>> One thing to consider when you look at these numbers is that Donald apparently has not spent a dime on TV advertising <<
Any clue as to WHY Trump is holding back and letting Hillary & the media define him?

No one knows. It’s certainly deliberate on Trump’s part. One of Trump’s deal making tricks is to apear less than he is. For example durine the primaries Ted Cruz never stoped crowing about his data team and ground game and it was repeated over and over again that Trump didn’t have either. The reality is that Trump had a large data effort contracted out that gave Trump better analysis than Ted Cruz was getting. Trump just never talked about it and poor Ted was left flat footed in loss after loss by better team Trump get out the vote efforts.
I agree, its frustrating.
2 main theories
#1- Trump camp feels its a waste of money right now, as Hillary has spent over $90 mill in ads and she has a 3-5 pt lead at best... if you believe the biased polls...Best to unload a barrage on her in the last 6-8 weeks. (plus the internal belief that wikileaks is sitting on some bombshells they plan to release closer to the election)
#2- Trump has been screwed over by the RNC and top GOPe stiffs at every turn, so he won’t spend much in a rigged losing effort. He can get free media anytime and is way bigger on twitter (and social media in general) than Hilldawg... This is the one I fear.
