Donald Trump’s presidential campaign is showing signs of crashing and burning as the billionaire is refusing to spend money on a real campaign operation.
Politico detailed Trump’s refusal to spend money to get out the vote:
He remains the favorite to win Tuesday night’s primary, though Republicans in the state expect he will fall short of the 20-plus point lead he has touted on the stump. And that’s at least partly due to a refusal to invest in analytics and organizational capacity on the ground — a structural deficit he suffers beyond New Hampshire.
Folks inside the tent have said worryingly that Trump is charting his own course,” said one New Hampshire Republican.
….
This comes in addition to complaints that Trump refused additional infrastructure investments and had moved only one paid organizer into New Hampshire to supplement the team.
In lieu of any announcement of a major funding boost for its New Hampshire get-out-the-vote operation, Trump’s team has hustled this week to dispel the widespread assessment that its penny-pinching candidate was at a disadvantage here.
Trump has no pollsters, field organization, analytics team, or get out the vote operation. The Donald Trump presidential campaign is nothing more that free television appearances and public opinion polls. Donald Trump’s campaign is based on attention-getting mega rallies and gobbling up free media on cable news. There is no actual operation in place to convert the people who say they support Trump into actual voters on election day.
What happened in Iowa was not an isolated incident. Ted Cruz out organized Trump and won the caucuses. Donald Trump is so far ahead in the New Hampshire polling that he is expected to win the state, but no one should be surprised if he gets out-hustled on the ground again, and his margin of victory is much smaller that the polls suggest.
Donald Trump has revealed a flaw in the public opinion polls. The people who are being polled are influenced by what they see on television. News networks are creating a self-fulfilling prophecy with their polling. The networks are addicted to Trump. They give him endless coverage. These same networks poll the voters who say that they support Trump, which leads to a cycle of Trump getting, even more, attention. What’s missing in the media echo chamber is real life voters who show up to support the candidate.
Trump is trying to win the Republican nomination on the cheap. He doesn’t want to spend the money that is required to turn supporters into voters. In real world terms, Trump is going to under perform against the polling. He will probably win New Hampshire, but his margin likely won’t be as big as the polling suggests.
The Donald Trump presidential campaign is a mirage. Without a real organization behind it, the Trump campaign will crumble. Attendance for Trump’s rallies is on the decline. The actual nuts and bolts evidence on the ground suggests that Trump is trending downwards.
If Trump does manage to win the Republican nomination, his lack of resources and organization will lead to an epic crash and burn in the general election. Donald Trump is trying to con his way into the White House. Trump isn’t running a campaign for president, and his refusal to spend money on what it takes to win is what will lead to his eventual downfall.
