Trump Campaign Airs Ads Near Mar-A-Lago To Stroke Trump's Fragile Ego
When news came out this morning that the Trump campaign was buying ads in Florida it had many people scratching their heads, as Florida is not expected to be competitive. But then people noticed where the ads were targeted (Palm Beach County) and people began to put 2+2 together. They weren't trying to persuade people to vote for Trump, they were just trying to make Trump happy.
Others have also speculated the ads are being aired after George Conway's much larger ad buy in the same area with his Anti-Psychopath PAC that highlighted Trump's "mental unfitness for office." Conway aired the ads on Fox News, ESPN, and the Golf Channel around Bedminster and Mar-a-Lago. Ads that Trump saw and was not so happy.

Donald Trump's campaign is set to run cable news ads this week so they can be seen at the ex-president’s Mar-a-Lago club and surrounding environs.
The South Florida expense is likely to have no impact on the course of the election. Palm Beach County is a Democratic stronghold in a Republican state that Trump has little chance of losing. But Trump’s staff is at some risk of incurring his wrath if he—and his Palm Beach pals—don’t see his ads at Mar-a-Lago, a factor that insiders say compelled the purchase.
