On Wednesday, President Trump posted a video ad on Twitter featuring a Mexican immigrant named Luis Bracamontes, who killed two police officers in 2014. The video has text saying Democrats let him into the country and let him stay. Trump’s tweet said, “Vote Republican now!” The ad has been viewed millions of times.
Will there be backfire to Trump’s ad linking a Mexican immigrant to Democrats?
