New York billionaire Michael Bloomberg, who is deciding whether to launch a Democratic presidential bid, is pouring $100 million into an online advertising campaign attacking President Trump. The campaign, which targets voters in four general election battleground states - Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin - begins running on Friday, according to Bloomberg spokesman Jason Schechter. The former New York City mayor has already filed paperwork in at least two states to appear on presidential primary ballots.

We are already bombarded with anti-Trump messages 24/7 on television, on news sites, on radio news shows, on search engines like google and bing. We are over-saturated with the biased, disinformation campaign that has been going on since Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election. I am totally turned off by the cacophony, I have watched the teachers' unions pour many millions of dollars into continuous disinformation campaigns year after year. I have long since become deaf to all of it, and I can only hope and pray that most Americans have long since figured out that these blitzes of propaganda are destructive, dishonest, and offensive. Shame on Bloomberg. Shame on the DNC. Shame on the trial lawyers who are another enormous cash cow for the DNC. Shame on the teachers' unions who year after year choose adult jobs over children's' education. None of these people give a hoot about America or Americans. It is all about self-centered power grabbing.

How many books for under-privileged children could he actually help with $100 million?
Or how he could give $10,000 to 10,000 people and help many change their lives by paying off credit cards, and other bills to help them get a leg up.
Instead he wants to help advertising people, and TV and radio people, all because he doesn't like Republicans - it's not just Donald Trump folks, it's that policy is being established, and over 150 Federal judges are installed with lifetime appointments that have helped re-shape the Courts which were used by the Liberals and Progressives to shape policy that they knew they could never pass in Congress.

He may learn that such excessive, saturation advertising may be counter- productive. When I see the ads, I will be reminded that the annoying little munchkin is behind them. And I will vote for DJT - again.

Money thrown down a black hole that could actually be used to do some good. How many college scholarships could $100 million fund? Job apprenticeships? Instead it is squandered on hatred and jealousy.

Little Michael is getting busy to clean up his own dirty background. Recall Bloomberg when he gave the advice to an employee who was pregnant ' you better get rid of that or your career is over'! His 'closet' life is not so closet any longer. Well, his 'girlfriend' is well paid to cover it.

I hope he’s as successful as he was in running ads in favor of the hated Cook County soft drink tax.
