Trump To Spend $55M In Final Swing State Ads Push

Axios reports: 

The Trump campaign and Republican National Committee plan to spend an additional $55 million on coordinated ad buys in the remaining two weeks of the 2020 election, campaign manager Bill Stepien told reporters on a Monday call.

The campaign and the RNC will jointly target Arizona, Iowa, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Michigan — all considered critical swing states. RNC chair Ronna McDaniel told reporters on a Monday call that one ad would target Joe Biden’s health care plan.

Axios’ Jonathan Swan reported last week that three senior Trump advisers who recently talked to Stepien walked away believing he thinks they will lose. Despite his pessimistic tone in private conversations, Stepien told reporters on Monday that he is “certain” that President Trump will win Florida, Ohio, Iowa and Nevada.
