(CNN) The Trump campaign returned to the TV airwaves this week after slowing down and briefly cutting advertising over the last couple of weeks, during the Democratic and Republican national conventions. But overall, the Trump campaign was outspent by Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden 's campaign by more than $20 million during the last two weeks of August. Over the course of September, the Trump campaign has about $48.7 million total in TV airtime booked. With its new reservations this week, the Trump campaign launched a national security-focused spot, telling voters that Trump has "rebuilt our military, repaired a broken VA, and eliminated Soleimani, al Baghdadi, ISIS." It also makes no mention of coronavirus, as the Trump campaign continues to avoid mentioning the pandemic in advertising content.
