According to the report, Bloomberg is rehiring hundreds of his now defunct campaign's staffers in six swing states to help elect the Democratic nominee in the November general election against President Donald Trump.

(11,605 posts)If you mean he's trying to rebuild his legacy after Warren tore him apart in the debates, I don't think it's that. He was already committed to doing this.
I am grateful for it, don't get me wrong, but it's probably about more than legacy. He also wants to remain influential.

(713 posts)I was not a fan of his Presidential Campaign, but I approve of this. If a private citizen with money wants to buy ads and build organizations in swing states to help Democratic Candidates, I am all for it.
