True, but Bloomberg has an unprecedented largesse.
Lifson goes on to point out that in order to equal the proportion he “contributed” to various entities while NYC mayor, Bloomberg as presidential candidate, “would have to spend nationally...a “mere” $10.2 billion, roughly a sixth of his fortune. So far, he’s only mentioned $2 billion, but that is spending on his campaign. But he can spend $12 billion easily, and still be worth nearly $50 billion.”
It's still not as big as the pool of public/tax money.
Democracy runs on bribery. The key to winning is to appeal to the most base aspect of human nature. Selfishness.
Bloomberg has a history of racist remarks and policies that would make a Klansman blush. He has treated women like trash, his past comments were far, far beyond anything attributed to Trump. Now it turns out he has trashed farmers and factory workers - as anyone knows, you can grow a crop by digging a hole with a shovel and throwing some seeds and water in it. Hopefully, he and Madame Clinton cannot buy the election but I suspect they may; people are too easily bribed.
Who is going to object?
Not the fake media! They live for windfall gobs of cash every election cycle to run countless election ads.
The question remains, what is his platform and why does he want to eject the Man who has improved everyone’s life?
He is spending BILLIONS, and I for one see that money put to better use instead of over saturation of social media, TV,and radio waves
