Inside The Biggest 2020 Advertising War Against Trump | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Morning, Elise!
This has me thinking I should check in to the Law to see if it’s legal to sell my vote on eBay or something, save this dude some capital. Edit It is super illegal. :'(
Ballot harvesting is legal in California.
Democrats are buying votes with “free” stuff. Yang has promised everyone $1000 a month if they vote for him.
@Shelby Tydings I honestly surprised it is not working better for him, it actually gives me hope for the future that he is not the front runner, sad as that may be, because I could think of a few things to do with that $12k a year.
@Sparky’s Space Sure you get $1000 a month “free”, and it only costs you $2500 a month in taxes.
@Shelby Tydings I am a single male with no dependents, I would probably be paying $5,000/month, it would almost be worth it to see a check with the government seal and my name on it.
The problem with “big money” is not about the amount that candidates spend on their campaign or on advertising, but about big donations from lobby groups.
And even further, it’s about the DARK money more than just normal donors. (The donors that DONT want their names publicized). In all fairness, most donors who only pay $10,000 get a fancy dinner, a picture with their candidate, and maybe the candidate will pick up the phone if they call. Also, most smart companies actually donate to BOTH parties to AVOID repercussions. It’s 50% a political extortion racket, and 50% buying politicians for corporate agendas.
Str8 4ward do you wake up this stupid everyday or…?
MVVpro , I agree but Michael Bloomberg is so rich.He does not need donations from other people so he does not owe anybody anything. He is the candidate and the person with the money.He is one and the same person.
He is also known for being a philanthropist. So yes he is rich but he gives a lot away. He supports good courses so he wants now to put his weight behind to get Donald Trump out of office.
The problem in your country is, that money IS the most important. I remember the first and only time, thank God, I came to your country, the first question people asked me was: How much do you earn. THAT WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THEY HAD TO KNOW. Not if I had studied, not how many languages I spoke, not if I had children, not…………. Everywhere in Murica, the same question: “How much do you earn.” Sooo…..your country is reigned by and for money, nothing else, and now, you have to live with what you worship.
@Str8 4ward the dnc will give it to russia for some fake news pee story again. So go ahead and just give it to russia yourselves
money and the never ending campain, how anything gets done is beyond me
Nothing ever gets done. Our bridges were built in 1960
phodough as a Canadian I like our political system because the whole campaign lasts 3 months then the election. It seems in US politics everything that the government in power does get done is part of the campaign for the next election. Certainly never more true than for this administration.
“Be thankful we don’t get all the government we pay for.” –Will Rogers
All the money spent (wasted) on campaigns could be better used to the debt or on improvement projects.
Take a look, *nothing* has been done in the last three years that benefits the American people.
Maybe the last 30 years?
Once again, no mention of Bernie (who was also against the Iraq war).
Are you kidding me? Bernie’s health is a joke. Seriously, it would be like “Weekend At Bernie’s.” They would have to prop his decrepid body up in the oval office.
You all should just go attack each other with sticks and stones. Ya weirdo country.
@Sebastian Thor you guys like Russia tho.
@CM Davies Putin Stronk Leader
Bernie will never be president.
Citizens united opened pandoras box…full stop…fair elections stopped on that day…
Even worse, he may try to claim emergency power and use it to become America’s equivalent to a dictator. Just came back from Twitter, and the Donald just said something about hating NY city and state “even more than I should.” Not even joking.
Citizens United should be used to enforce corporations into paying the same progressive tax rates as individuals . With equal ‘rights’ comes equal responsibilities . You would see the Power Elite move faster than the speed of light to negate CU then .
@Ty Sargent
He is a very sick and bitter man. Sadly much of the country seems to have the same flaws in their character.
Trump is after all a product of his culture. Americans will never admit that, it’s far more comforting to blame Russia.
sad.
@JoeyFiveandDimes
And there is the problem, the country is not united, its utterly divided.
Jim B .………………… AND, I am unalterably opposed to ‘uniting’ with fascists ….. not that that would even be possible .
What?..No mention of Bernie Sanders?…shocking.
How do you not realise that the DNC is going to take down Bernie big time, seriously, I’m a Trump fan but I would like to see Bernie v Trump in 2020. But you don’t even have a democracy within the democratic party that are working so strongly with left media
In January 2020 there will be a massive attack on Bernie, because they are scared of him, he is too much of a threat to the establishment. Just look at history, one of the very early progressives, McGovern v Nixon. The DNC did a campaign for Nixon, Nixon of all people. Nothing has changed they simple will not allow a progressive to become nominee. There is likely to be an attack from the right against Bernie as well
But any-way good luck, but my prediction is if Bernie is the nominee if he makes it, which is real, because he has a base and building momentum, the left media and DNC will put 100’s of millions into Trump’s campaign fund
Pretty sad isn’t it
@stephen glover Of course, as a Trump fan, you want the Democratic Party impeded by Sanders, who isn’t even a Democrat. But, gloat not, most Democrats are intelligent, and will not choose Sanders.
Bernie who??
*Bernie Sanders* is the only candidate running who lead the opposition to the Iraq War, as well as every single one of Trump’s military budget increases.
@jamescreys wow. You do realize that the economic growth Drumph likes to brag about has occurred primarily in counties that voted for Clinton? And that Drumph supporters are low education which correlates to low income? That the Red states have higher rates of welfare and poverty than Blue states, which are the economic engines of this country? Where do you think your phone or laptop that you’re using right now come from? Meanwhile the Red States are the welfare Queens supported by the hard working Blue states.
@Linda Scott what a lying witch you are.
The dems are the dumbest beasts that exists on earth.
They pay millions to get their stupid ignorant children into colleges and universities they don’t qualify for.
Dem rat kids a plain stupid, lazy, drugged-out, sexually perverted morons.
🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸Trump 2020!!! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
@jamescreys You’re describing greedy repuglicunts ya knobjockey!
WE HAVE TO GET ALL THE MONEY OUT OF POLITIC’s HE SAID WITH A WINK AND A NOD AS HE STOOD GRINDING FROM EAR TO EAR!!!!!
Bernie was also against the Iraq war 🤨🤔 strange they didn’t put anything about that in there
@hollow points bullets thats what they all say, then comes the dictatorship !
@Deborah Freedman bernie is a good man and that fact needs to be set straight now more than ever.
@Sebastian Thor ok fascist
Yoda Master https://youtu.be/XkFKZh8rMao
Maybe because dems are pro war. Just like they are big pharma
Judgement this, judgement that. I’ll try that on my next interview, see how it goes.
I give you a thumbs up, not for your comment, but for your nametag.
I love Eddie! His point is one of the most important. As a voter I don’t want ANY billionaire controlling our politics with their money!
Did you know that its costing us (taxpayers) over $108,000 thousand dollars PER DAY for Trump to play golf. Fact-check it.
darlings.. I love you Bernie..
We were largely conned into invading Iraq under false information.
Bloomberg has 5% and they talk about him …. amazing, what about Bernie?
Hello, Humans. It’s amazing what happens, when you click on something. You never know what might happen.
TERRANCE OUT
So missing the point. Bloomberg’s money is going into the economy: editors, copywriters, production companies, TV stations etc etc etc. Circular flow of income – my dollar earned is my dollar spent is your dollar earned. PLUS Bloomberg News? Daaa. He knows about this stuff.
Sounds like they are trying hard to meddle in the election.
Did Bloomberg just buy MSNBC or the Morning Bozo show?
