"SNIP.....

“Mike Bloomberg is plotting a massive spending blitz to back Joe Biden’s quest for the White House,” CNBC reports.

“The former New York mayor and his closest political advisors are discussing whether Bloomberg’s expenditure will include major donations to pro-Biden super PACs, Biden’s joint fundraising effort with the Democratic National Committee, or another independent group.”

“Though it’s unclear how much Bloomberg will eventually spend, some of the people familiar with the matter noted that they anticipate Bloomberg to end up spending in excess of $250 million to support Biden… Any major financial support from Bloomberg backing Biden does not include what he could put toward assisting congressional Democrats.”

[Budi]

3. We welcome his assist & Thank You Mr Bloomberg

4. Good News, Sir, But A Damn Bad Headline

The man is 'planning', not 'plotting'. This is not an instance of slight differences in the value of words within different branches of the languages, on the line of 'scheme', which in England or India would convey only a plan or program, not something underhand and nefarious, as the word does here. 'Plot' always conveys a sense of underhand and nefarious, and there is certainly nothing of either quality in Mr. Bloomberg's willingness to assist the Democratic Party, and facilitate the rescue of the United States from the cheap thug and his enablers.

Indeed, a person of more finely attuned sensibilities might wonder how it is a New York Jew 'plots' financing some political activity, while people like the DeVos family and the Menards family 'support' right wing causes and candidates....

19. Good catch!

They never miss a chance to stick a little dagger in, do they?

[Aristus]

5. It's nice to have some deep pockets on our side for a change.

Imagine being so debased by obscene wealth that one supports Trump even as our once-great nation swirls down the spout...

14. Afraid you are right.

10. His spending bumped him up early on & and that was amazing.

Seriously. He went up the polls pretty fast with the barrage of commercials. Overtaking candidates that were much more likable and decent. In reality smarmy dude but the $ worked well for a time. Very snazzy and voluminous ads. High quality, well made ads, and made him look like a legit contender even though he was not.

This may put Biden up by more than 15-20 points by September.

[BigmanPigman]

11. Yeah! I was wondering when he would start his plan.

13. If Mike Bloomberg thinks he can save America

Mr. Mayor, HAVE AT IT! Do whatever it takes.

[mountain grammy]

15. Good.. get busy!

16. Bloomberg's team (Tim Obrien, etc) is tough, a bigtime asset for our side.

They don't play around, and were the only ones to really go after Trump hard, as well as Bernie during the primaries, in a way that nobody else wanted to... ditto for the Lincoln Project guys.

[BComplex]

27. Yep. Credit where credit is due.

You're right on all counts.

[aidbo]

17. So about a quarter of what he spent trying to get himself elected in the primary.

Hope it works.

[SheltieLover]

18. Yaaaaaay!

I've been waiting & wondering.

[eggplant]

20. I'll believe it when I see it.

He didn't do right by his staff.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

21. Welcome to the fray, Mayor Bloomberg!

It's about time.

We are thrilled to have your influence and money on our side!

[MontanaMama]

22. Let's get this show in the road.

Spend it already!

[warmfeet]

23. Vote for Joe.

Contribute to Joe.

[calimary]

24. GOOD. That bastard is gonna cheat like nobody's ever seen or imagined.

We need Bloomberg-big bucks. Glad Michael Bloomberg plans to make good on his promise.

25. Good! Biden's digital team so far is poor imo.

I haven't been really impress with any other there ads by Biden's team and any source that wants to take down Trump is fine by me.
They should be making 30 sec online ads everyday and it would not be that hard given Trump's material. The more that rattle Trump the more attention it gets and so far nothing that Biden team produced is all that effective imo. They are often too long and unfocused.

26. K&R for, I'll take it!
