This is the first of a series of ads to be produced by the DNC that will be "hyper- focused" on battleground state local communities:

Voters in hundreds of small and medium-sized towns across America are about to be targeted with digital ads, press conferences and billboards featuring neighbors and friends who say they’ve been “betrayed” by President Donald Trump.

The effort is the main feature of the Democratic National Committee’s “war room” that launched on Thursday and is focused on defeating Trump in 2020, according to officials who briefed NBC News.

Responding to criticism that Democrats were too focused on Trump’s temperament and personal attributes during Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, the party’s main organizing arm says it’s making a major expansion of its opposition research team that will be “hyper-focused” on the impact of Trump’s policies on local communities.

The Democrats’ database includes every single Trump rally in 2016, material that will be used to create digital and television ads of promises he made to local communities from Lansing, Michigan to Tallahassee, Florida.

That will be spliced with county and municipal statistics on indicators like wage levels and the number of local residents with pre-existing conditions who would be hurt by Trump’s budget cuts. For instance, if Trump visits Lordstown, Ohio, the DNC will highlight the administration’s efforts to cut $1.75 million to fund a transition center there to help laid off General Motors employees.  (our emphasis)

Looks like a plan to us!
