Nathan Sage for U.S. Senate US Inactive

SAGE FOR SENATE

ad creative

Ad copy

First it was the tariffs, now it’s a $40 billion bailout to Argentina. At a time when Big Ag is already squeezing small farmers out of business, @hinsonforiowa and this administration’s trade policies are A SLAP IN THE FACE of the working class Iowans who feed this country. We should be creating fair markets for our farmers, not bailing out our competitors and making billionaires richer.

Standout elementAerial drone shot of Iowa crop rows as the dark backdrop behind bold gold-and-white candidate logo
TacticThe ad uses economic populist anger — tariffs and a $40B Argentina bailout framed as betrayal of small Iowa farmers — to contrast Sage as the champion of the working class against a captured incumbent and Big Ag interests.
