Is he saving it up to buy an entire weeks worth of ads on a network?

It really seems like this is a joke

He hasn't needed them. The one thing he can do well is manipulate the media and get free press.

He's buying a shit ton of Internet ads though, shows up on my Pandora daily.

Watching TV in in Northeast PA the Pro-Trump SuperPAC ads outnumber hers by a 3 to 1 margin

In many ways it's really unfortunate that Hillary is the Democratic candidate this year because my assumption is that Trump will massively flame out and bring everyone down with him (Senate control up for grabs, GOP in Congress will also lose seats though their control there is pretty ironclad at this point). A better Dem candidate + Senate control + weakly controlled GOP Conress + GOP in total disarray could have resulted in some really positive policies being put into action. Hillary will likely be steady and play it safe even if/when she does not need to.

I'm in Mexico right now but we're getting a television feed from Jacksonville, Florida. I see a Hillary ad at least once every break, I've seen zero Trump ads.

He gets all of his press by calling for the assassination of his opponent.

Donald Trump is literally the founder of NAMBLA

An expert pundit on Fox News said that Trump is exactly right.

I don't think Bernie handles the amount of shit that would be thrown his way.

Whereas Hillary Clinton has actually assassinated people (so it's rumored) and the NRA is quite upset that Clinton is so against owning guns....

She gets away with all these things because people think it is an accusation from the other side, or that she has all this political experience she couldn't have done something so awful...ask the victims in the wake of Bill Clinton's numerous affairs, starting in Arkansas. Ask the families of the Bengazi victims, whom she outright lied to...follow the money of the Clinton foundation, it is practically quid pro quo giving favors for donations.

Axver · 08-12-2016, 11:01 PM

So Trump says the only way he can lose Pennsylvania is if Clinton cheats.

He's on track to make Hope Solo look like the most gracious loser ever.

Or, look at everything that has been thrown at the Clintons since the 90s when "Clinton Attack" became the Republican's MO and see how virtually nothing has stuck, because very little of it has any merit. And, if there were anything of substance, I guarantee it would have been found, since they have been investigated to death for a couple of decades now. No one is that teflon. If there were anything, it would have been found. But either way.

By virtue of this part, I almost feel like I'm giving weight, which there is none, to your Clinton slams...but even if they were true, would you rather give the nuclear codes to someone like her, or some thin skinned narcissist with no impulse control, as proven by the way he's run his campaign, like Trump? There is only one sane answer to this question.

You believe the rumors, you believe Obama founded ISIS, you believe Trump wants your success, you believe in reality TV, you believe the devil cares that I compared him to Cruz...

I have a bridge I'd like to sell. In fact Trump built it. I'll give you a great deal.

I'm guessing you believe that you've talked to these people as well? Do you also believe you have the smoking gun?

You say you're a Democrat, you say you voted for Sanders, yet like a mindless drone you reiterate the far right's rhetoric "she needs the lowly that depend on government" blah blah blah. You're a liar. Why are you even trying?!

I poorly made this point before, but why engage Donald Trump's crap? It's like engaging Debra's post. It's not worth contradicting.

True. I know I haven't contributed a ton to these threads, but I've been reading for months now, and my radar has been pinged. It's either an alter with a VPN, or a sudden Trump shill.

Ow, that hurts! Why do we need a smoking gun? We have a trail of miscreant activity. "smoking gun" comes from the Liberal media.

It's well known, not just by the far right, that Democrats depend on minority and poor people's votes, that's history.

I stand by all of my personal assertions.

Bill Clinton was impeached, btw, after getting a blow job in his White House office, and lying about it, and Hillary stood by her man.
