So the campaign recently spent 55 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 3: about fifty thousand dollars to run these fifteen second spots 56 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 3: on the Big News Network, specifically in Palm Beach County 57 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 3: where mar A Lago is.

And apparently this wasn't the 60 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 3: first time this happened. In twenty twenty, in the lead 61 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 3: up to the twenty twenty election, his funkies did like 62 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 3: a four hundred thousand dollars add buy in DC or 63 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 3: something like that DC. 64 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 2: Because he was sad about his poll numb verse.
