Promises made, promises — not kept? Failed 2020 Democratic presidential primary candidate Michael Bloomberg is now backtracking on his promise to use his multimillion-dollar campaign to support the presumptive Democratic nominee, according to NBC News’ Maura Barrett. Barrett stated in a tweet that “@MikeBloomberg is scrapping his plan to fund an independent expenditure campaign to support the Democratic nominee (he's endorsed @JoeBiden).” Bloomberg had promised to spend “$2 billion on either his own campaign or to help finance a Democratic nominee to unseat President Trump in the 2020 general election,” according to Fox Business Jan. 17.

Maybe he decided having Trump around to help him recoup the billions he just lost isn’t such a bad idea.

Since Bloomberg already spent $500 million on himself, there was no doubt that he would have spent more than $1 billion if he was the democrat nominee for president. But $2 billion for Joe Biden is too much.

Hmmm. You seem to be asking for a lot of clicks in return for very few words. And, I don’t seem to see your name anywhere on any donor lists.

A sense quite a disconnect here.

Bloomberg might not be the smartest person, but he is still smart enough to realize supporting Biden would be a waste of money.

Imagine the mess if Biden were to handle the coronavirus problem. Biden even confuses his wife with his sister.

Yes, Bloomberg/Romney or Sanders/Bloomberg in a well financed third party run.
