All of this is pretty alarming, if true.

There has been some reporting of this. The Trump campaign have been making huge digital media buys for a few months, ramping up significantly as of late, for obvious reasons. And a few data analysis watchdogs have said they have new data mining and analytics teams helping them to segment and target (at least one with ties to the now defunct Cambridge Analytica, and another most probably backed by Putin).

Here are a few articles regarding their recent plays and programmes — the MIT writeup about the Trump campaign app is especially interesting:

Trump Campaign Makes Huge Digital Ad Buy During Democratic Convention (Published 2020)

The Trump campaign is trying to make sure that Mr. Trump’s message will be almost impossible to miss even during the Democrats’ biggest week.

Trump’s 2020 campaign is reportedly using former Cambridge Analytica employees to target voters

Data analysis company Data Propria, led by a former Cambridge Analytica strategist, is reportedly working on President Donald Trump’s 2020 re-election campaign.

Here’s everything Trump and his 2020 rivals know about you

The fight for your phone is “where the game is going to be played.”

The Trump 2020 app is a voter surveillance tool of extraordinary power

Both presidential campaigns use apps to capture data, but Trump's asks to scoop up your identity, your location, and control of your phone's Bluetooth function.

And this was just a small sample of reporting on the Trump campaign’s current data mining/analytics activities.

We need to remember that 2016 was undertaken from the outside, with generally only private assets and foreign government aid (and some in-office Republican assistance toward the end of the campaign). The Trump campaign now not only has these private data mining resources — and continued foreign government assistance — but also access to the vast US government domestic surveillance apparatus. And general control on the Census, which based on the current incomplete state (much of it due to Trump camp intervention, interference, and influence), will have huge ramifications for governance in the coming decade(s).

Their powers have been increased by several magnitudes for 2020 and potentially beyond.

This is where allowing an autocratic, desperate, compromised grifter to take office in the first place leads.
 
He's turning into a Shit Saddam.

He's got his shit versions of Uday and Qusay in the Whitehouse with him.

His mini me and incesteous daughter Ivanka learning from him (Ivanka 2028 anyone?).

The only way he's going to go is if the people follow the lead from Iraq and take him out themselves.

See above for my original post that contained this and other write ups about the Trump camp’s data mining/analytics operations — all of them are informative and frightening, but they are just the tip of the iceberg.
