Michael Bloomberg as we all know is the candidate whose been terrorizing the Superbowl, internet and television with a hundred million dollars worth of advertising so that he can buy his way into polling and now the DNC is apparently changing their debate rules to allow him on the debate stage as well.
Why?
Probably because Michael Bloomberg has COURAGEOUSLY decided not to take any donations from BILLIONAIRES, or THOUSAND DOLLAR A PLATE FUNDRAISERS or SUPERPACS or SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS or CORPORATIONS.
Granted he is a billionaire whose done fundraisers, superpacs, special interest groups and in charge of corporations but still... now that Michael Bloomberg is in the double digits in polling, surpassing clearly inferior minority candidates like Tulsi Gabbard and Andrew Yang who are hawking for donations largely from small time donors, is this a sign of what is to come.
I'm not sure how much money Trump used for financing his campaign but I don't think it was that much IIRC. Bloomberg meanwhile hasn't taken any donations. He just needs ads and polling results... taken via ads. This is a good insight into the future dystopias of science fiction where giant banners advertising Coca-Cola and Google and Bloomberg for President will haunt the commercialized airwaves.
