    Trump already tried a replay of the birther nonsense again, that failed

    Political campaigns squander money on elections. That is their function. Trump still has way more money on tap than Biden. I think this is why we are seeing these democrat lie factories like The Atlantic print outright fabrications that don't require large media buys to receive coverage.

    Trump has repeatedly stated what his policies are. What are Biden's?

    7 Details from a New Report Expose Financial Turmoil — and Bitter Backstabbing — in the Trump Campaign

    President Donald Trump’s campaign is having money trouble, according to a New York Times report, while former Vice President Joe Biden’s team is flush with cash.

    Biden announced a record-breaking sum of nearly $365 million in fundraising for the month of August, swiftly outpacing the president’s best month. And the report Monday from the Times exposed just how deep and sordid the story behind the Trump campaign’s depleted coffers and revealed signs of animosity brewing with its ranks.

    Here are seven key details from the report:

    Lol. Trump's plan:

    Well, one of the things that will be really great, you know the word experience is still good. I always say talent is more important than experience. I’ve always said that. But the word experience is a very important word. It’s an — a very important meaning.

    I never did this before. I never slept over in Washington. I was in Washington, I think, 17 times. All of a sudden, I’m president of the United States. You know the story. I’m riding down Pennsylvania Avenue with our First Lady and I say, ‘This is great. But I didn’t know very many people in Washington. It wasn’t my thing. I was from Manhattan, from New York. Now I know everybody, and I have great people in the administration.”

    You make some mistakes. Like, you know, an idiot like Bolton. All he wanted to do was drop bombs on everybody. You don’t have to drop bombs on everybody. You don’t have to kill people.

    No campaign has squandered money on Super Bowl ads. Trump did so because of a personal grudge. I think Trump fans should send him all their money. Sell their houses, cars, cash in their 401K's. Give everything to Trump. He loves you.

    Biden's policy is to attack Trump with fake media stories.

    Bloomberg spent his own money. Yes, it was a contest to Trump. What a child.

    ~ All political campaigns are contests. Trump just puts on a better show.

    Revisionist history. Trump spent the money on the superbowl to fight the Dems and MSM BS witch hunt impeachment, let's compare who spent the most on impeachment then get back to us. It was needed and obviously worked.

    Might as well blow it all on porn and fried chicken.

    The left is handing Team Trump all the priceless campaign material they need free of charge.

    Except it doesn't look like politics. Looks like a pissing contest.
