First, Democrat voters were more willing to elect a corrupt, senile old man than a self-avowed socialist. Second, no one particularly likes Sen. Elizabeth Warren\u2014not even her home state of Massachusetts. And, finally, perhaps best of all, despite trying to buy his way into the White House with his horde of cash, billionaire and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg was only able to win one tiny U.S. territory, American Samoa, which isn\u2019t even a U.S. state.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Not all of the votes have been counted yet, but, so far, former Vice President Joe Biden has taken a decisive lead in the delegate count following yesterday\u2019s marathon primary voting where voters in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, and Virginia all held their presidential primaries. Biden is leading with 509 delegates to Sanders\u2019s 458. Warren trails with a paltry 47 delegates. Presidential contenders need 1,991 to take the nomination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Meanwhile, despite spending $500 million of his own money on his campaign, Bloomberg wasn\u2019t able to amass any victories except for taking the primary in American Samoa, a remote territory of the United States far away in the south Pacific Ocean.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Bloomberg apparently saw the writing on the wall and dropped out of the race on March 4.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Not one to miss an opportunity, President Donald Trump piled onto Bloomberg\u2019s humiliation, tweeting, \u201cMini Mike Bloomberg just \u2018quit\u2019 the race for president. I could have told him long ago that he didn\u2019t have what it takes, and he would have saved himself a billion dollars, the real cost. Now he will pour money into Sleepy Joe\u2019s campaign, hoping to save face. It won\u2019t work!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Mini Mike Bloomberg just \u201cquit\u201d the race for President.

According to reports, he had been forced to settle with 64 different employees, his lawyers slapping each of them with non-disclosure agreements that prevented them from being able to speak openly about what happened. He was also widely assailed for his conflicts of interest in China where he has made billions of dollars doing business with the communist country. Videos showed the vertically challenged billionaire defending the autocratic leadership of China, which regularly imprisons and murders political dissidents and religious followers.<\/span><\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TOu-2mulMog\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">In the video above, Bloomberg explains to an incredulous PBS host, Chinese President Xi Jinping \u201cis not a dictator\u201d because \u201che has a constituency to answer to.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Bloomberg was repeatedly torn apart by Warren during the Democrat presidential debates, who, in one telling exchange, said, \u201cI\u2019d like to talk about who we\u2019re running against: a billionaire who calls women \u2018fat broads\u2019 and \u2018horse-faced lesbians.\u2019 And no, I\u2019m not talking about Donald Trump, I\u2019m talking about Mayor Bloomberg.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Warren herself is reportedly deliberating dropping out of the race after her miserable performance as well yesterday. She couldn\u2019t even win in Massachusetts, where her constituents picked Biden at 33.4% followed by Sanders at 26.8%, and then Warren at 21.6%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/americanfreepress.net\/voters-overwhelmingly-reject-entitled-billionaire-who-tried-to-buy-white-house\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Voters have soundly rejected the billionaire and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who tried to buy his way into the White House <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[61],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-203594","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Commentary"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/203594","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=203594"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/203594\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":203597,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/203594\/revisions\/203597"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=203594"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=203594"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=203594"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
