Why a GOP super PAC is bothering to attack Steve Bullock's bid for president

Roll Call

Montana Gov. Steve Bullock isn’t one of the leading Democratic contenders for the nomination, but he’s learning how to turn a Republican attack into an asset for his presidential campaign.

On May 29, the GOP-affiliated Senate Leadership Fund started a television ad campaign in the Missoula market, according to Kantar/CMAG, and the message went straight to the point.

“Steve Bullock’s running for president while Montana is paying his salary. And paying for Montana Highway Patrol to travel on his out-of-state political trips,” according to narrator as grainy, slow-motion video footage and plenty of capitalized red lettering move across the screen. “Like Bullock using a state plane to travel to campaign events 21 times, it’s not the first time Steve Bullock has taken advantage of Montana tax dollars for political gain.


“Would your boss pay for your next job search? Should Montana be paying for Steve Bullock’s?” the ad finishes.
