So we heard alot about the plutocracy over the last four years...........from the left.

Along comes Bloomberg! Do we all realize just how much bigger a BILLION is than a million?? He is going spend $5 BILLION OF HIS OWN MONEY to try to win this election!! (At least that much!)

It's like Citizen Kane and the Robber Barons had a wedding!!

If the GOP was doing this, what would you say?? Be honest!!

This is the most astounding phenomenon in the history of American politics. And it's pure cancer, of course....
Atleast he’s been serious about spending his own money. trump just says that then reimburses himself.

If you go on very conservative forums and read threads about dear leader, it is amazing. I was on one recently they were gushing on about Him. Seems one of the "people" noticed Trump's limo (back in the 90's I believe) sitting on the side of the road with a flat tire. The good old boy stopped and changed the tire. Dear Leader asked him what he would like for doing it. Good old boy says flowers for his wife. Trump paid off his house. They actually banned me from the forum when I started pointing out all the flaws with this silly story.

This thread is about a plutocrat spending an unimaginable amount of money to become president.
You are trying to change the subject completely (YOUR post is about more wealthy people supporting one party over another. Only a moron or someone who is arguing in bad faith would equate those two subjects).

I will not allow you to hijack this topic, sorry.
Why does one person doing that make the entire democratic party the party of plutocrats?

Talk about not arguing in good faith! You don't even understand basic logic let alone know what good faith is.

They really have some nerve complaining about Bloomberg having a lot of money. And he’s Jewish so they can’t say anything about that, and he’s white, he’s a man and he’s not grossly obese.

That’s what his driver is for.

Seriously. Trump hasn’t paid off anyone’s house out of the “kindness” of his “heart”

Bring on the pom poms. If one were to design a candidate in a lab, in response to the current era, Bloomberg is it. It’s hysterically funny and the objections are very revealing.

Because the party in which this is happening (a plutocrat spending an absolutely unimaginable amount of money to win the White House) just happens to be...........wait for it..........wait for it...............the Dems.

(Which is kind of ironic and funny, given the LONG history of democrats being the party which.............I don't really need to complete the point now, do I??........)
