Is this a sign of how The Don will conquer our spending issues as President? It might be!
I've read a few articles from this writer over the past few months and it's interesting how his tone has been changing. (The Washington Post is on the same political scale as Huff, BTW.)

Of the major candidates, Trump spent the least. Sure, it's true that some of Trump's low spending has to do with the fact that, unlike anyone else on that chart, he is almost entirely self-funding his campaign. Without the need to hold fundraisers (or employ fundraising consultants) you can keep costs down.
But, even with that caveat, the fact that Trump has spent so little to get SO much is remarkable. He is in first place in every single national and key-early-state poll I have seen and he continues to dominate the conversation about the race. Not only is he dominating the conversation about the race, but he has also started to dictate the terms. Twenty-four hours after Trump floated the idea of skipping the next debate, sponsored by CNBC ? because, among other things, it was too long ? CNBC announced that the debate would run only two hours.
