Its § 315 of the Communications Act of 1934. The Trump ad is gross, but Randall Terry, the Constitution Party candidate has also been using the rules to run a very graphic (anti-abortion) ad titled "Kamala Horror" But to answer your question: Yes. N word, profanity...campaign ads must run as is.
I still say Kamala should run an ad with Stern endorsing her with a shit load of profanity. “She’s the best fucking candidate”. Would be fabulous. But she won’t do that.
