Why not? I’ve always thought “The Walking Dead” was thinly veiled social commentary. Substitute Third World immigrants for the zombies ......

Trump could have just skimmed FR to get that bit of data.

I’m not sure exactly why, but of course advertising during the Walking Dead is a racist dog whistle. /s

His family is tapped in to the pulse of the current “zeitgeist.”

No wonder he relies on them, they know what they’re doing.

Well, not exactly. They hired a analytics company.

The entire project was run like an acquisition. B School students will be studying this for decades. Probably the next 100 years.

Walking Dead ping!

Did you notice a lot of Trump commercials while watching The Walking Dead? This article might explain why.

Thanks for the ping, Whenifhow!

Walking Dead success was a symptom of the downturn in the economy and outlook by white America.

Zombies = the foreigners and government brain dead out to kill and suck the life from the good guys.

Makes sense that’s a Trump target voter base.

Awesome! Also remember the previous episode was about Gun Confiscation - very 2nd Amendment. Not surprising they would show Trump ads. Great news to hear.

Wrong. These kinds of ridiculous attacks on Trump’s voters have to stop. I have never watched even one episode of the walking dead. The title alone is enough to discourage a thinking person from watching it. The only “walking” dead are liberals who are brain dead.

They certainly know what they are doing.
