Trump campaign cancels TV ads to try to figure out how to stop losing to Biden



By Emily Singer -July 31, 2020 9:23 AM
Trump campaign is hitting the reset button.

Donald Trump's campaign is removing its current television ads from the airwaves and reviewing its messaging strategy, hitting a full-scale reset button roughly three months out from Election Day, the Washington Post reports.

The move comes as Trump has fallen far behind presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, both nationally and in every critical swing state — making Trump an underdog.

It also comes two weeks after Trump replaced his former campaign manager Brad Parscale with Bill Stepien.

It's unclear what the review will find.

Hey Stepien remember this moment ................



this is your "team leader"


and let's not forget about the Russian bounties on US service personnel in Afghanistan and other places............

I don't think that will happen since you can't help yourself.

Trump's ads could say Biden was Satan and eats babies and it wouldn't stop voters from fleeing that monstrosity. I only hope it gets WORSE for him every day until the election. It will drive him mad that nothing is working.

Maybe it's not Biden, Donnie. Maybe it's YOU.

This isn’t the first campaign “reset,” and it won’t be the last.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

The beat goes on.

7. I don't think a change in advertising is going to help

I saw a commercial last night about how Biden was unqualified using some Sam Donaldson report from the 80s.

Really? This is what you have? 35 year old news clips? You think the guy who just lost his job, and his mom died of Covid, and his kids are terrified to go back to school, is going to be swayed by that?

But this is what drumpf does because the cupboard of his accomplishments is BARE. no matter what ads he runs he’ll never be doing anything other than trying to sell a shit sandwich.

Fire protests and mayhem in Biden’s America (filmed on location in Trump’s America).

11. I can't think of 1 thing Trump can run on that would have wide appeal

He fucks up everything he touches. Even simple stuff. I wonder if privately Republicans in the Senate regret not convicting him when they had the chance.

By default, Pence would have done a better job with the pandemic. And given what's going on, most people would have forgotten about the impeachment.

Even if he were to drop out of the election tomorrow, I don't think there is a Republican who could recover from the damage Trump has done.

I think Republicans are going to hope they can keep the Senate. Or at least stay close enough to disrupt the bigger democrat initiatives and try to mount a mid-year attack to get congress back.
