Clinton Running Anti-Trump Ads in California
CNN | August 31st, 2016 | Mariner

Posted on 08/31/2016 5:40:16 PM PDT by Mariner

I just witnessed an anti-Trump ad on CNN here in Sacramento, CA.

What's up with that? Is she just throwing money away, or is she in trouble everywhere?

I’m hoping there really is a monster vote out there of people who had given up on voting and are going to come out to elect Trump by at least a 35 state landslide.

Numbers are up for the primaries and registrations.

Maybe there really are Americans who want to keep their country........

CNN is a national feed not just California.

The feed is national, but commercial spots are filled by local affiliate.

You’re correct making the poster’s comment stunning. The only way you’d be wrong is if she were running it so broadly national was cheaper. But, then again isn’t everyone with CNN already with her?

I predicted last year that Trump would beat the witch like a drum. She is obnoxious and no amount of lipstick will make that pig likeable.

She has a voice like fingers on a chalkboard and even her own allies don't like her.

Yes, she's in trouble. She was in Trouble when Trump won the nomination.

I Think Trump should start hitting NY hard.

I agree with that. I think CT is doable as well.

I've said this before but...

Out neighbors and good friends, the local police chief and his wife, true blue Yankee Democrats, are both voting for The Donald.

The Chiefette (and I say that with the utmost affection) has voted Ralph Nader. More than once.

If she doesn't like Hitlery, anything is possible.

We cut the cable and only have the gazillion channels we watch via antenna. One of our fav channels is ION, but primarily because they show Blue Bloods all day on Thursday. They also show a lot of Law & Order, Numbers and Criminal Minds. Have noticed recently that anti-Trump commercials have been popping up but only during Law & Order. So they are covering lots of fronts.

Here in Washington state, pro-Clinton and anti-Trump ads have been running for several weeks. I can’t help but think that if they are spending that much money on ads in what should be a “safe blue” state that things must be really, really bad for Clinton.

She’s airing the ads nationally. I saw numerous ads for her here in Kentucky during the Olympics because she was airing them nationally on NBC.

" Mr Trump could win CA..."

Trump has NO possibility of winning the Socialist Republic of California. It has a socialist hippie Governor and socialist Senate and Assembly. California is beyond repair. It is the quintessential "GIMMEDAT" state/society. I can no longer see the difference between Cali and the failures of socialist nations in Europe, and now Venezuela.

I've lived here all my life, except for 3 years in Spain while Navy, and have watched it slowly disintegrate into a bleeding-heart socialist experiment that caters to anything contrary to decency. Where do you think all this LGBTQxyz crap comes from that has infected our nation and institutions? It originated in San Francisco, CA.

Governor Ronald Reagan was the last leader we had who understood virtues and Constitutional ideals. We tried some years back to restore our heritage by kicking out Gov. Davis. We succeeded, but got Ahnuld and went down hill from there. I voted for McClintock.

Best Trump spend his time and money in the "battle ground" states. He has NO chance of winning California.

I agree.

Trump isn’t even bothering opening a campaign office or spending money in CA.

With liberal voters in SF and LA, a Republican can pretty much write off the state.

Trump doesn’t need CA to win.

Dems generally buy Network ads while we repubs buy more targeted market ads (as memory serves). Of course, this is costly because we pay a huge chunk to the consultants to make those buys.

Yay, I’ve been saying that for months.

Lot’s of Indy’s in CT, probably going Trump.

My guess is that it was a NATIONAL cable ad, so it ran in Sacramento and Topeka and Chicago...unless you see Hitlery ads running on local tv news, she probably isn’t spending money strictly in your city...
jmho.

we know several hundred people, mostly D’s in that once-great state...
and they are ALL either voting for Trump or considering voting for him and only one out of 200 thinks he still may vote for Hilliary

the issue is not CA being leftist , it is
the issue is Hilliary

My guess is that the msm and dems are so shell shocked that they have yet to settle on cohesive talking points, so none of them know what they are supposed to say! (cowards).

Exactly correct.

Watch: in the next day or two, the talking heads--national and local news--will begin to mimic each other...they will repeat whatever lie they are TOLD to say by their DNC masters. (I don't necessarily mean they get memos. But they all hear/read/watch what the house organs--the NY Slimes, CNN, Clinton campaign crap--say. Then it is recycled.)

The price of a national ad on CNN is the same as the cost of ten large cities. So running an ad across the state of California and Washington is the same price as running it across the country. Often they don’t do that because its not targeted. However I am guessing that the message here pertains to most people.
