Hillary Clinton released a new campaign ad on Monday framing her as the only candidate “tough enough to stop Trump.”
The 30-second TV spot highlights Donald Trump’s past remarks about punishing women for having abortions if the procedure was outlawed, banning Muslim immigrants from the United States and labeling Mexican immigrants “rapists.”
“Donald Trump says we can solve America’s problems by turning against each other,” Clinton says in the ad. “It’s wrong and it goes against everything New York and America stand for.”
The ad, which is expected to air this week in New York City ahead of the Democratic primary on April 19, makes no mention of Clinton’s opponent Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). The size of the buy was not made public, according to CNN.
Clinton is currently leading Sanders in what each claims as their home state by 54 percent to 39.3 percent, according to TPM’s Polltracker Average.
In the Republican field, Trump is out way ahead of his opponents, earning 54 percent of the vote compared to 21.3 percent for Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).
