The Trump campaign is bizarrely pouring over $400,000 on ads to air locally on Fox News, MSNBC, and CNN in the Washington, D.C. area, despite the fact that President Donald Trump, has little chance of winning Virginia nor Maryland in November.
Heâs been bunkers forever. As a native Manhattanite Iâm still incredulous that this fixture of Page Six holds the nuclear codes. PS The MSNBC ad buy is not just in DC. Itâs airing locally, as well.
Fine, spend as much money as you need to to soothe your ManBaby. Keep draining those coffersâŚDC and the surrounding areas will never vote for the BunkerBitch now (not that they ever were going to) but burn that campaign cash.
Well, thatâs a waste of their money so, good. If his poll numbers continue to sink after spending all of this money, heâll really start to melt down.
Buffalo protester shoved by Police could be an ANTIFA provocateur. 75 year old Martin Gugino was pushed away after appearing to scan police communications in order to black out the equipment. @OANN I watched, he fell harder than was pushed. Was aiming scanner. Could be a set up?
âCampaign communications director Tim Murtaugh told the Daily Beast that âwe want members of Congress and our DC-based surrogates to see the ads so they know our strong arguments for President Trump and against Joe Biden.ââ
âBecause we canât just email them an electronic file with the ads for basically no cost. Weâd much rather make a $400,000 ad buy. As you know, we are as frugal with the campaign money as the president is with the taxpayersâ money.â
As a longtime resident of Northern Virginia, this is worse than useless. These ads appearing in commercial breaks will simply add annoyance to deep-seated hostility.
And all to calm Der Fuehrerâs volcanic temper. Kind of like the abortive offensive by Steiner to save Berlin, which was already doomed.
Addendum: I wonder if theyâre doing it so that Trump, who watches TV for 10 hours a day when heâs not golfing, will see it from the White House residence on the local Fox News affiliate?
This guy makes Mad Ludwig look like Emmanuel Kant.
The rallies that Trump plans to re-start will negate any ad buys Team Trump makes.
Then there is the problem associated with a guaranteed COVID uptick and risk in any city and state the rallies occur.
Not to mention the logistical and financial burdens the rallies will engender.
In addition, whether groupies or home-grown fanatics, rally-goers will be living COVID vectors for localities all over the country.
Finally, staging these rallies (which are akin to putting a torch to every falsehood preached by Team Trump during the inaptly-named Trump COVID Task Force Pressers) gives an exclamation point to a scream that Trump does not give a Damn about the American People, Trumpists or not.
