Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
If Bloomberg were to drop out, and he follows through with his financial support commitment, how
does he achieve that, without crossing campaign donation rules ?
1. Superpac ? But if he is to offer his existing campaign staff/offices/data team etc, that means no contact with the Biden campaign ?
2. By "Suspending his campaign" can he just give all of the above to work for Biden ?
3 By not suspending his campaign (but not campaigning), he can spend as much as he wants, on whomever he wants ?

OP
Issue advocacy (e.g. "get rid of the crooked traitorous moron in the White House" messages) is wide open compared to specific-candidate advocacy.

campaign donation rules ? That's the bit I'm wondering about.
