Republicans take it as an article of faith that voters are not paying attention until the last three weeks, so they save their ad spending for a major blitz at that time. Makes it hard on the faithful who have to watch the opponents spend early and take a big lead in media polls, but history seems to have proven that - absent an October Surprise - it does work. On voters. Has no effect whatsoever on ballots.

The transformational effect of social media campaigning, however, has yet to be fully analyzed. Trump has many supporters on X - but other major social media sites are turning into Trump-Free Zones.

Pretty much anyone who's MAGA is at X right now. Meta is a joke. They'll ban you for mentioning Trump. So it's nothing but nonstop liberal propaganda.

All Trump and Vance need to do is stay on a tight message right now, so that all reporting on them must refer to that message.

Trump seems incapable of following that simple plan.

Even if he comes out of this coma in the Fall, I’m afraid he isn’t preparing a good plan.

One major concern is he’s listening to his kids. Very nice, but where is his Manafort or even Corey L?

Not exactly true. My son is on Tik Tok and says there are many pro-Trump pages and accounts, with millions of views/followers. He says there are surprisingly many blacks who post positive videos in support of Trump.
