I heard it too many times last night -- "Joe, you have so much money". "Joe, you make all that money".
I think his campaign folks had a meeting with him shortly before the debate, and compared Trump's warchest to Joe's warchest, and that Trump had to do well in the debate because it was free advertising.
Of course, with Trump, campaign money is *HIS* money, to buy hotels, houses, limos, -- and so he thinks that's how other people use campaign money.
So that was foremost on the baffoon's mind, and like the blithering idiot he is, it kept on saying "Joe, you have a lot of money, you have all those houses" etc.
He's broke. I'd bet a lot of chips on that.

(1,975 posts)But those comments were more likely just part of his last ditch effort to paint Joe as an "elitist", since this is supposed to be the opposite of what Democrat voters like. He's got nothing to run on. All his adds are just more of "don't vote for Democrats, they are (insert buzzword)...."

"If I wanted to, I could call all the CEOs of every company and raise more money than you've ever seen...blah blah blah. But I don't want to do that.....blah blah blah"
He plays his severe fundraising shortcomings off as some sort of conscious decision against perceived improprieties, when in actually he's never met an impropriety that he didn't like and advance on.
