Billionaire Mike Bloomberg spending $31.5 million in one week to show this ad nationwide
American Thinker ^ | 11/25/2019 | Thomas Lifson

We now have a preview of the way Michael Bloomberg plans to buy the Democrats' nomination and the presidency.  A big part of his massive spending program will be focused on trashing President Donald Trump while touting himself as a self-made man.  The budget for this ad alone is at a saturation level in targeted markets.

Advertising Analytics confirmed with The Hill on Saturday that Bloomberg's multimillion-dollar ad campaign would air in 98 local markets and on some national cable channels in the most expensive ad purchase from any candidate in one week of political advertising. The former mayor's ad filmed by Kantar/CMAG is expected to run through the holiday weekend until Dec. 2.

CMAG told ABC News that the candidate is spending at least $37 million in ad buys in states such as California, New York, Florida, Texas and Illinois, including $29.3 million in local broadcasts.

There is some danger of overkill if Bloomberg commercials become ubiquitous.  People could become angry or bored with him.

The ad tries to take credit for New York City's recovery from 9/11, when his predecessor, Mayor Giuliani, a close Trump aide, is solidly identified by the national public as the man who spurred that recovery.  There is danger for Bloomberg in that sort of claim.

The ad also features pictures of Bloomberg with most of the identity groups to which Democrats pander.

If you have new strict and even draconian Fascist gun control laws in your state it’s because of this mother Fer.

My die hard Dem neighbor is convinced that Bloomers is only in the race to help Trump. He will never vote for him. I suspect he is not alone.

So the rich bastard wants to be president. His ego is bigger than his intelligence if he really thinks he is presidential material. He’ll say and do anything to get elected. I’m wondering what he is going to do to get m*slim support. Will he start trashing Jews?

Since your Neighbor is a Rat and the Rats support Open Borders, have you offered to help him take all the Exterior Doors on his House off their Hinges, tear down the Fences surrounding his Property and paint a “Bienvenidos, Mi Casa es su Casa Sign to put on his front lawn yet?

If he owns Guns, you better call the Authorities using those new fangled Red Flag Laws. Being a Rat, he must be Mentally Unstable.

It used to be a saying that the taller presidential candidate wins the election. Washington,Lincoln,Trump and so on.

But didn’t one in the past 20 years not win? Was it re-election of GHW Bush vs. Clinton? Not sure.

Any fellow political junkies know?

I have a firm belief Bloomberg comes up too short to win even the nomination. Booster step stools not allowed.

He’s a real mess. Gun owner, hates taxes and doesn’t want illegals in our hood but wants open borders and the rich to pay more. I find it works well to just let him vent, humorous as hell.

Bloomberg once said
“If women wanted to be appreciated for their brains, they’d go to the library instead of to Bloomingdale’s.”

Sure Winner with the women’s vote.

So he’s campaigning on his reputation in NY? So if we want more of what NY is like, vote for Bloomie.

That and the rest of his ego-mercial should convince 3 or 4 hardcore liberals who were on the fence...

Good add but Trump has already done it. Except for spending money on climate hoax.

Bring it on, Mike! Spread that cash around on a doomed campaign.

How I would love to see a Trump vs. Bloomberg fight.

We all know who would win.

Bloomie is also spending money to grab your guns.

SEE HERE:

FOCUS ON THESE TWO ITEMS IN HIS WEBSITE:

* I took on Trump on gun violence – and won stronger gun laws in states across the country.

* I took on Trump the climate change denier – and have led an effort that has closed more than half the nation’s dirty coal plants.

Cruz tried that, and lost.

Hillary tried that, and lost.

Voters are more interested in what the candidates promise to do than in who the candidates are trashing.

So far, it seems, that all the Dems have is promises of freebies and Trump hate.

Isn’t there a Bible saying about Bloomberg “And they shall beat their plastic straws into LGBTQ signs and nation will not lift up sodas to drink them and neither shall they learn to eat salt, have firearms or vote Republican any more.”

Apologies to Isaiah and to all.

There was a New Yorker cartoon of two guys in the desert with one saying “You know, somebody actually could do a lot of damage with one of these ploughshares.”
