The ad, released on Friday, contrasts Trump&#8217;s sparsely attended events with the packed crowds that Vice President Kamala Harris is drawing as she kicks off her presidential campaign. These ads will be aired exclusively on Fox News in Bedminster, New Jersey, and Mar-a-Lago\u2014locations where Trump frequently spends time. In the voiceover, Conway remarks, &#8220;Enjoy the rallies while they last, Donald,&#8221; as an image of a prison door slams shut over Trump&#8217;s face, suggesting that he won&#8217;t have such opportunities in the future.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of these advertisements is to provoke Trump and disrupt his usual narrative since he often boasts about having larger crowds than others. In response to questions about Harris&#8217;s rally sizes, Trump claimed on Thursday that no one has attracted crowds like he has throughout history and even compared his attendance to Martin Luther King Jr.&#8217;s famous speech crowd. He has also alleged that Harris pays people to inflate her crowd numbers.<\/p>\n<p>Trump expressed frustration over media coverage of rally sizes in a Truth Social post: &#8220;When I have a Rally and 100,000 people show up, the Fake News doesn\u2019t talk about it; THEY REFUSE TO MENTION CROWD SIZE!
