Biden puts financial windfall to work with new ad campaign that outpaces Trump

Joe Biden flexed his newfound financial advantage over President Trump with a $15.4 million television and radio advertising campaign targeting at least nine states, an investment that puts the Democratic nominee on track to outspend the Republican incumbent by $1.4 million over the next seven days.

The former vice president is on offense in Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, with advertising expenditures that are outpacing Trump in each of these critical battlegrounds. Additionally, the president is defending Georgia, Iowa, and Ohio, states he won with relative ease four years ago, with sizable ad buys that are going virtually unchallenged on the airwaves by his Democratic opponent.

To mark the first week of the fall sprint to Election Day, the Biden campaign infused his advertising campaign with two new television spots. The first, a mostly positive, 60-second ad lays out the nominee’s domestic agenda. The other, a 30-second spot, hits Trump over Social Security, claiming his proposal to defer or eliminate the payroll tax would push the popular entitlement program into insolvency.

"In the few states he's targeting, Trump has been badly outspent on the airwaves,” Biden campaign spokesman Michael Gwin said. “Even then, the Biden-Harris campaign — powered by enormous grassroots support — has rapidly erased Trump's cash-on-hand advantage as his team spends money like drunken sailors.”

No money and shrinking 'crowds' are the walls closing in on Trump?

TV and Radio ads don't work anymore.

Biden is fighting with the old war plans.

Metaphorically speaking of course.  I'm sure Jill is very content in the thought of being the 1st Lay.

I caught a couple of his ads on cable. Meh. Lies. Not fooling me, nor anyone here. Banning fracking won't play in oil country.

The crowds aren't shrinking @rustynail  The rallies ... um... peaceful protests are back. There was one on Tuesday with 15,000 and there's one tonight.

The campaign is not out of money.  The President and his team have an uncanny sense of timing.  When the time is right we will once again blanket the airwaves as needed.

I'll grant you this: Your side does have the advantage of a steady stream of money from Soros and Bloomberg and Powell-Jobs.

But we've got Trump   :tongue2:

I don't know about the rest of you folks, but I don't watch political ads at all.
Not even those for the guys for whom I'll be voting.

They could spend $100 billion, not $1.00 of it will reach me.
