Republican Donald Trump released a new TV ad on Friday which stars Ivanka Trump and targets women voters, a demographic among which his rival Hillary Clinton holds a generous lead.
The spot cuts clips of Ivanka with stock footage of happy moms and their children as the eldest Trump daughter explains her father's plans regarding "the most important job any woman can have," motherhood. "My father will change outdated labor laws so that they support women and American families," Trump says. "He will provide tax credits for childcare, paid maternity leave, and dependent care savings accounts."
