Why aren't more of the Democratic candidates running Trump attack ads?

I know this is a "primary" thread. But I think there is no way for any of the Democratic candidates to loose in attacking 45.

45 is a criminal. Over and over and over and over and over again.

I want to see an ad with him bragging about "grabbing p*ssy," I want to see an ad about his fraud with his "university," I want to see an ad about how he defrauded his own "charity," I want to see an add with all the gumballs. I want to see an ad where he's been in contempt of court.

If the moderate vote is at stake, why not push one issue that moderates agree on? No one likes a criminal. HE'S A CRIMINAL!!!

And they can add to the spot that Congressional GOP has been enabling him.

If the Democrats want to show unity, they should unite in bombarding that monster.

I know that w/ my undecided vote... the one that takes 45 down gets my vote.

45 plays dirty.

Which one is ready to take him on?

At this time, they and we all know all of them can't stand 45, and all want him gone. Presumably everyone who is paying attention wants Trump gone (except for the Goppers who are crossing over in open primary states to disrupt things). So, with limited funds, they are differentiating themselves. Plus, for all his weaknesses as a candidate, Bloomberg is saturating the country with anti-Trump messaging.

Once the GE is on, we'll see plenty of it

But I’m sure he thinks the sandblasted face and bubblegum eyes make him attractive.
