UNITED STATES – An advertisement “ disgusting “. A spot in favor of Kamala Harris scandalized Donald Trump and his supporters a few days before the vote for the American presidential election. Produced by Vote Common Good, an association of progressive religions, with the voice of Julia Roberts, the campaign shows two women voting for Kamala Harris.

But as you can see in the video at the top of the articlethe video suggests that the voters hid their choice from their husbands, who were certainly favorable to Donald Trump. “In the only place in America where women still have the right to choose, you can vote however you want,” indicates Julia Roberts in the comment

An implicit reference to abortion which is no longer protected at the federal level since the removal in 2022 of the ruling “ Roe v. Wade » by the American Supreme Court, several judges of which were appointed by the Republican candidate.

The message did not please Donald Trump who made it known on the conservative channel Fox News on November 2. “II am very disappointed in Julia Roberts. She's going to think about it again and she's going to bite her fingershe repeated. Can you imagine a woman who doesn't tell her husband who she's going to vote for? Have you ever heard such a thing? Even if you had a horrible, if you had a bad relationship with him, you're going to tell your husband. »

“The equivalent of an extramarital relationship”

Other conservatives were also offended by this advertising campaign. Jesse Watters, a political columnist for Fox News, considered that if his wife engaged in such behavior, it would be the equivalent of ” of an extramarital relationship ».

Pro-Trump influencer Charlie Kirk also expressed indignation at length about the ad, calling it “ disgusting » : « She comes with her nice husband who probably works like crazy to make sure she can have a good life and provide for the family, and then she lies to him and says, “Oh, yeah, I'm going to vote for Trump “and then she votes for Kamala Harris”, he interpreted.

While the former Speaker of the American House of Representatives Newt Gingrich judged that she is a “ further example of the depth of corruption » from the party of Kamala Harris. “ What kind of totally amoral, corrupt and sick system have the Democrats developed? » he fumed.

Polls show a clear divide in the electorate, particularly among young people. Women mostly support Kamala Harris while men tend to lean towards Donald Trump. A reality that could explain why the Republican candidate is so irritated by the advertising. But for his opponents, the reason is even simpler. It's because the ad is right on target, with proof to back it up: a photo of Trump dating from 2016 where we see him glance at his partner Melania while voting.
