This new Clinton ad takes aim at Trump with footage of a protester getting sucker-punched at a Trump rally
Hillary Clinton's latest campaign ad borrows footage from a Donald Trump rally to illustrate just how divisive he is. In the ad, set to air in New York ahead of its April 19 primary, a white Trump supporter can be seen sucker-punching a black protester at a rally for the Republican presidential frontrunner earlier this month.
"When some say we can solve America's problems by building walls, banning people based on their religion, and turning against each other, well, this is New York," Clinton says in the first ad of her campaign to hone in on Trump. "And we know better."
