Boy I’m sorry but that’s a ridiculous statement based on nothing. I think we will win but to categorize it like you do is absurd

That’s a lot of “walking around money”—as Dems call it.

So Bloomberg has now turned against the police and supports the riots?

Illegal campaign donation. Like the Atlantic hit piece.

Bloomberg may be a really wealthy individual, But when it gets right down to it, I do not think he is especially bright.

Mighty big spend in a state where Biden is supposed to be up by a gazillion points. Maybe Biden can lock down the dementia vote, which is considerable in Florida.

He is very smart in book knowledge and business. And he was a pretty good mayor of New York. He is just not good at reading the rest of the country especially the red and purple states.

Kind of like Giuliani, running NYC is a lot different than running the US.

I posted many times while he was NYC mayor that this little self-important turd was bad news. Now he’s trying to bring about his “my way or the highway” nanny status for the entire nation by promoting this senile meat puppet for the radical left to animate any way they want. Drop dead, Bloombutt! You’ve already brought about your share of suffering to NYC residents.

Yes.
Guiliani was a very good mayor of New York, but he never quite got what fly over country was all about. Just look at his disastrous presidential campaign when he did everything wrong. He thought he'd campaign for president same way he campaigned for mayor of New York.
I lived in NYC a long time so I know where Bloomberg and Guiliani were coming from. When you are in New York all the time, you tend to think the world begins and ends there.

imho, a 3 percent lead for PDJT won’t win Florida for him

there has to be at least a 10 point DNC election fraud margin already ready to roll out when it comes to the illegal D votes, the multiple D votes, the trashing of R votes, D ballot harvesting, D busing to the polls, the “counting” of the votes, etc

There used to be a limit on what amount of money any political candidate could receive from an individual, but due to Supreme Court decisions "Super-Pacs" can now be formed and candidates can receive unlimited amounts of funds from wealthy donors.

When I was a candidate for public office (County Commissioner) back in the day, there was a $2500 limit I could receive from any one donor to my campaign.

The details of all this are lengthy, but I typed in "Limits Donations Presidential Candidates" on my search engine...and all the unhappy details are there.

The upshot of my search?.....yes, successful campaigns for candidates of all parties today can be bought by zillionaires through the use of "Super-Pacs".

“Does it matter? Trump demonstrated in 2016 that he can win despite being outspent.”

Unlike 2016, 95% of his media attention is very negative, as are the Biden ads — which are outright lies. There has to be a counterattack of equal magnitude and tone this time around.

Trump was behind by over 3% RCP average throughout October in 2016 and still won.
Remember 2018 when both DeSantis and Scott were behind in the RCP averages for governor and US Senate and still won?
If anything, the Dems are massively over sampled in most fake news media polls which tend to favor Dems only for the Dems to lose come elect time.

I think he is an Uber elitist. It’s just that he lives in a New York bubble, instead of a Washington DC Bubble. I might even go so far as to say that his understanding of politics is actually sub-average.

My state senator here in northern Virgina, Jeremy McPike, owes everything to Michael Bloomberg; Bloomberg invested at least $2,000,000 in his race (the 29th VA senate district, which encompasses about 200,000 people).

McPike is a total non-entity; just a garden variety Marxist zombie. However, the Bloomberg money swamped Manassas Mayor Hal Parrish.

Sounds the same as 2016 to me.

Thanks. ( I’m still afraid of the soroznazi DNC election theft operation since it’s so large and well funded. ). We will see
