Mike Bloomberg's $1 BILLION disaster: NY mayor's campaign crashes - with NO delegates from Virginia and only one win in American Samoa
Daily Mail ^ | March 4, 2020 | Geoff Earle

President Trump ridiculed him on Twitter. 'The biggest loser tonight, by far, is Mini Mike Bloomberg. His “political” consultants took him for a ride. $700 million washed down the drain, and he got nothing for it but the nickname Mini Mike, and the complete destruction of his reputation. Way to go Mike!'

Bloomberg's staff departed on two coach buses. Left behind were hundreds of pages of blank volunteer forms containing get-out-the-vote efforts in upcoming states.
.

.
'Enthusiasm they don't lack,' he said of supporters who cheered him in a convention center, having snapped up free wine, beer, and campaign merchandise on the way into the building.

Talk about easy money when you can get it. Being a Yes man political consultant to Doomberg is a good paying gig!

If Mike wanted a vanity project, think how far $1B would have gone in helping homeless people in New York. $1B would run a sizable shelter with some medical assistance and a trade school for a few years.

TV stations, printers got some ad
money at least. Heard his “victory”
speech.He said if nominated he would
go on to win several states that
went to Trump last time including
the state of “Pittsburgh”. He pledged
as President there would be no more
Oval Office tweeting.

He referred to Trump making fun
of his short stature and said,
“Around here, we measure height
from the neck up”.

Nice thought, but that isn't how it works in NYC or with the liberal establishment.

The liberals helping Mike develop this project in NYC would have siphoned off most Mike's billion (directly or indirectly) into their personal accounts leaving him with a hollowed out shelter occupied by rats.

What it says about American Samoa....is that they didn’t want a socialist, a guy suffering from Dementia, a 1/32 fake Indian, or a marginal mayor as their candidate for President.

They are fond of rich people who may have made a “charitable contribution” for a nice new recreation center?

$55 Billion left. And only because of the market crash.

His so-called "supporters" wildly cheered Bloomie in a convention center.......
the free wine and beer he supplied undoubtedly had a lot to do with the raucous cheering.

Probably had a campaign aide out of camera range signalling the audience when they needed to cheer.

So, is little girlyman Mike going to, ahem, stand up to Samoan men over gun control?
Looks like a Bruce Lee vs Kareem Abdul Jabbar moment, with Mike the white belt!

Bloom’s was the weirdest campaign we have ever witnessed——he stayed out of voting range (knowing he’d lose?).

He always seemed to be making “victory speeches.”

As a debater he was Mr Know-Nothing in the flesh.

Said not a word that might show voters he could “get it done.”

Money can’t buy love but it can buy delegates in American Samoa.
