Maybe it's just me but,

Has anyone noticed the seeming lack of Trump or pro Trump campaign ads on TV or radio?

I have lost count how many Biden/anti-Trump ads I see and hear on a daily basis but I can't remember the last time I have seen a pro Trump ad. I follow him on Twitter and Facebook and they are plentiful oddly enough, just seems to be pretty rare on TV.

^^ TV ads cost a lot of money. Trump recently had to cancel $25 million in ad buys.

The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Do you know how recent? I heard a discussion some weeks back the Trump campaign had dumped out of a lot of TV ads, counting on a big social media presence. It seemed an odd choice at that time considering the social media monsters were very unhappy at Trump's success on their platforms in 2016 and have worked since to keep that from happening again.

Is everyone ready for COVID-19 hysteria week? The Lamestream media and their establishment counterparts will be doing everything in their power to push this last message - how cases are spiraling out of control and Trump is responsible as the devil incarnate. Just watch and listen to the idiocy as they continue to pull a blanket over Biden’s corruption.

The President's son-in-law Jared Kushner has remained mostly in the background throughout, although I know he has been a primary architect of the Mideast peace deals and other programs. I heard him do an interview with Fox news this morning. That is one really smart, impressive, well spoken guy. I wish we had seen and heard more of him.

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...ith-7-figure-ad-buy/

President Donald Trump’s campaign took over the prime spot on YouTube’s landing page as part of a seven-figure ad buy on the platform to put its videos in front of voters in the days leading up to the November 3 election.

One video, “Did Something Happen to Joe Biden?”, focuses on the alleged cognitive decline of the Democratic Party nominee, comparing clips from just a few years ago, when he was vice president, to more recent footage.

As Fox News noted last week, the campaign has taken over the YouTube masthead before — notably, on the day of the last presidential debate

The Trump campaign says it’s secured the masthead on the 20 most important days of the election cycle for maximum impact, including during the Democratic National Convention and the Republican National Convention. They’ve bought the masthead for Election Day, too.

The campaign said it had first dibs on all dates in 2020 over Biden due to its 2019 partnership with Google.

The Biden campaign, meanwhile, has borrowed from then-candidate Trump’s playbook, and has reserved time for a two-minute closing argument on television in battleground states right before the election.

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

not sure what "taken over the YouTube masthead" actually means

CTH:

The MAGA rallies, parades and grassroots events are breaking out independent of each-other and literally happening all over the place on any given day. Miles and miles of cars with Trump flags… same with boats… and sometimes just marches in the street where thousands of people just gather and walk with American flags, Trump banners, and other gear.

To make the marches even more effective a really smart organic approach has started and we now see Trump rallies and marches targeted to the exact event venues where Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are showing up.

The Trump supporters easily outnumber the Biden supporters by 20:1 or more. The magnitude of the MAGAnitude is incredible. This is totally organic, but word has spread and now it is happening everywhere

^^^^^

That was in my neck of the woods in Lower Bucks County PA. My brother lives right across the street from there. It's 3:1 Democrats in these areas, this is very surprising to see.

We were up at the hunting camp this past week. I could not believe the amount of Trump signs everywhere. I don't ever recall seeing many political signs during any election year but this year it's just ridiculous. Going from the camp down to Wilkes Barre it seemed like almost every house and farm had at least a couple of Trump signs with most having Trump flags too.

It feels like 2020 the enthusiasm for Trump is far greater than it was in 2016.

I hope you are right. It will be needed. In 2016 the margin of victory in PA was only 44K votes, less than 1%.
In 2020, there is a slightly lesser rural population and a slightly greater urban/suburban population in PA.

In 2016 Trump was an unknown. No track record, found you take him at his word.

Fast forward four years he’s no longer the mystery candidate and he has indeed done just about everything he promised he would do.

It’s unusual for a politician to keep his word but I think it’s finally sinking in that President Trump isn’t a politician but is a businessman who understands that the business Of the Inited States is business.

Finally we have someone who doesn’t offer lip service to outrageous promises.

In many conversations with people you will hear them say they don't much care for the way Trump says things.

But, in the privacy of one's mind, they tend to agree with, and have the same thoughts about many of those things.

Voting is done in private.

No wonder there are countries that have banned Soros from interfering in their affairs.



George Soros spends last-minute millions on black and Latino voter turnout efforts in key states

The liberal billionaire has spent upwards of $70 million on the 2020 election cycle alone

https://justthenews.com/politi...latino-voter-turnout



Billionaire investor George Soros is funneling last-minute, big-dollar donations into political actions committees to increase voter turnout among black and Latino voters in swing states, according to new Federal Election Commission records.

Soros gave $500,000 each to the Black PAC and the Somos PAC, which respectively work to encourage turnout in black and Latino communities.

In September, Soros, a major backer of progressive causes, also funneled millions of dollars into strategic electoral efforts in the key battleground states of Pennsylvania and Michigan through the Strategic Victory Find, which is a super PAC linked to the Democracy Alliance donor network, which he runs.

Soros has already funneled about $70 million into the 2020 election cycle, more than doubling the amount he spent in 2016. Liberal billionaire donors, including former mayor of New York City and presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg, have spent many millions this cycle to advance Democratic candidates in swing states and the rest.

The Somos PAC, which also lists Bloomberg's Florida Freedom PAC among its largest benefactors, describes itself as the "first progressive, centralized hub for research, messaging, training, and mobilization" for Latino voters in battleground areas. Its efforts have been focused primarily on support for Democrats including presidential nominee Joe Biden, Arizona Senate candidate Mark Kelly and Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, who is running for reelection in Florida's 26th district.

The Black PAC is similarly focused on support for Biden, but has spent significant amounts of funding in support of incumbent Sen. Gary Peters of Michigan, Reps. Lucy McBath of Georgia and Elaine Luria of Virginia, and Senate hopeful Cal Cunningham in North Carolina.

This cycle, Soros's influential dollars have also made their way to the Senate Majority PAC, which is affiliated with current Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer, and the House Majority PAC, affiliated with Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
