 The Biden group handily outspent the Trump forces. Biden's attack ads often focused on abortion and the idea that Trump is the devil, a Hitler, an insurrectionist, an authoritarian, etc. None of these ads seem to have helped Biden in the polling. And for the record, as an aside, folks, it doesn't help that Joe Biden was running those ads the moment J.D. Vance was announced that Joe Biden continues the rhetoric that he says we all need to tamp down while denying he ever engages in that rhetoric.
