If there’s one thing liberals and the GOP agree on, it’s that the Donald must be stopped. As such, you end up with weird situations, like WaPo advising George Bush on stratagems for beating this bad Donald.
Bush still has one thing going for him, though: money. Right to Rise raised more than $103 million in the first six months of this year. It spent — as I mentioned above — $28 million on ads. For the sake of argument, let’s say that the organization has spent an additional $15 million on fundraising, consulting fees and other miscellaneous costs. And let’s also assume that Right to Rise hasn’t raised any more money since June 30. (It, of course, has.) A little simple math gets you this: Right to Rise should have (at least) $60 million left to spend on this race.
That’s a ton of cash. And although I know Right to Rise already has a plan in place to spend down its massive wad throughout February and March (and beyond) in hopes that Bush eventually emerges as the top choice, I just don’t see a lot of evidence that the race will yield that scenario unless there is a sizeable shake-up sometime soon.
So why not change course and use all of that money to try to force such a shake-up? Simply put: Take all of the ad time Right to Rise has reserved for Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina and turn the fire hose on full blast against Trump. I am talking about a sustained ad campaign whose sole aim is to disqualify Trump — not boost Bush. Sure, Bush and Right to Rise have jabbed at Trump — and a super PAC supporting Ohio Gov. John Kasich’s campaign for the Republican nomination has gone into full attack mode against the Donald — but no one other than the Bush forces has the money to maintain a sustained negative ad campaign against Trump in, at least, the first three voting states for the next few months.
…
Sure, a sustained attack on Trump could, theoretically, boomerang against Bush as Republicans — Trump supporters and not — come to see the move as dirty and punish Bush for what Right to Rise does. But,to be candid, what the heck do Bush and his allies have to lose at this point? He’s absolutely nowhere in the race.
It is, to be fair, about the best advice that could be given at this point. Even though it isn’t actually very good advice.
So far, television ads have proved completely pointless. Of no value whatsoever. If anything, they have been negative, especially the anti-Trump ones, as they have made the GOP look like a pathetic gaggle of shills, who are more interested in maintaining the status quo than actually winning.
Because it is an obvious fact that if the GOP establishment were willing to get behind Trump, he would get the nomination, and would almost certainly beat Hillary.
So by attacking Trump – as the loser Kasich did with his ad claiming that Trump would send everyone to death camps – the GOP is simply advertising the fact that they don’t care about winning, don’t care about what the people want.
Kasich’s ad also probably made Trump’s support swell, as it showed that conservative criticism of him is fundamentally ridiculous.
The main reason that TV ads are useless, however, is that most people do not watch TV anymore, and even those who do watch TV basically see a 24 hour commercial for Donald Trump on every cable news network. Trump has brilliantly used theatrics to turn his campaign into a nonstop spectacle, ensuring that the media can never stop paying attention to him.
Obviously, the majority of the coverage is negative, but that is entirely irrelevant. What is relevant is that his face is absolutely everywhere, all the time. This has the psychological effect of making it as though his Presidency is inevitable. In fact, it is like he is already President.
So yeah, Jeb might as well throw his millions in blood money he received from special interest groups at TV ads against Trump. Or he could buy an island somewhere and retire with his criminal Mexican family.
Who cares? I don’t care.
