A group supporting businesswoman Carly Fiorina’s White House bid is using the controversy over GOP rival Donald Trump’s remark about her face to promote her presidential campaign.

{mosads}The CARLY for America super-PAC released a 60-second video Monday highlighting a speech from the former executive over the weekend responding to Trump’s remark.

“Ladies … look at this face, and look at all of your faces,” Fiorina is heard saying in the clip, which includes video portraits of a series of women after text that reads, “A Message From Carly.”

“The face of leadership, the face of leadership in our party, the party of women’s suffrage,” Fiorina continues, before discussing herself. “This is the face of a 61-year-old woman. I am proud of every year and every wrinkle.”

Fiorina made the comments during a speech at the National Federation of Republican Women’s annual conference in Phoenix on Friday night.

Trump was quoted in a Rolling Stone story out last week mocking Fiorina’s “face.” He later said he was talking about her “persona.”

“Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that?” the real estate tycoon was quoted as saying in Rolling Stone, drawing the ire of other presidential candidates including Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton.

Trump and Fiorina are expected to face off on Wednesday night during the second GOP debate, which will feature Fiorina on the main stage after she dominated the undercard debate last month.
