Title: Strapped for cash, Trump yanks TV ads in key states as Biden spending surges
Post by: Barricade on October 12, 2020, 12:30:16 PM
QuotePresident Trump stopped all of his television and radio advertising in three states and substantially reduced it in four others in recent weeks after his lackluster fundraising left him unable to match a surge in spending by his Democratic challenger, Joe Biden.

Trump's retreat from Ohio, Iowa and New Hampshire reflects his struggle to change the dynamics of a race that polls suggest he is on track to lose. In the six weeks since his party's national convention, Trump's campaign has yanked more than $17 million in ads he'd previously booked in those states.

Two of them, Ohio and Iowa, are must-wins for the Republican president. Polls show him running almost dead even with the former vice president in both. Trump's withdrawal of advertising in those states — despite the risk — is a sign of his campaign's poor financial condition.

"It seems the Trump campaign has reached the point where they have to do some triage," said Travis Ridout, co-director of the Wesleyan Media Project, which tracks political ads. "They don't seem to have enough money to run ads everywhere."

Not much excitement for Trump judging by this. Why doesn't Trump just pony up the shortfall?

This election is about one thing, Donald Trump. Some hate him and some love him as evidenced by the crowds he draws. As for Biden/Harris, they draw nobody to a rally because their people are voting against Donald Trump, not for them. This explains the complete lack of enthusiasm for the Demonazis ticket.

If crowd size won elections, it'd be Bernie v Trump right now.

The fact remains that the Trump campaign has pulled millions of dollars in scheduled ads from battleground states. That's either a bad strategy or they're broke or something. It certainly isn't normal.

Just because he doesn't need to run ads because he has it locked up, in no way equates to being broke.

The fact remains that the DNC is gonna do to you and me, what the did to Comrade Bernout.  They are really sleezy and dishonest.
You progs aren't as bright as you think you are.  That is why I call you Dims.
His campaign has a HUGE ground game. Bigger even than Hitlery's.  So, why put ads on TV, when the money is better spent elsewhere? 
Believe me, he ain't broke.  He gets nearly all the RNC money.  He even gets money from Democrat voters.  Your ilk has managed to run off all the Democrat Police and Military.  #WalkAway is another Dem creation, and when Trump gets 30% of the Black Vote, maybe then they will see how far removed they are from American Realities.
Sheesh!

Great post Tiny but you forgot to mention the Jewish vote! After what Trump has done in the middle east. what Cuomo is doing to the Jews in New York , Members of Trumps family in the Jewish community and Biden just saying he would reinstate PLO funding and offices. I think that could effect another group they have always taken for granted! :thumbsup:
