BOOM: Clinton outspending Trump $117 million to $0 in ads

[Cali_Democrat]

<...>

The presumptive GOP nominee is being massively outspent on television airwaves: Between Tuesday and Election Day, Trump has reserved zero dollars in television advertising, compared to $117 million from Hillary Clinton and her allies, according to data from the ad tracking firm Kantar Media/CMAG.

Compared to Team Clinton's spending, the buys from pro-Trump groups are a drop in the bucket.

Among the pro-Clinton spots is one that hammers Trump as "too dangerous for America."

That messaging, if it sticks, could pose yet another hurdle for Trump, whose campaign is in turmoil amid criticism that it has a barely functioning infrastructure. Trump, who on Monday fired his campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, also hasn't built other common elements of a national campaign, such as a fundraising base or an extensive network of field staff.

1. Donald Trump, the broke-ass, cheap-ass, 'billionaire' nt

[mcar]

2. She is defining him

A really good strategy. Especially since the media has soured on him, some what.

6. This is something that Republicans are typically better at ... "framing" ...

it's nice to see them being beaten at their own game. Then again, Secretary Clinton has been a victim of Republican framing for decades and it has happened so many times that she knows how to play it.

11. She does

President Obama was pretty masterful at it v Romney too.

3. I honestly think that in his egomaniacle way, he thinks he knows how to do this campaign stuff.

He is attempting to run the GE like his Primary and rely on free media attention and bullying and name calling to fire up his base. His base isn't enough to win the GE and in fact, I predict his methods will cause him to lose some of his base.

4. She will devastate him right now.

She is going to define Trump to the country right now. And he will be powerless to do anything about it. He is screwed.

5. Trump had a 5 week head start in the GE and completely blew it.

Now he's about to get schlonged.

7. That's because his campaign has been in such disarray

They haven't been planning adequately for the GD.

Now once she's elected we need to do something so that level of spending is no longer necessary or permitted. My preference is for publically funded elections.

8. That gif is everything!

9. She is hitting the campaign trail hard and will not let up.
