Is he running a tax dodge or something? BBC went to offices and places workers were supposed to be, no one anywhere.

Well, he won American Samoa... so there's that...


$100 million per delegate. But that doesn't include the ones he's going to bribe at the convention.

Bloomberg is having a really bad night.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

There's a reason why he's already campaigning in Florida tonight. They don't vote until March 17th, but if he doesn't find something to look forward to he might have to...drop out.

Incidentally, did anyone else notice that the only other candidate who did well in Samoa was Tulsi Gabbard? You don't think folks there are trying to send someone a message, do ya?

Surprised to see him getting 20+% of their vote in Colorado, ahead of Biden.

If only he'd piss away all his money and end up in the poor house so we don't have to hear from him again.

That means she can self identify as the winner.

Wait, isn't that her home state? Does this mean she has little chance of being re-elected as senator?

Former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg (D) will “reassess” whether his campaign for the presidency should continue following a poor showing in Super Tuesday primaries.

NBC News reporter Josh Lederman said the Bloomberg campaign will take “another look tomorrow, once the data comes in” at whether the billionaire still has a path to the nomination.

“They will take a look to see whether there’s a reason to continue with this after tomorrow,” Lederman added.

“From his unmatched record on gun safety and climate change, to his plans to lead America through a crisis, Mike Bloomberg has shown voters he knows how to get it done,” Sheekey added. “Tonight, only one-third of delegates will be allotted. As Mike said tonight, ‘No matter how many delegates we win tonight, we have done something no one else thought was possible. In just three months, we’ve gone from just 1% in the polls to being a contender for the Democratic nomination.”

‘”Our number one priority remains defeating Donald Trump in November,”

Haha and all it cost him was 3/4 of a BILLION dollars to be a loser. I thought this guy was a businessman?

And got his butt kicked by a Castro-era Marxist, a fake Indian, and a guy so old he can't even recall what office he's running for.

At least when Trump ran in 2012, he didn't blow tons of money. Honestly, I think he just jumped in there as a trial run for 2016. But he used that to evaluate and analyze. I don't recall his blowing so much on that run. Not Bloomturd levels of stupid money at least. Trump took what he knew, learned from it, then steam rolled the competition. But it doesn't look like Bloomturd had that plan. He thought like the lefties, that Trump won merely by the power of his wallet. Heck, listen to some of his interviews. He doesn't come right out and say it, but you kind of get the gist that he hung his hope on a brokered convention where he could buy enough "super delegates" to take the nomination. But now his cost looks like $700 million for 17 delegates. That's going to be expensive. Probably too expensive for Bloomturd.

But again, I do hope he keeps spending to the point of going broke. But even an idjit like Steyer saw that all his money couldn't buy enough votes. I'm just hoping Bloomturd is dumb enough to waste even more of his own money.

Just "thinking out loud" here: Given Bloomberg's poor showing in the primaries, I wonder if the drones he bought and paid for in the Virginia General Assembly might be re-assessing their own futures? Sure, they got a nice payday (one presumes), but if they're reading the tea leaves, it should be clear to them that Mini-Mike isn't going to be the next POTUS. So, they've cozied up to a loser and pissed off the Virginia voters doing so. What happens next election? Karma's a bitch.




You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

Will anyone remember the results of Bloomberg’s run (thus far) the next time there are complaints about someone’s “buying” an election?

“ Enlightenment is man’s emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one’s own understanding without another’s guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one’s own mind without another’s guidance.”
