The ex-president’s allies want his competition to drop out as they start focusing on Biden. But Trump’s team insists he’s not taking anything for granted.
Former President Donald Trump is on what seems like a glidepath to the nomination. He has largely eschewed traditional day-to-day campaigning and his social media missives toggle between attacks on his political opponents and laments about the legal troubles surrounding him. | Toby Brusseau/AP PhotoShortly after Miami Mayor Francis Suarez announced he was dropping his presidential bid, he found himself on the phone with someone who had paid him little attention up to that point: Donald Trump.
But he’s not taking his eye entirely off the primary. In fact, he and his team are heavily engaged behind the scenesIn recent weeks, Trump allies have worked with officials in various states to ensure that rules around the rewarding of delegates benefit them. Trump’s campaign has warned state party officials against dealing with super PACs, with an eye on choking off the efforts of Never Back Down, the super PAC supporting Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
The results: A man who once couldn’t resist a camera or crowd is doing a lot of his work outside of public view. While he has worked the phones, Trump has done far less on-the-ground campaigning than his competitors, his campaign says in part due to his near-universal name recognition and constant media attention.
Trump’s allied super PAC is largely mirroring this pick-and-choose your spots approach. Maga Inc. has spent more than $22 million on national advertising this year — more than any other campaign, and much of it focused on attacking DeSantis. But it has also periodically gone dark. And since Aug. 27, the super PAC has not aired a TV ad, according to ad tracking data. They stopped airing ads about DeSantis in late June.
