A pro-Trump super PAC just released an advertisement addressing President Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the race, blasting presumptive nominee and current Vice President Kamala Harris for her covering up “Joe’s obvious mental decline.”
The advertisement from Make America Great Again Inc. blasted Harris for her role in the Biden administration, criticizing the vice president for the ongoing crisis on the southern border and inflation, two issues that polls have found are top-of-mind for voters.
“Kamala was in on it. She covered up Joe’s obvious mental decline,” the advertisement says before cutting to a clip of Kamala Harris claiming that “our president is in good shape and good health,” also calling him “tireless” and “vibrant.”
“But Kamala knew Joe couldn’t do the job, so she did it. Look what she got done,” the advertisement continues before pointing to “a border invasion, runaway inflation,” and “the American dream: dead.”
“They created this mess. They know Kamala owns this failed record,” the ad from the pro-Trump super PAC goes on to say about Harris, whom Biden has endorsed for the presidency.
The advertisement came just moments after Biden announced in a statement posted to X that he would be backing out of the presidential race, saying, “I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.”

Biden then released a separate post in which he endorsed Harris to be the Democratic Party’s nominee.
“My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made,” Biden’s post reads. “Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year.”
Meanwhile, former president Barack Obama released a statement of his own in which he celebrated Biden’s presidency while notably refraining from endorsing Harris to be the party’s nominee.
The party’s nominee is expected to be decided at the Democratic National Convention, which begins on August 19th, though the party may opt for a virtual nomination process that would likely finish by August 7th, a measure that may be taken in order to ensure the Democratic nominee appears on every state’s ballot.
