Trump bets on Instagram to help win over millennial support

Donald Trump has a problem with millennials and he knows it. With polls showing him severely behind Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton in the general election, the presumptive Republican nominee has decided to take his fight directly to millennials on Instagram.

The billionaire released his first attack ad on Clinton, Tuesday. In the video he criticized Clinton’s response to the Benghazi attacks back in 2012 where she blamed everything on a filmmaker’s anti-Islamic movie.

Trump shared the video all over social media, but has increasingly relied on Instagram to unveil attack ads against his opponents because the picture and video sharing site has the demographics that the billionaire needs to win over.

According to Pew Research, a majority of Instagram users are millennials, and it also has more females and more racial diversity than other social media sites.

The presumptive Republican nominee’s first attack against the Clintons back in January equated Bill Clinton with Bill Cosby and reminded viewers about the sexual misconducts and abuses of the former president.
