The ads urge the community to “STAND WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP" as his critics speak out against his history of xenophobic rhetoric.
Days after the El Paso, Texas, shooting in which 22 people were killed and dozens injured by a gunman who may have been acting out a white supremacist manifesto, President Donald Trump’s reelection campaign launched a new set of Facebook ads directed at the Latino community.
The ads, some of which are images and others of which are videos, show Trump supporters holding campaign signs, cheering him on at rallies and sporting his signature red “Make America Great Again” caps. Trump’s bigoted rhetoric and history of racist remarks has received renewed scrutiny in light of the massacre, after which it was reported that his campaign ran about 2,200 Facebook ads fear-mongering over an “invasion” at the southern border.
