(36,109 posts)IF45, by the time he got done, could convince audiences that his Giuliani is a canonizable saint next to Bloomberg.

(11,297 posts)Trump can run on the economy, i know it's Obama's, but he'll still run on it, and say Bernie will destroy it.
Capitalism vs. Communism, simple as that.

Wonder what ads he is preparing as a response to criticism about his misogyny.

(46,051 posts)And I keep thinking, "at least he didn't actually assault anyone." But then I think, "is that really good enough?"
We could certainly do worse, and if he can take down Trump, that's a huge plus.

(8,055 posts)as an ill-considered joke or an ill-considered defense. I also look at what they've done with their money when it could have gone to anything they wished. Geez, need more coffee I'm an editing fool today.

(21,500 posts)women and the numerous accusations of sexual harrassment.
But maybe it's ok if you have good health coverage to deal with the physical and psychological effects of harrassment and devaluation as a human being.
Perhaps his push for wealth accumulation for minorities will compensate for the damage he did as NYC mayor. Speaking of NYC, maybe he'll even extend his presidential term if he's elected, like he did as mayor.
How many more Republicans will he put into elected office?
How will he handle emolluments issues better than Trump? How many conflicts of interest will he have between business and government?
Since he flips parties for his own convenience and has no real commitments, will he be just a self-serving trade-off for the current self-server?
For me, actions and record speak louder than advertising $.

(8,055 posts)I also note he was lauded for promoting women within his companies and time as mayor.

What is his motive for running? It cannot be just to defeat Trump because he could have spent his millions on already existing candidates to do that. Instead, he buys ads for himself to circumvent the usual election process and buy his way into office.

(8,055 posts)stuff I've read, at least from the 80's and 90's thru his mayor years. I think his motive is he's been mayor of NYC for 12 years and retirement is boring and he wants to President. I'm not sure why people aren't questioning Steyer's motives to this extent--that guy never even bothered to hold any office, let alone one as stressful and high-powered as Bloomberg had held for more than a decade.

Commercials runs on the radio station here in Los Angeles, but alas, Bloomberg has many radio commercials.

(5,444 posts)here it's black wealth creation, but this kind of message(wealth creation) including working class and middle class wealth creation will play well everywhere--and it's not as emphasized as it should be.
