Predictit is another gambling den run out of Victorian University in New Zealand. IOW, it has zero credibility. Would be nice if you mentioned that.

It is actually a $Billion to CNN, MSMBC, CBS, etc. Just a way to funnel money into the leftist networks to continue bias coverage.

Do the math:

$1 billion divided by 63 million (Trump voters) ==
$15.87 per voter.

You could add 6 zeros to that amount & still not get me to vote for anyone except Trump.

I would NEVER vote for Bloomberg-—even if he were the only candidate.

All that money he will spend is only padding Trump’s GDP....I love it.

Bloomberg would get more votes if he bought every person in the country a Big Gulp. Not kidding.

His cash is trash...Like what’s her name, the billionaire who ran for CA governor, Meg Whitman. She couldn’t buy the governors office even though she’d spent more than anyone in state history, including a ton of her own money...Then it broke she’d hired illegals as house servants and then lied about it.

Gak~

Please spend two billion! America isn’t going to nominate the midget Nanny from New York whom won’t take a hard stand for his fellow Jews being persecuted in his own home town.

He’s spent $200 million already? And he’s got what to show for it? I think he’s just trying to bribe the party to take him seriously.

If spending money meant getting votes than Clinton would be president.

How much did Clinton spend in 2016?

Actually it’s no longer the “DemocRAT’s”; they’re now “Demiranians”

True; the way they took the side of the Iranian Mullahs and military the way they did.

I guess since they are now radicalized dems they could also be called DemaMullahs.

However; Rats fit them so perfectly...

He can spend the billion dollars on how he made NY Homeless problem 3 time worse as well as how he want to mobilize the government for nationwide gun grab!

Plenty of very rich people con themselves into thinking that all they need to do is spend the money and advertise and that will elect them. The truth is it dosen’t if they have no personality and a credible message to sell.

Steve Forbes found that out in 1996, lots of good ideas but his personality was so boring he could not make it out of New Hampshire.

Bloomberg is pretty much a kind of nerd candidate. Very boring and no personality. Will he be able to fill up an arena with 10 to 15 thousand people and be able to do 4 to 6 rally’s a day? I really don’t think so.

Bloomberg has a monopoly business where he charges something like $40,000 a machine to rent a month to get financial quotes and news. He put Quotron out of business and yet no one has come with an alternative and I guarantee you if there was a better alternative cheaper Bloomberg would have a hard time competing.
