Liberal billionaire and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg may have just one-upped fellow liberal billionaire Tom Steyer in anti-Trump spending by being willing to burn through an unheard-of amount of money to defeat President Donald Trump. The New York Times reported Jan. 11 that Bloomberg “did not rule out spending a billion dollars of his own money on the 2020 presidential race, even if he does not win the Democratic nomination” [emphasis added]. The Times noted that Bloomberg would mobilize his “well-financed political operation” to help rivals Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), “despite their sharp policy differences.”

Don't hold your breath waiting for the Democrat/Media Complex to decry the role of Big Money in politics. When a Steyer or a Bloomberg wants to spend billions to attack conservatives, that's just fine with them.
Now if a conservative billionaire wanted to spend a billion on political attack ads, well, that's a horse of a different color.

From this Gunpowder 9/2018 article: https://tinyurl.com/yx2lqpq9
“Mr. Bloomberg, 76 … has already aligned himself with Democrats in the midterm elections, approving a plan to spend $80 million to flip control of the House of Representatives,” The Times continues. “A political group he controls will soon begin spending heavily in three Republican-held districts in Southern California, attacking conservative candidates for their stances on abortion, guns, and the environment.”
Bloomberg’s money is behind The Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund, which, The Washington Post reports, “is spending millions to support candidates in four states, underscoring the extent to which gun control is shaping up to be an issue in the November midterm election.”

True insanity has no limits. The Trump Derangement Syndrome has removed any shred of common sense and perception of reality. Fools and their money soon part.

To add to the reply @ #5 - Bloomberg was successful in flipping the House in 2018. He dislikes President Trump. He is serious about beating him one way or another in 2020. We must mobilize our family and friends to vote for President Trump in November. This primary season we have to vote for candidates that will support our President in his desire to rid the DC swamp of the uniparty.

A fool and his money are soon parted. In Bloomberg's case, it might take a little longer.

All the money in the world will not turn Little Mike into an attractive candidate. I'm sure whoever is the nominee won't turn down Mikey's money, but they will waste it, just like Hillary did.

His vanity commercials are a dud because he is a dud. A little wizened guy with a charisma bypass. And showing serious signs about being delusional, careless with money. He and Steyer should go to a place like Afghanistan, pay a ton for huge amounts of territory, buy themselves fantabulous jeweled crowns and rings to be kissed, and name themselves monarchs… That should satisfy their outsized pocketbooks, ambitions, and vanities...

Sorry to post again, but Mike's money didn't do anything to help the soft drink tax in Cook County, Illinois survive. He spent a mint on fancy commercials telling black folk they needed to get healthy. The result: repeal.

A lot of people are still hurting badly after fires, floods, tornados right here in our own country...why doesn’t this asshat try to help THEM? With all his filthy lucre? Instead of pissing it away?
Because he’s a typical jackass hypocrite doing what typical jackass lefties always do for people who need help—-NOTHING!

We should all go buy Big Gulps and go to his rallies.
Is it OK for him to spend $1,000,000,000 and LOSE? He thinks he can win? His arrogance is leaking.

One actual prosecution of a high ranking rat, like Biden, Kerry, Comey, etc. will nullify any amount of bloomers money or soros backdoor funding. Flipping the Deep State rock to reveal the extent of corruption, bribery and blackmail that the uniparty, but especially the rats and their media have done for the last 50 years is vital for this country to have any chance of a future. It is also a practical H bomb to reverse the lies of the left and diminish the rat votes in every election.

Bloomberg will spend a billion dollars, and show everyone there is no difference between him, and the rest of the Democratic field. Amazing. A fool and his money are soon parted.

That kind of money could be a big help to organizations like The Salvation Army, Shriner's Hospital, St. Jude Children’s Hospital, among a few other honest organizations.

He's signaling that he's wealthier than President Trump, because he knows most people will say that we already have a wealthy businessman, so why trade for another one most famous for taking away people's Big Gulps. Bloomberg, bye!
