Trump knows the Media and how to manipulate it.
Jet fuel and bottle Trump Water
Love it!
“Trump is the living, breathing example of publicity that you just can’t buy.”
And another example of an overnight sensation decades in the making.
Trump has spent a LONG time and a LOT of money building an internationally recognized personal brand. The real brilliance isn’t the $2M spent on the campaign, it’s being able to show up for the campaign with $100M worth of publicity _already_ delivered to every voter in the country. The real brilliance was making that publicity more than pay for itself along the way (Trump Towers, The Apprentice, Art of the Deal, etc).
Trump needs to start spend some money on a “ground game”.
He is at 2 million for his campaign, while the rest are spending millions upon millions of dollars to get their words out, how stupid of them....
They have the same opportunity as Trump, they can invite the media to their rallies, speaking events, the same as Trump has done...they are wasteful with their funds and will be as wasteful with ours...this shows you how Trump can run a multi-billion dollar company and still get his work done on or before the due date and on or under budget....
I would rather have this type of person in charge of our tax payers funds rather than any of the others, wouldn't you?
Exactly, he wouldn’t treat the treasury as his private piggy bank.
You have to admit that the guy is an energizer bunny!
Goes for a lot of “campaign managers” as well.
This story actually made me laugh out loud! It must drive the GOPes nuts that they’ve been flushed of their stash by a guy that spent next to nothing!
Suck it down hard, Jeb!
Saw a fool who had been a manager or something for Romney on CNN last night and the idiot was saying that Trump has only spent 2mil that it just shows that he isn’t serious...and 2mil is nothing to him. He went on and on dumping on Trump. The guy has a lot of nerve even showing his face after Romney blowing the election.
I’ve only spent $20 on mine so far. Maybe that’s why the media has ignored me.
And helicopter rides for kids and picnics at fairs and providing security for huuuuuge free fun rallies!
How can anyone NOT love it?
Paging Steve Schmidt?
Do we have spending thru 30-Sept for HELLry and the others?
You're right. I wonder what kind of a campaign he's got on the ground in Iowa? I hope it's a big one. The Iowa Caucas game is a weird one. You can be number one in the polls but still lose if you haven't got a ground operation in every county.
I hope he's working on this.
A big chunk of the money raised goes to raise money. If you are just spending on campaigning, rather than on money raising, the dollars go a lot farther.
Time to start spending Mr Trump.
