A rising Michigan Democrat cut an ad tying President Trump to the affordability issues illustrated by NFL RedZone bringing ads to its once commercial-free football programming.

Michigan Democratic Senate hopeful Mallory McMorrow raged against “corporate greed” that has led to RedZone to run ads despite it being a paid service.

“Football is back, and seven hours of commercial-free football is not,” she lamented in her new spot. “This is just the latest example of corporate greed ruining the things we love, because it’s not just commercials on TV, it’s also your grocery store.

“Everything’s getting more expensive, all the while Donald Trump is telling us that prices are down at tremendous numbers, while he’s selling us out to the same corporations, who are jacking up prices on the things that we love.”

She also blamed tariffs as a key factor in the forces that are “making everything more expensive” for everyday Americans.

The NFL RedZone will include ads this season after a new deal with ESPN, changing its opener from “seven hours of commercial-free football” to “seven hours of RedZone football” to match the change.

The inclusion of ads in RedZone sparked an uproar from fans and even threats of boycotts.

Another Democratic Senate hopeful, Oyster farmer and combat veteran Graham Platner, previously railed against the change.

“Now this is some corporate bulls–t,” he wrote on X last week.

Platner is hoping to unseat Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), who is widely seen as the most vulnerable Republican heading into the 2026 midterm election cycle. He has also tried to frame himself as a populist champion against the “oligarchy.”

McMorrow, a Michigan state Senator, has been fighting for the Democratic nod to succeed retiring Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.), who has passed on a reelection bid.

Trump has endorsed Republican Mike Rogers for that seat. Rogers was defeated in the 2024 election cycle by Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.)

While Trump won the Wolverine State last November, Michigan is the only so-called “Blue Wall” state where Republicans are lacking a senator, as they have one senator in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
