This is a network that's willing to accept as gospel truth any rumor, no matter how stupid or unsubstantiated, against certain Democratic politicians they don't like, but Bloomy gets an unconditional pass for everything in his past while being simultaneously elevated to the status of Messiah-matinee idol. Amazing what $$$ can buy.

They suck.

They will give him a pass on all the crap he has said and done as long as he can take Trump down. That is by far the highest and perhaps the only priority now.

His money will stop helping him . He won't be the candidate after they learn more about him, and then watch as his poll numbers will start down as quickly as they went up. The American don't want a billionaire as our president.
