is Mr. Trump running for President, or is he throwing the election like the last 2 liberal Republicans did?

On exactly what do you base your analysis?

41 states allow early voting
some as much as 45 days before election day

several more like 2 or 3 weeks, but some as much as 45 days early

just saying....maybe its okay he’s just getting started but now he has to really turn the heat on, including tons of advertising to overcome Hilliary’s large Deceased and Illegal Aliens voting blocks......plus her Legions that man the voting stations AND the reported Soros major investment in the largest voting machine company

[faithhopecharity]

no advertising, no signage, no visible ground mobilization except for one very small notice, almost nothing

(he gives several very good speeches, but these do not get much major media coverage...alas...the MM is in the tank for Soros and Hilliary)

Trump needs to get a campaign going! I am NOT a political expert, but the MM is not gonna help him win...that’s for sure....and if he doesn’t advertise or mobilize....soon??????

that’s all I meant. nothing more than that.

Faith it’s a whole new social world out there and The Trump Campaign understands it better than the Obama people did - and they were dang good. Trump is getting ~30 million people every day hearing his personal opinions in near real time. And here’s the best part, it’s darn near free to do it. The audience continues to grow. He’s so far out in front of the 6 o’clock news that their broadcast is stale in terms of today’s standards for information dissemination. Trump has engaged the online crowd like no one has ever done and it’s brilliant - absolutely brilliant. The more traditional avenues are coming and it’ll be a double barreled broadside. Keep your powder dry.

Sounds promising. Thsnks

You’ll need to post your membership number in the “I’m Smarter Thant Trump Club” if you expect to post comments like that.

Another $500 million or so and he might begin to run a competitive campaign.

It seems like Linda McMahon spent that much running for Senate in Connecticut. Near the end it was hurting her more than helping her. The Trump campaign (as opposed to the PACs) have to get good ad rates by law, so as long as the spots are open, he'll have time. It's not like Iowa or New Hampshire with a dozen guys running at the same time.

1% of what he’ll spend before Nov 8th.

"Trump's campaign has already rendered traditional campaigning obsolete. "

No it hasn't.

100 million stupid people will vote come Nov 8th.

50 million of them have not made up their mind with finality.

TV is the way to reach stupid people.

Jeb! Glad you could join us!

You still flyin' that crop duster?

He’s doing great I hope some of his speeches make it into commercials.

The speech today sure looked tailor made for several sections to be used in creating killer TV ads! Awesome with the right music score and talented screen writers.

The first are to be aired (tv lingo!) this weekend!

Salute!

Or he can run the commercial on instagram and then let the msm run it over and over in order to show their outrage.

I heard a number of months ago that Sheldon Adelson is giving the Trump campaign $100 million.

Mr. Adelson....the Las Vegas casino magnate....is worth more than 30 billion dollars.

Please clap.

Thanks for the clarification. Legit concerns.

It appears Trump is about to get his party started.
