It Appears That Voters Like Bernie Sanders

6. Michael Bloomberg

Checking in on the performance art.

Every few weeks we like to update Surge readers on Bloomberg’s experimental project to burn a billion dollars that means nothing to him and, when gone, will still leave enough money for him, his children, his grandchildren, and his great-grandchildren to buy anything they want, as many times as they want, for as long as they live. The way some of us might copy-paste some passing thought from a tweet into a newsletter? This is how Bloomberg treats national advertising purchases on major television networks. On Thursday he released a nationwide ad just to blast some book excerpt about how Trump is rude to the military. He bought a nationwide Super Bowl ad because he thought it might “jab” Trump. Ha ha. But while he’s at it, why doesn’t he just offer Trump $30 billion to not run for reelection? No, really, why not?
