Not everything unpleasant said by someone you’re not a fan of is wrong. In fact, it’s possible none of it is wrong. Rallies do have an air of preaching to the choir. You spend copious sums of money to bask in their adoration. Romans used to do splashy triumphs after successful campaigns. And they were fun. But did they convince anyone who wasn’t already a fan?

Political campaigns are about convincing the undecided and countering the other guy’s messaging. How was a rally not covered, except in a negative way, by the media, supposed to do that? You want to communicate directly with voters, you need to buy ads. Biden did not need them, because the media provided him with free advertising. He bought them anyway.
