I will start spending big next month

That probably helped some candidates, notably Christie, more than others. Ted Cruz has drawn ahead – has made a selling point out of the fact that his campaign is self-funded. Is Jeb Bush perfectly positioned to take this thing?

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he’ll be making a big ad buy in early voting states – his first series of ads in the 2016 presidential race.

Trump first hinted at plans to start spending at a rally Monday evening in New Hampshire and tweeted about his plans Tuesday morning.

Incumbent US President Barack Obama remained top third most mentioned in media although he is not running for the White House anymore after having completed two continuous tenures. Trump defies the stereotype.

During his remarks Monday night, Trump brandished a copy of the paper, which he referred to as “a pile of garbage”, and said he had skipped a Union Leader forum in August because he did not think it “appropriate” for him to attend. Who do you want to be the next president of the United States: Hillary Clinton or Marco Rubio?

“Donald Trump isn’t a career politician beholden to the special interests that have damaged and weakened our once great nation”.

‘If you attack Trump, he will attack you 10 times as hard, ‘ one Trump adviser told Fox. The GOP presidential candidate even went as far as to accuse the party of trying to disallow independent voters.

The campaign team is working with several politically savvy media companies, Kurtz reports, citing unnamed sources – and is ready to shell up to $100 million overall.

As Ed Kilgore notes, Trump’s involvement with established political vendors is “another sign that Trump is gradually being accepted… as an entirely legitimate candidate”.

“You have a lot of friends in Iowa”, Trump said. As the New York Times’ Emma Roller writes, Trump is capable of effortlessly going viral because he is “volatile in nature and allergic to nuance”. He supports the men and women serving in our military and understands that our national security must be our number one priority – including the security of our borders.

However, the Trump team understands that a loss in Iowa could cause those margins in New Hampshire and SC to narrow quickly and dramatically, and that once Trump’s aura of invincibility is broken, he may not be able to fix it.
