"China Takes Center Stage in U.S. Presidential Campaign Ads"

As concerns about China's threat grow among Americans, campaign ads targeting China are on the rise. Republican presidential candidates Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley allies are trading allegations, with super PACs running ads attacking each other's records on China. So far, $18 million has been spent on TV ads mentioning China in the presidential race, while nearly $26 million has been spent on digital ads. Republicans have dominated TV ad spending, but Democrats and groups supporting President Biden are more active online. China has also become a topic of contention in the Montana Senate race.
