WaPo's Jennifer Rubin Says Bloomberg Could Help Dems by Spending $50,000,000 on Impeachment Ads
NewsBusters ^ | 1/23/2020 | Joseph Vazquez

The Washington Post’s “conservative blogger” Jennifer Rubin is at it again. This time she’s saying that liberal billionaire Michael Bloomberg could help Democrats by using his vast wealth to support impeaching President Donald Trump.The self-described “conservative blogger” wrote a fairly liberal op-ed Jan. 20 headlined, “Here’s how Bloomberg could help himself, Democrats and America.” The way to “help,” wrote Rubin, was for Bloomberg to: “Spend $50 million or so in the next week on impeachment ads” [emphasis added]. Strange, given that she wrote in January, 2019 (roughly one year ago), that such spending on impeachment ads was “financial wastefulness.”

“This farce just keeps getting bigger and bigger!”

They have no choice.

If the public realizes this was a coup attempt to protect Democrat corruption, then the media and the Democrats are finished.

She looks angry....enough said. If she thinks Mikey could spend all that money and win this election, she’s dreaming.

Rubin posing as conservative should be prosecutable fraud.

I know Rubin pretends she’s not a liberal but we all know she is exactly that. With that in mind, I’m struck by the ease with which she tells someone what they should do with their money (and how much of it they should spend).

Now THAT is a helpful suggestion - $50,000,000 to be spent on propaganda that the impeachment was somehow beneficial to anybody?

Time, treasure, and vast political capital have all just been drizzled away, like urinating into the wind.

Go for it!

By the tme the ads get out of production onto the airwaves, the Presidents defenders will be done making their case, and Senate will be voting him NOT GUILTY.

The only good news is that each time I see one of those ads, I realize Bloomberg has thrown even more money away.

It’s really comical to see the Democrats begging for elections (at least the election of public opinion) to be bought, even as they decry the very existence of “billionaires”. And even more comical that they believe that spending more is all it takes. But this has always been the Dem’s solution: “Just spend more!”

I’m surprised Bloomberg hasn’t bribe the RINO’s with millions of dollars to vote guilty, I’m sure many would take him up on it.

I was ‘complaining’ the other day about Judge Judy giving testimonials for BoomBURGH during HER show.
They were run in ad time.

I think she stopped...probably got reminded she stood to lose 50% of audience for ‘taking a stand’.

Seems to have been replaced with BoomBURGH a few times during show.

He starts off saying ‘I am going to beat Trump’ and a standing ovation (sounds like maybe 20 people) start applauding.

His entrance is sure a boom to some Dan Draper type...
