Fla TV spending: $20 million for Clinton, $300k for Trump

[Tony_FLADEM]

There's good news and bad new for Hillary Clinton in the latest ad spending tracked by NBC News. The good news for her is that Donald Trump and his allies are almost invisible in paid TV ads, compared to her side. The bad news? So far in Florida at least, her overwhelming lead in campaign spending hasn't translated to a real lead in public polls.

From NBC:

Hillary Clinton and her allies are poised for a TV ad blitz of nearly $100 million dollars, compared to less than $1 million currently reserved on the airwaves by backers of Donald Trump.

According to ad-tracking data provided to NBC News by SMG Delta, Clinton's campaign and pro-Clinton group Priorities USA Action have reserved a combined $98 million through the fall so far, while pro-Trump PAC Rebuilding America Now has just about $817,000 set to air at this time....

1. He doesn't have to pay a cent

MSM covers him for free constantly...can you imagine if the campaign had to pay news stations for every minute they spend covering him and his empty podium?

2. Excepting only Fox, none of that coverage is positive, and most is very negative.

During the primary, his wall to wall coverage was entirely different, often it fostered a sense of admiration, making him something of a wunderkind, a one of a kind outsider.

Now, all the news I've seen is pounding him.

4. the Khans changed that

from now on, to get the kind of fawning coverage that was his for free in primary season, he's going to have to put up bigly

3. One campaign with strategic focus

And one chaotic campaign with no purpose or aim and without a captain to guide them down a path to a stated goal.

Which one would you entrust to build a better working government to move us forward?
