Washington (CNN)After repeatedly boasting that he has spent very little on his campaign so far, Donald Trump is set to begin spending $2 million a week on ads in early primary and caucus states.

Trump told reporters Tuesday that he will begin his first major paid media campaign, which he has refused to do despite large advertising buys from his Republican rivals and the super PACs supporting them, next month. Trump, who has no authorized outside group independently backing him, appears to be finally paying heed to polls that show the GOP race tightening in Iowa.

That’s why he’s dipping into his pocket, which he said he would never need to do.


Wrong!! He never said that. He hasn’t HAD to spend any $$ unlike the other candidates. He’s repeatedly said that he’s prepared to spend $$/millions, if he so choses.

Let’s see, you’re not for the top two Iowa GOP contenders....Trump or CRuz.....so, who are you supporting? Jeb? Rubio? LOLOL.

You’ve certainly outed yourself as nothing but a nonsense posting, disruptive troll.

He can spend money for a month and if he wins 2 of 3 then he probably won’t have to spend any until August. He will be in the news every day.


correct

I’m actually not saying the wave is going to crash, in the campaign season. Maybe not at all. I’m saying that his big governmemt liberal reflexes are going to bite us all on the ass at some point....and that point may be the Iowa debate coming up, it may be after he has the nomination and screws up bigtime giving Hillary the Oval..or it may come after he is President Trump.

But he is who he is, period, and it’s got nothing to do with limited government liberty and so on.

As opposed to a shrieking harpie?

Bottom line: Trump said he didn't need to spend money. Now he does. The free advertising the MSM gave him apparently isn't enough.

I don't support any candidate yet because I don't have to. I support Constitutionally limited government, which Trump has not only TOTALLY failed to articulate but has shown its antithesis. He's every bit the narcissistic autocratic despot Obama is, while showing ample evidence of a situationally plastic policy preferences. He won't get my support, ever.

Iowa.

What has happened to you?

I'm not so desperate as to be a total fool for a narcissistic despot with no concept for constitutionally limited government.

I have not yet seen any signs that D. Trump is losing. Instead,just the reverse if one is to believe the polls.

One has to give him a lot of credit for bringing up the illegal alien problem and rejecting political correctness. Deportation of illegal aliens would greatly reduce many problems, including heroin addiction, notably to black tar heroin.

One odd thing to which I have found no answer is that the black tar heroin dealers, all illegal aliens from Mexico, are ordered to sell only to whites..

Well, I guess you’re going with Cruz, then.

Trump and Cruz are the only viable candidates left.

This is a desperation move while Jebbie is curtailing his adds, is a path to victory per four yapping females on FOX.

Ironically, if Trump wins, it will be the first election in modern times that has NOT been bought.

What should concern you Dupes for Donald...

Is that really necessary? Why deride your fellow freepers who support Trump, why not be civil?

Why do you find it important to be a rude a$$hole?

Clean up you act, you'll find folks more receptive to your arguments.

Be accepting of friendly advice.

Methinks, but I could be wrong, that FREE advertising (sponsored by the media and his opponents), is a whole lot better that spending money.

Just sayin'.
