    I’m guessing Amy out debates EW next debate.
    Her message is more palatable imo.

    You're implying that a billionaire utilizing the legal remedy of bankruptcy to protect a business from failing, keeping employees employed, is despicable.

    I am just pointing out that Paul Allen is despicable by your definition.

    Would you want Paul Allen as POTUS, or was he too dishonest and corrupt? :dunno:

    No, I didn't "imply" anything...instead, you evidently "inferred" incorrectly...learn the difference between the two terms.

    The world's richest racist is convinced he can buy a new image with his billions:

    Bloomberg rolls out more than $57M in TV ads in first weeks of campaign
    By Sam Dorman | Fox News

    Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has only been in the 2020 race for two weeks, and already he's spending more than the Trump campaign and leading Democrats.


    According to Advertising Analytics, Bloomberg's campaign had spent more than $57.5 million on TV ads, more than three times the spend of the Trump Make America Great Again Committee ($19 million). The pro-Trump committee was followed by South Bend, Ind. Mayor Pete Buttigieg at $15.6 million and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. at $14 million.

    Bloomberg narrowly trailed fellow billionaire Tom Steyer, who had spent nearly $60.2 million on ads.


    CNBC reported that Bloomberg's ad spending included $6 million in national television spots, more than $4 million in Texas ads, and $3 million focused on New York and Los Angeles.

    Trump's campaign, which already has the full support from the Republican Party, has been working with the Republican National Committee to raise a record amount of funds -- amassing an enormous war chest against whoever the Democratic nominee will be.

    Bloomberg entered the 2020 presidential race relatively late and needs to make gains in the polls if he wants to keep up with the party's frontrunners.

    Bloomberg's investment was the most any candidate ever spent in a single week of advertising, according to Advertising Analytics. And according to market research data, Bloomberg's ads ran 19,006 times between Nov. 23 and Dec. 1.

    The massive amount of spending will likely intensify progressive attacks on the former mayor.

    Sanders has already accused Bloomberg of trying to "buy this election." Fellow progressive Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., similarly attacked the billionaire turned presidential candidate.

    Prominent Sanders supporter Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., appeared to accuse Bloomberg of trying to "purchase our political system" at a recent rally in Iowa.


    "There are folks that are trying to completely purchase our political system, running as Republicans and now tossing in their hats as Democrats in the field as well," she said.

    "But what we're here to say is that in a democracy, it shouldn't matter how much money you have. What should matter is whether you vote, whether you caucus, whether you turn out. It's the numbers. It's the people. it's the movement."

    Y'know, I think Andrew Yang might be the George W. Bush of the current era.

    Because he’s popular and the establishment clearly doesn’t like his policies. They cheated him in 2016 and I believe they, with the help of the media, will do whatever it takes to take him down once again. ‘Russia’ seems to be the go-to smear with our awful media outlets lately, so I’m guessing that will be the tactic used. Gotta stick with what works I guess.
