Air War in Michigan: ALL HILLARY, All The Time!

Just my personal observations from the past few days in Michigan:

Hillary has been clobbering Trump on the air in Michigan on television-- I don't recall hearing a single Trump ad over the past few days at all, but several anti-Trump pro-Hillary TV spots have been running very regularly-- Some of them have been by superpacs, and not the HRC campaign. (These have been both on cable and over-the-air television, I watch/listen to both depending on which part of the house I am in, LOL)

And yesterday, I began hearing radio versions of Hillary's anti-Trump ads on the pop and rock stations here, several times an hour all day long. This was the first time I've heard any such ads on regular commercial music radio, and they were ALL Hillary--- nary a Trump ad was heard. (Clearly he doesn't have the money, and the Republican party isn't helping much.)

Maybe there's some Trump ads playing somewhere here, sometime, but I sure haven't heard/seen any over the past week-- so if there are, they are few and far between (and rightly so!)

PS: Haven't heard any Trump ads on local right-wing radio either, which I peruse regularly to keep tabs on what the enemy is doing...


GO HILLARY!

I hit the mute button, but one is a standard ad, and the other has someone impersonating Hillary - pretty juvenile.

The Hillary ads are far outnumbering these sad productions.

where Trump plays every undead character appearing in this episode!

How can one tell if it's him or not? I don't know.

Ah, check for the small hands!

with a couple of unremarkable negative ads... I thought they were pretty weak. "Hillary means stagnant economy" but they gave no reason why that would be the case.

Still, I've only seen the two Trump ads today, whereas I lost count of how many pro-Hillary ads have been aired on the channels I've had on.

I can't recall any presidential election ad-war ever before being so lopsided. Poor Drumph...
