Donald Trump's campaign staff not creating or running a single campaign ad.
He may not have the money. Trump's career has been built on talking up his wealth and menacing anybody who dares to suggest he might not be as rich as he's making out. That works well for getting headlines, but not so well when you're passing around the hat for donations, and a good chunk of the Republican system has decided to sit this one out so his funding from that side will be limited. A good chunk of what funding he does get has been spent on buying stuff from various Trump companies...
I'm sure we'll see a bit more from him after the conventions - if he has any kind of advisers they'll probably be telling him to leave the spotlight on Democrat divisions as long as possible - but Hillary will be massively outspending him unless he's willing to kick in a lot of his own money, and I'm not sure that will happen.
