'I'm spending all my money to get rid of Trump': Michael Bloomberg
Reuters ^ | 1-11-2020 | Jason Lange

Posted on 01/12/2020 9:03:08 AM PST by tcrlaf

- U.S. presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg told Reuters he is ready to spend much of his vast fortune to oust Republican President Donald Trump from the White House in 2020, rejecting criticism from rivals for the Democratic nomination that the billionaire is trying to buy the U.S. Ranked by Forbes as the eighth-richest American, Bloomberg has flooded U.S. airwaves and social media feeds with messages that he stands the best chance to beat Trump, spending more on campaign ads since he launched his campaign in November than his main Democratic rivals have over the last year.

“Number one priority is to get rid of Donald Trump. I’m spending all my money to get rid of Trump,” Bloomberg told Reuters aboard his campaign bus on Saturday, during a nearly 300-mile (483-km) drive across Texas, one of the 14 states that will vote on Super Tuesday on March 3.

“Do you want me to spend more or less? End of story.

Yep. Why would this “former Republican” hate trump so much?

It’s one thing he wants to win for himself but this latest shows the emperor has no clothes and its not about him at all

there’s a reason why he want Trump out and has nothing to do with politics

if every ad he runs attacks Trump and not the other Democrats running then he’s helping the eventual winner. More so than if he donated to them.

very true

Yeah, he’s a “former Republican” like John Lindsey was a “former Republican”.

Already getting tired of his overkill of commercials. Hopefully others will as well.

Don’t take this lightly, folks...

I agree, never underestimate the power of the ignorant and not very bright portion of the public. Amongst others also lacking common sense.

It shows that they truly believe Trump is more dangerous to them than anything else combined. Bloomberg could buy SWHC just to put them out of business.

He’d be much better off spending his money to get rid of the Iranian regime. He’d be remembered forever.

Sure, money does help, but it isn’t the only factor

A 5ft tall, control freak, billionaire, with bad ideas isn’t exactly a winning platform

Not saying he can’t be a challenge, of course, anyone who wins the nom is a challenge to Trump, the media alone is going to swoon all over whomever that person is anyways.

But Gloomy Bloomy isn’t connecting, he doesn’t have his finger on the pulse of the average American. His commercials are way out of touch, in fact, they would have made sense 4 or 8 years ago. But today, the economy isn’t in the toilet and more Americans are benefiting then ever before.

Sorry Gloomy, your money isn’t going to buy you the presidency.

‘I’m spending all my money to get rid of Trump’

A slight variation on Joe Biden’s theme that he was spending a billion dollars of the taxpayers money to get his crackhead son a job.

I’m spending all my money

That’s like a Leftist promising to leave the country if Donald Trump is elected.

The new method of income redistribution by the Dems. Spend billions around the country, raising all boats. Democrat billionaires like him and Strayman can make American green with the color of greenbacks.
