Trump won't talk about the issue that "should sink" Clinton

Obamacare has received minimal mention in Trump’s advertising since the primary season. Based on a list of ads curated by the election information website p2016.org, the notoriously commercial-averse candidate didn’t run a single advertisement about the law from January to the GOP convention in July, only cursorily pledging to “fix our health care.” He hasn’t run one since accepting his party’s nomination, either, according to a separate comprehensive list of general election ads maintained by the New Republic. The most funded super PACs backing Trump’s candidacy, Make America Number 1 and Great America PAC, don’t have an Obamacare spot on their YouTube pages. (The former, which supported Ted Cruz’s campaign during the primary, is really an anti-Hillary Clinton apparatus, billed at this point as “Defeat Crooked Hillary,” a “special project” of the super PAC.)

The closest Trump’s team has come to promoting an Obamacare-themed video was a debate clip entitled “Obamacare Fail” it uploaded a week ago. It has a little more than 78,000 views as of this writing.

The two-minute video could be categorized as “rare footage”. It comprises most of Trump’s discussion of the law during the two presidential debates thus far. The matter wasn’t even broached during the first forum three weeks ago.
