Bloomberg is running in 3 super-Tuesday states so far: Alabama Arkansas and Tennessee but his campaign always says he hasn't decided if he's running for president or not yet. Sounds crazy to me but... he's also spending $100,000,000 on digital ads in battleground states the way you or I might spent $100.
Last night the ad above started airing in New Hampshire. Bad news for Status Quo Joe, who depending on which poll you're looking at, is coming in first, second or third.
Yesterday, Bernie's campaign manager Faiz Shakir, sent out an e-mail about the troublesome billionaires afflicting the Democratic Party. "First," he wrote, "we had to face off against candidates flying around the country begging rich people for money at high-dollar fundraisers. Even so, we’ve out-raised them all… at just $19 a contribution.
It's not really possible to accurately poll a caucus state, and especially not Iowa. The most recent attempt, by Siena for the NY Times shows a close tie between Elizabeth, Bernie, Mayo Pete and Status Quo Joe.
Another addition to the B TeamI saw a headline yesterday, How The Insufferably Woke Help Trump. Uggghh, how did that Fox crap get into my news feed? But it wasn't Fox, it was a pro-Biden op-ed by insufferably #NeverWoke 65 year old NY Times columnist Timothy Egan.
There are always exceptions to blanket statements in politics, but, at least, to my mind, that billionaires should not be supported in presidential runs is not one of them. Steyer may be a better candidate, issue-wise than, say, the far more conservative and venal Michael Bloomberg, but he's still a billionaire who thinks he's entitled to buy whatever his money can buy.
The new poll from Monmouth released Wednesday makes it clear that most Americans do not want Trump to have a second term.
