Donald Trump's campaign has spent $0 on TV ads in the general-election season — a big drop off from the $52 million being spent by Hillary Clinton's campaign.
Recently released ad-spending data from Advertising Analytics showed that Trump's campaign not only spent astronomically less than Clinton's, but also those of Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson and Green Party nominee Jill Stein.
However, pro-Trump PACs have spent more than $8 million on TV ads during the general-election cycle — still a significant decline from pro-Clinton groups spending more than $37 million.
After a slow start, Trump's fundraising has picked up steam, with the candidate pulling in roughly $80 million last month. Clinton's campaign reported $90 million in fundraising last month.

and she reportedly stole some of our WH furniture too
....I guess I saw a free Trump ad...
Don’t recall seeing any ad with him saying,”I’m Donald Trump, and I approved this message.”
SuperPacs are running ads for him. Probably saw one of them.
Yes let Hildebeast spend now. Trump will have ads later. It is still a little early.
understood.
but if Trump doesn’t control his message, that very same communistic media will control it
we have seen several examples of the media twisting Trump’s message just in this last few days
he can’t win if he continues to let them twist his messages
just my opinion
Media executives fund Clinton campaign. Clinton campaign funds media companies. It is ne big slush fund.
Romney's strategist thought that way and dragged his feet on ads and organization.
Campaign watchers regard that as a big mistake.
Some people think Trump doesn't need to learn from past experience because there's some vast pool of voters who don't declare themselves for him publicly but who'll pull the lever for him in November.
Barry Goldwater thought the same way. It didn't work out for him.
Plus, the way things are going, by November there will be plenty of long-time Republican voters who get so fed up with the circus that they don't bother voting.
Mainly gibmedats, to judge from liberal opposition to cutting back early voting.
I do not recall ANY STRONG and BLUNT attack on Obama attributes by Mitt after the RNC convention.
No mention of his 2 devout Muslim fathers,
no mention of being enrolled in a Madrassah school,
no mention of his multiple social security numbers,
no mention of his sealed academic records,
no mention of his travels to Pakistan and Saudi Arabia,
no mention of his smoking crack in college.
No wonder the media hates Trump so much! It’s all about money, their money they think.
Bout time someone said it......
Barack Obama, for all of his faults, ran a smart campaign. He took advantage of ‘new media’ while McCain and Romney were still running 80s and 90s style campaigns. In hindsight, neither of them stood a chance.
Now the shoe is on the other foot. Trump has taken a page out of BOs book. And he’s whomping Hillary with it.
Worked for Reagan v ISSR
Worked for Reagan v USSR
also a LOT of more conservative people do vote early
but at ANY event,
Trump CAN GET A LOT OF D VOTES IF HE advertises and campaigns on his CLEAN UP THE CORRUPTION IN WASHINGTON plank!
ALSO Trump can get tons of Bernie voters if he does that....
AND IF HE reminds them how Hilliary purchased the D nomination right out from under them!!!!!!!
but people are starting to vote early and tons of them do nowadays, Mr Trump has to start his real campaign!!!!!!!!!!! imho
Haven’t seen a Hillary commercial yet....
Trump for President.
Wipe the cookie crumbs of your mouth before you post, concern troll.
And take a shower, you stink.
[...she reportedly stole...]
It was a true, she had to return all the furniture and other item valued at over 80 thousand dollars.
Most Americans can’t afford $80,000 for furniture. But most Americans don’t steal it, either. She belongs in prison
Plus super pacs have spent almost forty mill.
Trump will roll out after Labor Day Where are the trump super pacs
Probably a super pac ad
Hillary supporters have to have hourly propaganda indoctrination messaging lest they wake up and realize where reality is. Thats why the need for a 24/7 non stop barrage.
Trump supporters don’t need any more reminders, influence, intimidation or suggestions, its a done deal much to the dismay of the media machine, and mostly why Trump isn’t spending millions on tv ads, why should he?
He is way smarter than that, when he spends its for effect, not for pay to play.
