His first Iowa ad was a Super Bowl ad, in 20fucking18!!! I'm certain I posted about it somewhere here

spent a lot less than sanders (and warren/buttigieg). didn't come into the quarter with as much and he certainly doesn't have the income that sanders does (incidentally and anecdotally, warren seems to still be raising fairly well, but buttigieg appears to have dropped off a lot), but his money disadvantage doesn't seem as severe as it might have been.

Not sure which ones Bloomberg doesn’t satisfy, but the unique donations rules seem stupid the later you get in the game. If they’re polling higher than others on the debate stage they should be in the debates.

the dnc eliminated donor requirements for the pre-nevada debate, clearing the way for bloomberg to participate if he meets the polling or delegate requirements.

warren just tweeted out whining about billionaires participating, but she earlier sent people to lobby the dnc for the requirements to be set so that bloomberg would qualify.

Your vote doesn’t matter, sys. You rough ridin' weirdo.

Don’t pay any attention to Da Big Dummy.

Nice work by the DNC.

Yeah I took it more to be just poor messaging, not necessarily double talk.

Hopefully my guy #bloomberg2020 is avoiding these kind of immature outbursts

That's a good example why she'll never get my vote. She's a lot like Hillary as she likes to lie about what her intent is for followers.

Yeah, boo’ing Hillary should be a common ground thread addition

Also I agree with letting Bloomy into the debate. When you are worth billions you shouldn’t be accepting donations to begin with. Not getting any should be encouraged.

Agreed, make him spend that money. The super bowl add going cost a few pennies.

Yeah. He should spend his money however he wants, you commie.

The government should be taking his money and spending it on something better.

I do not think spending a shitload of money running for president maximizes his happiness. As his advisor this is my position
