Donald Trump sidelines $10m for more TV ads in swing states
The Donald Trump campaign is set to make its second investment in TV ads as the GOP candidate drifts behind rival Hillary Clinton’s spend substantially.
Donald Trump has attacked Clinton on the economy
The entrepreneur just invested his first $5m in a TV presence earlier in August, while Clinton reached $61m at that time.
His ad buy will focus on Ohio, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Florida, New Hampshire, Virginia, Iowa, Colorado and Nevada, claiming the Clinton will bring in a raft of new taxes.
By upping the spend, Trump shows that he is becoming less dependent on his social media reach and the media coverage his campaign has mustered.
