I am not a Bloomberg fan but it was $935 million not $2 billion. Seems like there is never a number put out by Trump or a Trumper that is not exaggerated by a large amount. Do they not get that lowers their credibility?

But its true he wasted a lot of money I will give you that. But the dude has the money and he is old. So its his business. As far as whether spending on Biden has a better ROI than on his own campaign we will see.

Bloomberg LOVES pumping billions of dollars into the economy. This will undoubtedly lower unemployment, and raise GDP all benefiting Trump. How Ironic. Thank's Bloomy.

Bloomberg has obviously decided getting the current occupant out of the White House is his preferred use of HIS money. I am sure he’ll take your opinion into very close consideration, though.

Get a life: we all know what Trump said about McCain. That is old news for heavens sake. As for fallen warriors it has been pretty well documented the story was made up or partly made up. As for the COVID it may not have been handled 100% correctly but, if you pay any attention you would remember Biden also told us it was over done and we shouldn't take this seriously. I think this was the feeling many or us had. Mike is no one to talk in my opinion.

Pretty much agree. There was a time when door knocking was the way to go, but not so much anymore. The over the top spending on TV ads, to me is a total waste of money. Maybe a few ok, but this has gotten so out of hand I can't believe it. If Mike is really spending that kind of money he needs to see a shrink

Oh how true: I really think he is doing this to get attention and not for any other reason: I doubt he really cares who wins.

Easy: four who were there at the time said he did not make the comment. As for what he has said about McCain that is something we all have known for years; no love lost between them. I do think comments he has made about McCain are uncalled for and I am no lover of McCain. I know personally a few things he did did that were terrible in my view; All I will say and let it go: remember the keating 5?
