Donald Trump Calls Bill Clinton a ‘Great Abuser’
Donald Trump has said that he will spend at least $2 million a week on his campaign to become the Republican party’s presidential candidate.
Trump, who has spent virtually no money in political television ads so far, said Tuesday he is planning to spend a minimum of $2 million a week, and perhaps substantially more than that, on TV campaign ads. “I’m going to be doing big ads in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and they’re going to be very substantial and I think they’re very well done; I’ve seen the first two or three of them”. He said: “I don’t think I need to spend anything”.
Despite Trump’s typically ironclad confidence, he told reporters invited aboard his private jet Tuesday he didn’t want to take anything for granted.
“We’re going to be talking about a lot of things including the border, including trade, including Isil, and security for the country”.
The Republican presidential front-runner says he doesn’t “want to take any chances”.
He also weighed in on the outlays of Jeb Bush and his supporters, which, at $40 million, exceeds that of any campaign so far. He has said he expected to have to spend $35 million in advertising by January 1. He has also insisted that he has spent very little on his campaign so far, and yet is the frontrunner.
Since the real estate mogul announced his candidacy in June, his tendency for combative language has resulted in a steady stream of what he himself has termed “free nationwide publicity”, often stemming from comments made during the five Republican debates or during his speeches at packed rallies.
The billionaire businessman said on Monday that the spending spree would begin next Monday.
Trump says he believes the thousands who attend his rallies, like the more than 3,000 in Council Bluffs, will turn out to vote for him.
