How Trump's Facebook Ads Strategy Differs From Dem Candidates
you normally focus more on Democratic,campaigns you guys actually help some,Democrats with their campaigns but here,you're focusing on a Republican,President Trump what did you find in,this research yeah I mean our actual,apparatus helps Democratic campaign but,when we research we want to research all,campaigns and understand what's going on,and what we found in looking at the,Facebook and Google ad archives is that,Trump's digital operation is just much,more sophisticated and much more,integrated than any Democrat other than,than Michael Bloomberg and his operation,has really just ramped up in the last,few months so we found that as you said,he's actually run 58 thousand more,variations of ads which is sort of a,proxy for how committed you are to a/b,testing message testing and hence your,sort of digital sophistication and he is,just steamrolling all Democrats other,than Bloomberg on that well I was just,gonna ask what is the real benefit of,being able to test all of these,different messages I mean I know how,Facebook's targeted ad business works,you you really can tailor a message to a,specific group is it just that or is,there something else that that's really,an advantage here by having that volume,of that yeah it's not just about,targeting it's actually about learning,and understanding what works and what,doesn't and being able to use that not,only in your ads but feed it into other,parts of your campaign and operation,whether that's events or mail or TV or,slogans or when your door-knocking and,that is actually one of the things that,he benefits from he we actually looked,at what candidates are asking for in,their ads Bernie and Pete are asking for,money,pretty much 60 percent of the time Trump,asked for money only about 25 percent of,the time the rest of the time he's,collecting information from voters and,who they are and what they like and he's,using it to take the conversation off of,Facebook off of Google and have a,different kind of conversation where he,knows a lot more about them maybe last,for money later on but he's really has,sophisticated voter data collection,operation going on and because his,digital is more sophisticated it makes,his whole campaign better Rebecca,want to bring you in here I mean it,feels like as the incumbent president,Trump sort of gets to play on a,different field than a lot of the,Democrats when it comes to his digital,campaign how do you think the fact that,he is now seeking re-election versus,kind of competing with a bunch of others,in a primary how does that change the,game for him well there at least a,couple of ways that this makes a,difference when you compare his campaign,to the Democrats I mean first of all,he's been building a digital campaign,and relationships with the various,platforms for digital advertising since,2015,so he simply has the long-term advantage,of having learned how this space,actually works the the Democratic,challengers are also in the middle of a,much bigger fight amongst themselves at,the moment right a battle to try and,figure out who's going to gain the,actual resources and so they have to,really be focused on fundraising much,more than the Trump campaign does and,that constitutes another major major,advantage for it for the Trump campaign,you know when I think about some of the,ads that President Trump has ran I can't,help but remember that ad attacking Joe,Biden a few months ago that some said,was factually inaccurate do you feel,that he's really pushing the envelope,here in terms of what is allowed on,these platforms is he doing that more,than others or is this just kind of the,state of play for politics these days I,think we're seeing that this is moving,much more towards the normal towards the,state of play but in many ways the Trump,campaign was first mover in this area,the Trump campaign has shown a,willingness fairly early on to push,boundaries to to break norms that were,that were built over decades in,traditional campaign practices on,television and radio and so on the,digital space really is relatively new,overall even though right we've been,talking about this,since 2008 certainly still candidates,are figuring out what works in this,space and they've based their,assumptions broadly on what they knew,from decades past but the Trump campaign,as early as 2015 showed its willingness,to push these boundaries to break norms,and so now we're starting to see other,candidates follow suit a real,willingness to push these boundaries as,well but but Trump has certainly been,first actor in this area yeah Jessica my,colleague Josh Brustein wrote about some,of this data yesterday or actually this,morning I should say and part of what,came out was that you know Mike,Bloomberg and president Trump are both,kind of advertising in the way that,often you would see from a big company,not necessarily a politician can you,talk us through a little bit about how,those two in particular are tailoring,their messages and how it might be,different from other candidates yeah I,think that you know I don't think it's a,coincidence that Bloomberg and Trump,both come from the commercial world and,they're the two doing it differently and,Rebecca's right about the less pressure,on Trump to fundraise than the,Democratic candidates but that's only,part of the explanation there is a,problem in the Democratic Party with,using digital for anything other than an,ATM and Trump and Bloomberg are sort of,unencumbered by the this is how we do it,in politics view point and so they've,actually taken on the way that the,tactics used in the commercial world,so nothing Trump nor Bloomberg is doing,are crazy or something that the,commercial world isn't using it's just,that it's being a skewed by most non,Trump non Bloomberg campaigns and the,other thing I would add is that there's,nothing happening down ballot that is,more sophisticated than the presidential,campaigns typically so 2020 is not just,a presidential year of course that is,incredibly important but on the line in,2020 as the Senate is redistricting,which,state legislators will decide and we,have to be able to ring the alarm bell,and say we've got to change something if,we want to win
