In a minute-long digital ad released late Thursday that relies heavily on imagery of China and people of Asian descent, the Trump campaign signaled the lines of attack it will use in its attempts to rally the president's base and define Mr. Biden. The ad reprises accusations Mr. Trump has made that the former vice president's family profited from his relationships with Chinese officials and presents selectively edited scenes and statements attempting to portray him as doddering and weak.
While you're here, how about this:
RNC launches digital ads praising Trump on coronavirus - POLITICO
The $1 million-plus digital blitz, which will run across more than a dozen battleground states, is unusual: The committee rarely spends so heavily on advertising so early in an election year. But over the last several weeks, an array of liberal groups has spent millions of dollars on commercials battering Trump. On Thursday, Pacronym, a liberal super PAC, began running a web video hammering the president for initially downplaying the virus.

The RNC's spots, by contrast, praise the president for his leadership. One spot , for example, spotlights clips of two Democratic governors, Gavin Newsom of California and Andrew Cuomo of New York, crediting Trump for his response.
Trump's most devastating weapon will be Bernie Bros: insiders
"Bernie Sanders supporters have been laying the groundwork for many of the lines of attack that the Trump campaign will be using against Joe Biden in the general,” a senior Trump campaign insider told The Post. “From his serial dishonesty, to his obvious issues, to his attempts to cut Social Security. We are going to have a field day."
During the 2020 primaries, nobody’s knives for Biden were sharper than Sanders’ rabid supporters online and in far-left media.
How Coronavirus Will Blow Up the 2020 Campaign - POLITICO
No conventions. No rallies. No get-out-the-vote. Insiders are starting to rethink how politics is even going to work.

The chaos around Wisconsin's primary last week has raised the level of concern about November's Election Day to Defcon-1 status. Will Republican legislators in key states block efforts to expand mail-in voting, and force people to stand in line together? Will we be clear enough of the virus for polling places to operate at all? Will Democrats sue and send the whole thing to the courts?
This may worth something:
Co-op scraps Easter ad in favour of scheme to feed the hungry
Co-op has pulled its Easter ad campaign and donated airtime worth £2.5m to fight hunger amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

When Media Advertising Boycotts Backfire | RealClearPolitics
Sleeping Giants is far from a household name, but the small organization has had an outsize impact in the Trump era. After being dismayed by the result of the 2016 election, Sleeping Giants was founded by two advertising industry veterans, Matt Rivitz and Nandini Jammi, to organize boycotts of conservative news organizations via social media campaigns.
Though the group has a small social media following – 254,000 Twitter followers, which isn’t a lot in relative terms – it has succeeded in getting at least 20 major advertisers to abandon Tucker Carlson’s program on Fox News, and by some estimates it’s responsible for reducing the ad revenue at Breitbart.com by 90%. (In the interest of disclosure, my wife is a contributor to Fox News.)
