New York billionaire Michael Bloomberg announced he’s blanketing Florida airwaves with a $40 million TV ad buy, the first since he pledged to spend $100 million in the Sunshine State to defeat President Trump

TALLAHASSEE — New York billionaire Michael Bloomberg announced Friday that he’s blanketing Florida airwaves with a $40 million TV ad buy, the first since he pledged to spend $100 million in the Sunshine State to defeat President Donald Trump.

Bloomberg, the former New York City mayor, last week announced he would spend $100 million in Florida in the run-up to the Nov. 3 election. Earlier this week, hehe was spending $16 million to help a group trying to pay off felons‘ outstanding court debts, a step required for them to regain their voting rights under Amendment 4, a measure approved by Florida voters in 2018 as a framework for felons to have their voting rights restored.

This exactly the thing will happen when we remove the objective merit-based admission. For those who want Prop 16, this is what you are going to get. RT if you agree and help to vote NoOnProp16.

Bloomberg give your $40 Million for the homeless in NYC

He needs to stomp for Jamie in SC and fight like hell to oust Mitch in Kentucky

Buying Votes is illegal 18 U.S. Code § 597, Expenditures to influence voting. Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if the violation was willful, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.

Thank you.

Thank you for keeping your promise. Get rid of this corrupt administration

I HOPE THAT HE IS CAREFUL IN PERSON. THEY HAVE LIFTED COVID RESTRICTIONS.

That’s not fair. He shouldn’t be allowed to spend his money as he wishes. There should be a law that no one is allowed to do anything the Trump does not like. If you do YOUR FIRED. Trump is laughed at all over the world. Inject disinfectant. Everyone knows Trump is really stupid.

Thank you very much MikeBloomberg

I love seeing Bloomberg flip DeSantis the bird! 🖕 Makes my day!

At some point you have to ask yourself “is Bloomberg just trying to give the finger to Trump just because he doesn’t like him and at what cost are we the people going to have to pay in their war?”

🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

If that money went to EDUCATION there wouldn’t be so many idiots in America! But no; advertising is apparently more important than educating people. Glad I don’t watch TV anymore. Not worth the bill.

How about giving money to get Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham out while your at it? Thanks!

That's a pretty big political donation wonder what his cap is.

I am happy to see Bloomberg putting his money to good use. I can’t think of anything better than helping rid this country of the most vile, despicable human being that ever held office. Thank you Michael!!!

Placer I live in Florida we need ads to defeat this madman in the world the White House.

Go awf...

Put this bugger and Soros in Jail!!!! Please!!

throw away the money it not going to work! Trump 2020

And Michael Caputo is likely to respond with a $300M tax-payer funded ad campaign that is staffed by his cronies.

Good for him.

😊

Should have been done a lot sooner.

Imagine spending $100M to defeat a man in one state instead of spending $100M to help the people that have suffered financially during this pandemic

Just play him talking. His own words are his worst enemy

I’m seeing them. Thanks Michael. BidenHarris2020 VoteBlueToSaveAmerica onetermtrump VoteBlueDownBallot

How about some coin for some of the “battleground” states that will decide this election as they did in ‘16? Voters on fence in MI, WI & PA need to see what this derelict has done & will do if re-elected. C’mon boys; loosen up the purse strings. One ad after another showing truth

I think if Bloomberg thinks of he can buy election in Florida by releasing felons and paying off there debt to society. Maybe he’s got enough to buy all felons out in this country. I think Biden might reconsider his support. Hunter has enough money

Nothing like burning through money in lost causes...

MikeBloomberg IS PUTTING HIS MONEY$$$$ WHERE HIS MOUTH IS! A REAL BILLIONAIRE FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE, AND DEMOCRACY! HE KNOWS THE CONMAN THAT TRUMP IS- THANK YOU BLOOMBERG!

So, did Bloomberg pay his former campaign staff yet? He should not be bragging to spend hundreds of millions of $ on anything when he won't pay his own workers.

trying to tell the swamp people they're sheeps in a herd

Will be reimbursed underground with every single penny he gives for this vile purpose.

Fed. Gov. should have voters receiving a copy of a receipt for voting at t/polling place.This would be a paper trail for t/electronic vote&a way to help eliminate Russian interference.Hand deliver your vote to t/Elections Office or use ballot drop boxes if provided by your state.

G o get him Mike1 ALL THE CONNIVING BY GOV. DESANTIS TO DENY VOTING RIGHTS IS JUST ANOTHER TRUMP TRICK FOR THE ELECTION.

Great now please help expedite building the BQXNYC

Corrupt jerk trying to help buy the election. LockHimUp
