It will be interesting to see how his campaign will fare – eschewing the traditional methods. It may work, but I doubt it. The other problem – it seems to be a hard sell, another billionaire from New York City – too much like what the GOP foisted on us in 2016.
There is nothing wrong with using your own assets to promote your run for office. Neither constitutionally, legally or even morally. Whether it’s a good idea is the color of a different horse. As long as Bloomberg confines himself, as he’s said he will, to pointing out the various problems of this administration while touting his own behavior as better, I’m okay. As soon as he starts attacking Democrats though, he needs to realize that they’ll attack back. And unless the DNC is even more compromised than I think, that attack will include “He’s not a Democrat, he’s running as an independent”.
oh my, never seen so many whiney lefties that weren’t on tv hitting people with bike locks. No problem with a billionaire as long as he speaks your propaganda.

Well Fox News is Trump News so of course Bloomberg will be seen, and rightfully so, having a media outlet totally devoted to him.

Another authoritarian billionaire who thinks he knows better than everyone else.

Anyone want to defend this as a good cartoon?

Boy, so many people love to read a comic they disagree with, and then spend so much time telling why they hate it.
