Donald Trump's campaign is planning its biggest ad buy to date — upward of $10 million on commercials airing over the next week or so.

The campaign is expects the ads to air as soon as Monday in nine swing states: Ohio, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Florida, where the campaign has already been on the air, along with New Hampshire, Virginia, Iowa, Colorado and Nevada. 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney lost eight of those nine states.

Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, has so far been badly outspent by his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, and groups supporting her....

He needs to spam the airwaves with testimonials by people who know him well, especially women and minorities in high-level positions within the Trump organization. That would give him three weeks for “pre-buttal” to all the crap PIAPS plans to throw at him in the first debate. By Sept. 26, he’ll already have informed and inoculated the voters.

Good. About time. I am tired of having to change tv channel every time a Hillary propagana video comes on. BTW, I hope the networks are able to know that Hillary ads result in an immediate channel switch in my household, and probably many others. If I were a program sponsor I would make sure I was not buying ad time on a network airing Hillary ads because of this.

The ads have to run before people vote early

If anyone has a link to this new ad please post it.

Searching for it in Bing and Google just gives me a bunch of Left-wing pro Hillary videos.

The information is probably out there, but the search engines are actively repressing pro Trump content. Despicable!

The Trump campaign isn’t worried about holding Romney’s base.

It’s the right time for this. It’s not enough to catch up by Election Day. Trump has to pull ahead before early voting starts and then stay ahead. That means it’s time for a sustained and all-out effort. Social media can help, but he does need traditional ads too.

I’m giving a political neophyte a bit of advice.

I’m not giving business advice.

Trump is running ads to make his supporters happy not because he thinks they are effective. It is just a perception thing but it is not for efficacy.
