Billionaire Bloomberg BEATS OBAMA… in spending the most on political ads EVER

At the risk of getting arrested for writing “Bloomberg beats Obama,” it is the truth. El Bloombito has spent more in one week on political spending than anyone ever, including Obama, the former spending champ.

So, get ready for some ads on television against Trumpito. I mean… does anyone still watch TV actually?

From The Hill:

Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg purchased a multi-million ad blitz in several states as he prepares to enter the crowded 2020 Democratic primary field.

The ad buy hit $31.5 million as of 5:05 p.m. ET and will be featured in 98 local markets as well as some national cable channels, ad tracking firm Advertising Analytics confirmed to The Hill. The purchase is the largest of any candidate ever in a single week of political advertising.

The 60-second ads will start airing Monday and run through Dec. 2.

The most expensive ad buys were in New York City, with $1.6 million, and Los Angeles, with $1.5 million. Bloomberg also targeted markets in Florida, Texas, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Michigan.

I can’t imagine that he would spend all of that money and still not jump into the election race. And he’s right about one thing – this Democratic field looks incredibly weak, and that makes the waters much warmer for someone to jump in.

On the other hand, does anyone actually think he has a chance? It is much likelier that he will play a spoiler and actually help Trump get re-elected.

This is a national outrage.
