts of money available to our campaign it would seem to be worthwhile to remind Americans of the horrific violence Trump is responsible for stirring up on that day, and particularly emphasizing his complete indifference to it.

Just a brief reminder:




There are literally thousands of videos of these thugs performing unspeakable acts of violence and property destruction, beating up police officers, sacking our most sacred space, all at the behest of Donald Trump. While he sat and watched Fox News, declining to stop the violence.

So where are the political ads? Why is there not wall-to-wall saturation of ads about this? Is there a downside to revisiting it for the campaign, that I’m just missing?
