    by Robert Farley Jul 12, 2019 4 minutes

    A TV ad from Democratic presidential candidate Kirsten Gillibrand accuses President Donald Trump of breaking his promise to protect and create manufacturing jobs. Despite some plant closures, there has been a net increase of nearly 500,000 manufacturing jobs on Trump’s watch.

    Billed by her campaign as the first anti-Trump TV ad of the 2020 cycle, the ad comes in support of what Sen.
