Vandalizing Marquees A marquee is a low-tech board that allows customizable letters. For example, here is a marquee:
SALE ON SNEAKERS

However, someone might come along and vandalize it by removing letters to send a different message:
S     N    AKE

Given two non-empty string inputs, an original message and a new message, determine whether the new message can be created by removing characters from the original message. Spaces left by removal can be compressed, as above, or left in, as in the becoming t e by removing the h. Both messages will only contain letters and spaces, case is up to you.

{|∧Ṣ}ᵐ⊇

Try it online!
I should not be surprised to learn that it's considerably faster if I put the ⊇ at the end. Takes the original marquee through the input and the target through the output.
{   }ᵐ     The input variable, with each element
 |         possibly
  ∧Ṣ       replaced by a space,
      ⊇    has the output variable as a subsequence.

Can also go the other way around, for another two bytes: {|Ṣ∧l₁}ᵐ⊆
