'The situation is fluid regarding how these stop Trump campaigns will move forward.'

Donald Trump is known as an in-your-face, no-holds-barred kind of businessman. He has created several controversies over a wide range of topics from misogyny to racism, but still people vote for him. Rather than keeping quiet, several groups and Super PACS have raised over $63 million to fight against the business tycoon's Republican Presidential nomination.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - According to ABC News analysis of CMAG, Anti-Trump advertisement funding has increased 900 percent in an attempt to spread warnings against the Republican's stances.

Several Trump critics have emerged recently, but what really makes a difference is the advertising.

An unnamed source close to anti-Trump efforts told ABC: "The situation is fluid regarding how these stop Trump campaigns will move forward. Decisions will be made over the coming days as to the best use of resources: continue a public advertising campaign to further expose Trump's record and slow his primary momentum or work on a delegate strategy at the GOP convention."

After winning Florida, Trump stated: "Nobody has ever, ever in the history of politics received the kind of negative advertising that I have. By the way, mostly false, I wouldn't say 100 percent, but about 90 percent. Mostly false, vicious, horrible."

Currently, super PACs have made the largest difference in anti-Trump advertising. Doug Sachtleben, a spokesman for anti-Trump group Club for Growth Action, explained: "The Club and its super PAC are evaluating the other remaining states and we plan to continue efforts. 


We believe it's entirely possible to keep Trump under 1,237 [delegates] and to see Cruz amass a significant chunk of delegates."

Despite the influx of anti-Trump ads, Donald Trump refuses to let it get to him. He believes he will continue to win over the popular vote and will become the next Republican Presidential nominee.

"And you explain it to me because I can't," Trump added. "My numbers went up. I don't understand it. Nobody understands it."
