I'm sitting at a hair salon with the radio playing and there have been 3 Harris ads so far, nothing from Trump.
I haven't seen any banner ads or streaming ads for him either.
I know this is all anecdotal, but seriously: Where are Trump's campaign ads? They seem absent from the normie space.
EDIT: this is in a battleground state where he definitely needs his ads playing.
what would be the motivation?
To protect their dependency system and careers. Trump & Vance suggest a major re-alignment of power. Which means the controlled opposition of the corporate right would be thrown into the wind. Their entire careers would be over because the re-alignment would have to be around an entirely different order than what they are used to.
This is why old civilizations used to move capitals, it would effectively negate an entire aristocracy out of an empire's control mechanism.
