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.”

Campaign finance laws are for Republicans only.

OK, Jennifer. Sure. Ask yourself “What’s in it for Michael Bloomberg?”

[OttawaFreeper]

I wonder if you would call someone like Dave Schultz a pacifist before you would call Jennifer Rubin a conservative?

[jmaroneps37]

Bring it; or haven’t you noticed that our resistance is stiffening and our unity is strong. Even Delecto Collins and Murkowski have gotten on board. Get lost moron.

[dowcaet]

Deep State desperation. What happened to the slam dunk case they had on Trump? Why would they need Doomberg’s $50 million. This farce just keeps getting bigger and bigger!

[MNJohnnie]

$1,000,000,000 billion in free Fake News propagandizing isn’t helping the Dems. If Mini Mike is stupid enough to waste his money like this, let him.

[rktman]

If tiny sends me a million $$$ I’ll consider changing my tune.

[Persevero]

Oh she’s just helping Bloomberg bankrupt himself.

[cuban leaf]

you could spend the money telling people the sun sets in the east.
It’s cheap to prove it doesn’t.

Sometimes money is not the answer.

[csvset]

She’s a witch! Burn her !

[OKSooner]

$50M here, $50M there, pretty soon you’re talking about some real money.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

So quick is a LIB to spend other peoples money. ... smh...

[elcid1970]

“Delecto Collins”

Love the Romney inference!

;^)

[Don Corleone]

50 extra large would certainly increase the Wapo’s bottom line.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Jennifer looked better with longer hair.

[Tallguy]

$50M? Sounds like a lot of money (and it is), but when you realize that Hillary burned thru like $1B in the 2016 election cycle — and failed — you realize that $50M will barely move the needle. Heck, Trump raises that much in donations in a couple of months. Bloomberg’s message has to resonate.

There I fixed it.

No candidate will have over 50% of the delegates at the convention. Bloomberg is there to make sure of that. His 7% is to make sure the super delegates can over ride anything the other delegates want.

[nickcarraway]

The public doesn’t vote, so what good could they possobly do? Rubin wants to see him waste his money.
