    The democrat party has been selling America out, and selling America off, for decades. Now that they're being exposed and routed out, they're down to selling out their own party and selling off their party's nomination to the highest bidder. That's where Bloomberg comes in.

    If it really doesn't matter who your nominee is, as long as he is not-Trump, why not sell the nomination off to the highest bidder ? No harm done, right ? If the election is going to be nothing but a referendum on President Trump anyway, why not sell the nomination to the highest bidder? You must admit that they have a point. If it doesn't matter who exactly the not-Trump candidate is, why not sell the nomination to the highest bidder? And as for Bloomberg, himself, this is his only shot. Bloomberg could only ever hope to be president if, and only if, it didn't matter that he is Michael Bloomberg.

    You've got to hand it to those traitors who have been selling us out, and selling us off, for all these many years; they are as consistent as one trick ponies. Traitors to the end, now they sell out their own party and sell off their party's nomination.

    If it mattered, at all, exactly who the not-Trump candidate is, would the DNC still sell their nomination to Bloomberg?

    Perhaps, in 2024, the DNC will have to sell their nomination to consortium of candidates because no one candidate will be able to afford it. I read that Bloomberg is paying upwards of two billion dollars for the democrat nomination. How's that quid pro quo ?

    Obviously to prevent a Sanders nomination.

    They're actually selling the country to China. Bloomberg is a foreign agent working in China's best interests.

    Please prove your assertion in detail.

    While you are researching your position, ask yourself what you'd be saying about a Dem prez who has juiced the economy with a deficit expanding tax cut for the rich at a time of relative prosperity.......who is now proposing another tax cut to buy votes from the middle class. All at the expense of future generations so he can maintain his popularity with his base.

    If it mattered, at all, in the slightest, exactly who the not-Trump candidate is, would the DNC still sell the nomination to Bloomberg?

    Not speaking for bricklayer but decimating the military, signing onto international scam after scam, funnelling billions back to Iran, (don't give me it was their money crap. Obama could have given it directly to those who fled Iran and settled in this country and had plenty left over), and failure to monitor the immigration numbers all come to mind after one second of thought.

    From the RNC ? There wasn't a more anti-Trump organization in the world, in 2016, then the RNC.

    The fun part about it though, are all the hypocrites to the Left of Center proclaiming how principled they are and have been in comparison to GOPers whom in reality are not only going to OBEDIENTLY look the other way as this happens but ARE going to vote for a fellow that they -- by their own often touted political standards -- must also consider to be a racist and a bigot and an oppressor of the people. In other words we are supposed to forget about every thing they ever claimed matters to them while they joint participate in a rousing game of The Political Ends Justify the Political Means selection process.

    Are you kidding me? Trump never spends his own money. He won the nomination because all the others were run of the mill politicians.
    Perhaps you should hope for Komrad Bernie Freeshit Sanders to win the democrat party nomination, nobody likes him either.

    Nope, Trump won because he did his ground work. Something Bloomberg is way too late to catch up on...

    And the taxpayers paid for it as we spent $28 Billion to bail out rural farmers who got screwed blued and tattooed by Dirty Donalds tariff war with China. That's more than twice what Obama spent to save U.S.auto manufacturers from insolvency.

    It is simple: Bloomberg is the highest bidder.

    In 2016 Hillary was the highest bidder. Bernie got screwed because he didn't pony up the cash.

    Oh my listen to the fear!!! Bloomberg scares the hell out of trump and trumpers. And he should.

    No one is selling anything. Bloomberg has the means to run an unconventional race and he is now getting traction. He is running 2nd or 3rd in a lot of polls.

    And yes, one reason is because he can beat trump. That IS the most important thing.

    What was it that Donald Trump said in 2016 to get elected ... "I don't need anybody's money. It's nice. I don't need anybody's money. I'm using my
    own money. I'm not using the lobbyists. I'm not using donors. I don't care. I'm really rich."

    Trump went on to blast big-money super PACS as horrible scams in violation of federal election law ... politicians who rely on super PACS are beholden
    to their wealthy contributors, he said. He then declared, "That's not going to happen with me."

    So Republicans rejoiced and elected the rich guy who didn't need anyone else's money because they thought he would be free of influence. He bought their votes with the promise he would use his own money.

    Guess what? Now along comes even richer Bloomberg. And he's promising not to take any one else's money and declared he won't take a salary.
    And also guess what? Now Trump is taking money from super PACS and rich donors.

    So also guess what? Trump supporters haven't a moral leg to stand on when it comes to Bloomberg buying an election. End of story.

    Trump bought the Republican vote by promising not to use other people's money and not to take a salary. I'm not impressed with
    your pretend outrage.

    And now Trump has gone back on that promise as well - he's taking super-PAC money and donations from rich donors. One more lie from the Donald.

    Direct quote from Donal Trump on June 16, 2015, "I'm using my own money. It's nice. I don't need anybody's money. I'm not using donors.
    I don't care. I'm really rich." Just another lie? He's sure using big PAC money and rich donors now. The old bait and switch. A con man's go to move.

    Trump didn't have to spend much money. The media handed him $2 Billion of free media time on a silver platter and ignored the "real" Republican politicians from getting air time.

    They thought they were helping Hillary beat "the weakest candidate". Whoops!
