If Bloomberg can spend billions on "independent" expenditures that aren't, why should individuals be limited to donating $2800 to campaigns? Why was it a big deal for Citizens United to make a film attacking Hillary Clinton?

According to Predictit the Republicans now have an even change of keeping the Presidency. A few months ago they were 55-45 underdogs. We should not panic about Bloomberg, but our campaign finance restrictions should be lifted if he can bulldoze them.

Mr. “Big Gulp”. He’ll run your life for you - you’re too stupid to do it yourself.

He wouldn’t spend that much he would’ve lost his money years ago if he had spent his money that foolishly

Does Bloomberg really want to pour all that money down a rat hole, lots of good charities out there could use that money.

Well it’s obvious Bloomberg’s just revealed he doesn’t care if he wins or not.... as long as ‘anybody’ but Trump wins....

I love these political billionaires, and the rich Hollywood types and how they throw their wealth around to achieve political goals. They got money to burn, but do any of them care to help others? Just think how a tiny portion of their wealth can be put to a better use. If I had their money, I would see to it more of these are built. https://vetsoutreachwi.us/vets-village/

A Deep State Kight, Bloom the Midget from York, has put on his armor and mounted his steed. How many more clowns does this deep state have ?

Personally, I would LOVE to see BLOOMING IDIOT completely WASTE a BILLION BUCKS in a fruitless attempt to defeat President Trump. = That would be a BLESSING & an aid to END the DIMs as a major political party.

ANY DIMocRAT in 2020 has the same chance that I do to defeat DJT. = NONE.
(It just so happens that I know a Las Vegas oddsmaker & Carol says that ANY of the DIMs has LESS than a one in 12 chance of winning against the POTUS in 2020.)

Yours, TMN78247

No amount of money can help Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, or Bloomberg. The more he spends, the more it will hurt the Democrats.

All of Trump’s rallies are broadcast, and people have to register with his campaign. Trump is killing it on social media, and has probably the best organization for communicating and getting out the vote operation, EVER.
