Cancelations represent next week's buy, per the sources.  Possible they are shifting elsewhere for final three weeks

Have emailed Trump campaign about their ad cancelations, but have not heard back yet.

Sooo......what do you make of it?  I have yet to see one Trump anti-Hillary ad here in Texas.  Is he so arrogant that he assumes he has this election in the bag?

Trump is throwing in the towel.  He's one mediocre debate performance away from massive GOP stampede away from him.

Rush mentioning this now.  Saying it's just in some of the smaller markets/cities and that Trump hasn't pulled out.  Something about a retweet.

Oh wait.  It's the NYT (New York Slimes) again.

Nevermind.

I don't think he yet realizes that almost everything hinges on the next debate, both currently and historically. Currently because he's had a crappy first one and a bad time since, historically because that's what sunk both Romney and McCain.

I know if he can't get it together for this one, I'm flipping both candidates the bird and walking away. Vote the down ticket and go home.

Watch Trump figure out some way to start paying himself back for all those loans he had to forgive.  Maybe start holding rallies at Mar-a-Lago and Skype in audiences in Ohio, NC.

I still say they run Romney. Trump bails, Romney is the only guy that makes sense for them. Been saying it for months now.

I don't live in a swing state, but has He been buying many ads?  Here in WA where Hillary doesn't need to spend a dime to win, I see her ads often. Her purse must be huge if she is not concerned where to spend the money.

FYI, ad buys are all public info. They must be listed by the stations when purchased. They generally post them on their websites, but if I recall there are other sites that aggregate them.

Remember this is the NYT's..they want you to believe he is pulling out and it is absolutely not the case....Trump is trying to save money on ad buys where he is ahead.

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Toledo is rural?  Trump is way ahead in Youngstown??  (Wheeling is in OH??)

Methinks Rush is making things up now.......

Lately I take half of what Rush says and believe 50% of that, which would still be giving him the benefit of the doubt.

He does in Texas.  It would be foolish of him to waste money in the Texas market that might be better spent in the  Pennsylvania market.   


He shouldn't waste any money in Utah or Oklahoma either.

Yes, but if Toledo is on the list and Rush says he's pulling out advertising because he's ahead in rural areas, then Rush is making things up.

Plus........ I grew up in Youngstown.  NO WAY is Trump ahead there.  They're as yellow dog Dem as yellow dogs get.

If the list is accurate, it's more likely that Trump is behind in those areas and conceding.
