The first ad, which will go live at midnight Monday marks debate day with art of exploding fireworks and the marquee "Donald J. Trump vs Crooked Hillary." According to a source familiar with the buy, it will be live for most of Monday before being replaced during the debate with a surprise filter without a Clinton attack.

Trump has extensively used Snapchat geofilters for his campaign rallies, but the debate ad is the first nationwide filter launched by a political campaign. A copy of the filter is below
