Did he ever say it was wrong to have 3 houses or did he say that the wealthy should pay more? I think he said the latter. I think he pays 11percent more under his own plan. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Question for the forum.... if Bloomberg gets destroyed on Super Tuesday, and has to drop out, does he use his money to help another Democrat? If he had to endorse one of the 5 remaining, who does he endorse?

He’s already said he will be spending hundreds of millions on the general election no matter what.

Although if Bernie is the nominee, I could see him shying away from that....

I hope he does, but I can see him being vindictive after the drumming he took the other night. And if he goes that route, it's proof that it was all about his own ego instead of doing what's right for the country.

Bloomberg is putting billboards "up in Phoenix and Las Vegas, where Trump will be campaigning Friday. The billboards will not only go up in high visibility areas near Trump hotel property on the Vegas Strip, but will also appear along potential motorcade routes where the president may see them as he drives by."

Like "Trump went broke running a casino."

Forget Trump entirely, Sanders has been a 40yr politician currently making ~$170k a year and recently sold a book for a million dollars, not to mention a few pensions from previous government work. Add that to his "many houses", (in affluent suburbs, no less) and dude is worth...***drum roll***... less than three million dollars. You know, exactly what one would (and I daresay SHOULD) expect from a lifelong civil servant.

Thanks for the highlight, ace. Doin' the Lord's work.

My point was not his net worth - I couldn't care less about his net worth or how many houses he owns
I was pointing out the dichotomy between his proposing a socialist system with the obvious fruits of his living in a capitalistic system

Not necessarily. I can see Steyer or Bloomberg or even Warren making the same gesture Trump did. It is really irrelevant. The day after you are President you can have a book deal in the 10’s of millions. And speaking engagements for hundreds of thousands per, if not millions.

I do think Sanders has an optics issue owning 3 houses. I think his wife has been involved in some shady things, and will come under the microscope if Bernie gets the Democrat nod. I think Buttigieg has the least in his closet to be afraid of, except Chasten who is of course out of the closet.

Isn’t it sad that 3 of the candidates (Trump, Steyer, Bloomberg) are billionaires? And Trump, Bloomberg, Biden, Sanders, Warren are all old?

Steyer who!

Bloomberg sure

Warren no way. Women dont give up their pay like that ever.

The President is a fink.

Dear Lord...some of the things people find offensive these days are out of hand. I can't judge something without knowing what it was and more about the incident overall.

I guess you don't know that some wild and false allegations have been made along the way to where we are.
