      Interesting how the volume of TV advertisements peaked in the 2012 election, even though only one party had a competitive primary in 2012.pic.twitter.com/hbYawYfwsC

      Recall: Karl Rove alone spent $103 mil on ads in 2012, with abysmal results. Trump rode a wave of discontent with that model to the GOP nom.

      Amazingly, Bernie Sanders aired more total TV ads than Trump, despite Sanders... not running a general election campaign.pic.twitter.com/Qpl60pDxnn

          Less commercials doesn't mean less airtime and exposure. I mean, Trump empty podium got covered over live Bernie speeches.

          This also suggests Bernie got the best bang for the buck -- contrary to notions about progressives disregarding costs.

          These numbers in the context that Trump used Cambridge Analytica in primary and general make perfect sense. Less $$ for the win

          TV ads are decided by demographics. Trump used big data and psychographics to target individuals on various social media sites.
