Unfortunately, the target audience also wear shirts which say "I'd rather be Russian than democrat"

They may take it as an attack against themselves.

The target audience are independents and the few sane (but denialist) Republicans left. I think the ad's goal is to drive them away from the republican party.

It's also a social media only ad.
