Bloomberg Trolls Trump With Giant Billboard On Vegas Strip

I feel like this belongs here more DP. I am not a fan of Bloomberg for the Nom. but since this is directed at Trump in general I felt it fit here better and I really do appreciate what he is doing to take down Trump.



Source: AFP

Las Vegas (AFP) - Democratic White House hopeful Michael Bloomberg mocked Donald Trump with a giant billboard on the Las Vegas Strip on Friday, fueling their feud as the US president visits the city for a rally.

"Donald Trump lost the popular vote," read one slogan on the world-famous street lined with casinos, while another read "Donald Trump's wall fell over."

The giant digital billboard is just two miles (three kilometers) down the Strip from Trump's own hotel, where the president is staying while in Las Vegas.

Bloomberg is vying for the Democratic nomination to take on Trump at November's election, and has focused his fire on the president rather than candidates from his own party.

Children in cages? Maybe some Rump women don’t like that.
Screwed contractors working for him out of their pay and products? A few Rump men don’t like that.
Otherwise they’ll forgive him most anything.
Unless they find a tape of him with a black woman or gay man. I think that might not wash. But who knows.

Donald Trump cages children and takes away their parents.

I'm sure there are a ton of slogans we can come up with here.

I don’t want Bloomberg as president either but I’m loving his attacks on Trump. Bloomberg can hit Trump in a way no one else can due to Bloomberg being a legit Billionaire. Gotta be making Trump’s head explode.

I am pretty amused by this little spat between two NY billionaires. Well, one billionaire and one liar who is up to his ears in debt. Anything that gets under IQ45's skin is a win as far as I'm concerned.

has he even said what he'll do for the people?? Since when does a billionaire even know how to relate to regular hard working people?

Plus doing the debate he didn't even mention he has a seascape mansion in Bermuda. and plays 2 rounds of golf, yeah sure he will have our best interests at heart.

way up. He wasn't born with a silver spoon in his mouth, so he does know something about the struggle. However, he is probably one of those who thinks that because he did it, everyone else should be able to do it too. Not everyone has the same gifts and luck in life.

not everyone has the same gifts but you noticed they have attitude of entitlement and anyone who is not like them are labeled as lazy, and you can pull yourselves by the bootstraps mentality. Real arrogance.

He grew up middle class, not wealthy.

Yeah, I saw the sarcasm smiley, but wasn't sure which statement it was referencing.

He isn’t in my top four choices, but I sure do like his ads.

He GETS what pisses trump off. He fights fire w fire. Dems don't see the value in it bc dems tend to be in their blue bubble. But rednecks will appreciate it bc it's snarky and base enough for them to understand. I think it will resonate with a lot of people living in red areas. GO MIKE!!
