    The Trump campaign is running its own more modest ad buy, including advertising in Trump’s home turf of West Palm Beach, raising eyebrows about how solidly red or MAGA Florida is.

    That’s probably Trump. The Lincoln Project and some others specifically run ads in places he’s likely to be, hoping to get under his skin (and maybe reach some of the voters). He’s probably been bitterly complaining about it and the campaign is running local ads to appease him.

    I really hope they blanket Fox, et al, the night before the debate, really get under his skin there.

      This is exactly what the Lincoln Project thinks is happening, iirc they called the ad buys the campaign buying him a “safety blanket” to protect from the “mean” ads.
