“The Real State of the Union? A nation divided by an angry, out of control president. A White House besotted by lies, chaos, and corruption,” a narrator says in the ad.

“It doesn’t have to be this way. Next year we can have a leader who will bring people together,” the ad continues. “Mike Bloomberg will get it done.”

The ad will air on MSNBC, Fox, CNN and YouTube platforms just hours before Trump delivers his annual State of the Union address on Capitol Hill.

Bloomberg, who entered the race in November, is working to make up for lost time and spent roughly $132 million on TV advertisements in addition to $8.19 million on digital ads in the fourth quarter.
