Unless they're lying to themselves, or they've been bamboozled through a hack or someone lying internally (remember Karl Rove), there's no way they think OH is a given. I can't figure it out, though.
Well, first:
And second, it's still a surprising "joke", because it's inhumane and because it plays against his party line. And it's stupid!

If they are fucked in NC they are fucked everywhere. There is pretty much no reasonable path where they can win if they lose Virginia and North Carolina.

Actually they are part of the 33k deleted.
FBI was able to recover 15k emails out of those 33k. FBI gave those 15k back to State, and State is being asked to roll them out
These emails are already reviewed by James Comey and there's nothing in there for bedwetting, just so bedwetters are aware.

Yep. If we ever get ahold of Trump's current tax returns, I bet he's in massive amounts of debt, and he's using the campaign to pay a bunch of it off. The biggest problem the GOP is facing in its primary process (specifically) is that half the stage is blatantly shilling their brand instead of actually running for office. And the people who are running for office can't just ignore the con artists.
Saying again, the swing-state ad money they're pulling is probably either for areas they have on lock or areas that are a lost cause.
That's the only thing that makes sense aside from the campaign being short on cash. I can't imagine that they would actually give up on Florida and North Carolina but this has been a shocking election in a number of ways.

Every single contested statewide race here has Republicans getting outspent by laughable margins. It's almost comical.
Great read from the local paper about why the GOP through HB2 was an easy win and how horribly the whole thing has backfired.

They are still living in a 2004 world where you can win off the back off religious conservatives and rural voters. Total amateur hour.

Maybe they're putting all their money into California and New York, Trump did say he would win those states
Pulling money from Florida proves they've given up. Florida is EVERYTHING for him. And at a time like now, where he has the opportunity to be politically exploitative of the state. A state where the governor is on his side. Sure, it'd come off as super opportunistic and gross, but the gameplan is right there for him.
If he doesn't want to do a last second push for Florida, he doesn't really want to win. Flat out.

My not at all kidding theory is that they are shifting money from ads to things like increased rent at Trump Towers, consulting from family friendly firms, etc that help line Donnie's pockets since the game is nearly up.

Agreed. Trump is a con-man, but the GOP can't even come out and say this since that would be admitting that most of the voted for and supported a con man.

Just for giggles. Losing NC means it's over. Will make every other swing state win meaningless
Understanding he has no chance anymore, maybe?
Dude is out of his league. So is his entire bootleg campaign, frankly.

lord have mercy why oh why would you move out money from jacksonville in a base election if you're a republican. WHY WUT WHY.
Tallahassee? Communist unionized state workers. Ganesville? Communist gators, even worse. Jacksonville though? Have to some of the most Trump-friendly suburbs by demographic across the entire state. He should be running 'hey look I'm not crazy, vote GOP white people' ads nonstop there.

Are these ad buys directly from the Trump campaign or the RNC?
Former makes no sense, latter makes total sense.

These are Trump campaign buys, but as Fragamemnon notes, it wouldn't make sense either way. Rubio isn't so far ahead in FL that the RNC can call it a win. If Trump really does stop pushing in heavy GOP areas that could make the senate race slightly closer.
I just hope the Johnson vote dies so Hillary gets over 50% of the vote, Please!

Virginia transforming from the south to the northeast in political terms is kind of interesting... I wonder if political people will start referring to Virginia as a non-southern state like they do with Maryland.
Basically just musing if a change in political behavior can cause a change in perceived geography.

I think you will start to see VA and NC group less in the "former confederate state' bucket and the 'mid-atlantic' pile.There are a lot of benefits to the states in breaking away-far, far, away-from their shared history in the deep south.

It's weird because I never personally considered Virginia or Maryland "southern" states. But the way American regions are divided is definitely weird.
Both geographically and ideologically, I always considered the Southern Line to be North Carolina.
But I've also been saying Nevada wrong my whole life, so who cares what I think.
Last second advertising is going to be more expensive. I'm betting they are short cash and having to move shit around.
No way do not you last second pull advertising in three must win states.
Probably light on cash and assuming they need to wait till after the debate fuck up subsides to get traction.

The GOP should get this SEC to expand there like they did to turn Missouri Red.
