Trump campaign ad attacks Schumer, Pelosi — the day after POTUS cut a deal with them

The day after President Donald Trump struck a debt ceiling deal with congressional Democratic leadership, the president released an ad depicting Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) as among those who are “trying to stop” his agenda.

The 30-second ad, titled “Finish the Job,” was paid for by the Republican National Committee and authorized by Trump. It said the president’s time in office has lead to “over 1 million new jobs” and companies “investing billions in America.” It stated that borders are “more secure” and the economy is “winning again.”

As the president’s ad hits “career politicians and the media who are trying to stop him,” Pelosi and Schumer’s images flash across the screen.

A statement from Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. said the ad will begin to air on cable TV news networks on Thursday.

On Wednesday, Trump reached a deal with Schumer and Pelosi to raise the debt ceiling and fund the government for three months, Politico reported. Trump reached the deal over the objections of his own Treasury Secretary, Steven Mnuchin.

“We essentially came to a deal, and I think the deal will be very good,” Trump told reporters, according to Politico.

Politico’s report described Democrats as “gleeful” about the deal.
