Clinton spent multiple times what President-Elect Trump spent. Any figures out there? How about Jeb?

Meh.

When you get free coverage from the media, you lower your costs. Shrewd business is the order of the day.

Trump got more bang for the buck than anyone in recent history - don’t have exact figures but it was a fraction of what Hillary’s supporters threw down the toilet (terlet for any New Yawkahs out theah).

And of course Trump kicked in a fair amount of his own money. Hillary did not. She kicked in money from foreign governments.

When he asked how much it would cost to go through the primaries successfully, he was told “$70-80MM”. He responded, “A yacht.”

Trump spent $372 mil and Hillary spent $877 mil.

I suspect Trump spent most of his money on traveling and meeting with the citizens.

Hillary spent almost all of it on negative TV and Radio ads.

Trump was willing to call into cable news shows on a regular basis, both during the primaries and the general election. That is something that no other candidate has ever done.

It was indeed very shrewd business.

You got that right.

The media covered him like the cops let hot blondes get out of tickets. The media was showing their believing, MSM nipple sucking audience “look what this buffoon did today,” so these elites could have their outrage and laughs. You saw them BEGGING him to run because Serious Hillary with So Much Experience would crush him. Trump used his “buffoon” image to save him money. I used to use my long blonde hair and figure to smile dumbly at the male officer and get that “warning” instead of a ticket.

Smart business.

Trump was running for president of The United States, not Triskelion.

The constant MSM hating on Trump gave him all the free publicity he needed, and more. Why buy it when it’s free?
