Trump has spent around $11M on ads just on Facebook. If you go into the ad details you'll see how he targets different genders, age groups according to states: https://www.facebook.com/ads/library/?active_status=all&ad_t...

I think it's even more interesting to see the Democrat side:

  * O'Rourke $8.4M
  * Harris $1.6M
  * Warren $1.3M
  * Booker $800K
  * Sanders $685K
  * Klobuchar $365K
  * Yang $120K
  * Buttigieg $10.5K

Why is everybody else spending so much less than O'Rourke? Does his campaign actually have that much more money compared to the other campaigns?

O'Rourke just finished a huge campaign for the Senate in November, I assume it's that and not his just-launched presidential bid.

(Disclaimer - I find the site hard to use and maybe it's obvious to someone else that it's not correct)
