Billionaire Bumblers: Bloomberg, Steyer Spent at Least $1,063,718,074 Trying to Oust Trump

Liberal billionaires Michael Bloomberg and Tom Steyer spent over $1 billion in their attempt to oust President Donald Trump from office, an effort that began even before their 2020 presidential campaigns. Adding Steyer’s 2017-2018 spending ($123 million) to both billionaires' current estimated campaign spending totals, a whopping $1,063,718,074 was spent in an attempt to oust Trump. To put this into perspective, that’s just less than approximately $600 million shy of Steyer’s entire net worth estimated at $1.6 billion.

They proved quite well that Donald Trump did not buy his presidency.

He effectively sold his product, himself.

They could have built a world class children’s cancer hospital and be forever memorialized for their act of philanthropy, but no, they sought raw political power, and lost.

Could have helped a lot of poor people. Stock food banks. Build low income housing. Shelters.

Hopefully, Tom Steyer, owes a lot of money to a lot of people for his campaign of hate versus President Trump.

Then, those people as they collect what is due to them, drive Steyer into bankruptcy!

Steyer was ridiculous.
Not even worth Trump assigning a knickname.

What's not to like about that?

Now they will have $1.06 billion less to spend on other Liberal Fascist candidates down ballot.

I am no “hate the rich” person, this is something to really despise, though, about people with that much money, that blow it on NOTHING that is a benefit to society.

Nothing but a bunch of forgettable obnoxious ads.

Why do they hate him so much? Deep state I get it, but these are businessmen. Surely it isn’t personalities? Or do they hate the US so much. They surely don’t think that Trump is between them are ruling the world because the leftist deplorables made it clear that these two are not going to run anything.

Look, Trump understood a good public image WAY better than Bloomberg or Steyer. It's not a coincidence he's a close friend of WWE's Vince McMahon and ran the successful TV show The Apprentice for many years. Trump used that experience to polish a public image way better than any American politician, that's to be sure.

Yep, they could give it to public school teachers who have to eat dog food because they spend all their own money buying student supplies because the overtaxed districts spend all their money on teacher benefits and not the classroom.

You can’t buy the White House—you must earn it the old fashioned way—Trump worked hard for it.

Indeed .. that’s why I’m not exactly gloating over Bloomberg and Steyer failing so miserably.
