MANCHESTER — Bennet for America today launched a new television ad in New Hampshire to demonstrate why Michael Bennet is the best candidate to beat Donald Trump and move the country forward. The ad — named “Two Weeks at a Time” for Bennet’s most viral tweet — makes clear why he is the opposite of Donald Trump: As president, he’ll keep his head down and work hard so Americans can raise their families and live their lives.
Last week, the campaign announced it achieved its $700,000 New Hampshire Investment Strategy, a fundraising goal set one month ago to build the resources to compete in New Hampshire, including an expanded TV and digital buy for this new ad. The campaign’s advertising investment in New Hampshire will reach six figures this week and includes its first TV ad — “Opposite of Trump” — as well as the “Just the Truth” digital series on Bennet’s personal story, experiences in leadership and service, and motivations underlying his run for president.
“Voters are asking one question in this election: Who can beat Donald Trump?” said Bennet for America spokesperson Shannon Beckham. “To beat Trump, we need the opposite of Trump, and Michael represents that in every way. People are exhausted by the chaos and uncertainty from the Oval Office, and they are looking for a candidate who will bring steady leadership back to Washington.”
The tweet, which received more than 40,000 likes and retweets, was covered by outlets ranging from the Associated Press and Washington Post to MSNBC’s Morning Joe and The Daily Show. As the Associated Press wrote, “Bennet is tying his candidacy to perhaps the most audacious proposition of all, that voters may actually crave the opposite of the relentlessly turbulent tenure of Trump.” The Daily Show’s Trevor Noah described it as “a really interesting pitch because basically what you are saying is, ‘Vote for me because I’ll get the job done.’” MSNBC’s Willie Geist said Bennet “effectively made the most compelling case of the 2020 race.”
Last month, Bennet announced his commitment to hold 50 town halls in New Hampshire during the final 10 weeks before the First in the Nation primary. With his tally at 38 town halls since then, Bennet is tied for the most events in the state. The campaign has also announced new endorsements recently, including famed strategist James Carville, former Cory Booker supporter State Rep. Bob Backus, and two former chairs of Concord’s school board.

This is the most popular tweet that I’ve sent out as a candidate for president:
“If you elect me president, I promise you won’t have to think about me for 2 weeks at a time. I’ll do my job watching out for North Korea and ending this trade war. So you can go raise your kids and live your lives.”
We can’t afford four more years of sleepless nights because Donald Trump is still our president.
I’m Colorado Senator Michael Bennet. I’m running for president. And I approve this message.
It’s actually a good tweet.
