I'm sure he would, and that would actually be out of his pocket. Kudo's to him for his commitment.

Trump said "I'm self-funding my own campaign" but really didn't and doesn't appear to have any desire to even play that "I'm so rich I am paying for may own campaign" game any more.

I have no interest in another know-it-all rich man - I didn't say billionaire because I believe Trump has no where near a billion dollars, thought I will vote for any other sane human other than the orange clown, so that's something.

I was right.

All I've seen are Bloomberg political ads. NFL games yesterday were full of them and facebook is splattered with them. Interesting if he can buy his way into the nomination. That article says Trump is spending 10 million dollars for a 60 second superbowl ad. 10 million for 60 seconds. Wowsa.

Bloomberg's billionaire class are way more anti Bernie and anti Warren than they are anti Trump. They are literally the billionaire class seeking to control the constraints a Democracy could impose on them. Things like taxes, environmental regulations, accountability for too to fail hindsight. They were the cause of that and they not only didn't suffer, they thrived and grew even bigger.

Cole, I should have added that while I respect his commitment I would rather see someone who isn't a billionaire run for President.
His comment about even if he isn't the nominee he would put 1b of skin in the game may well be put to the test.
We shall see.

Bloomberg isn't even in the two percent range despite dropping millions already.

He should just give Trump a billion to pull out.

Heard that.

Speaking of that, doesn't Trump still have a young child? I see him and his poor wife wandering around together, but haven't seen his son since the election?

Dad of the year award too?

Trump beat Junior for not wearing a suit to a baseball game. Not exactly father of the year material. B-boy is better off in hiding.

Id definitely prefer a real self-made billionaire with actual civic leadership experience, over the insecure trust fund baby..... in reality he represents everything that the original voters said they liked about Trump.... but has experience and isnt a self absorbed asshole. But they wont vote for him because he wont have an elephant sticker.... and another reason.

Do you actually believe Trump isn't taking bribes? lol

All these gun control measures one day, then a meeting with the head of the NRA and not another word is said? COB. Cash on the barrel head.

Bloomberg's campaign snowballs to 1,000 staffers and counting
An aide said the behemoth organization will "continue to grow in the weeks and months to come."

This. I think we're on the verge of seeing the class interests of the Dem establishment laid bare as they try to destroy their own candidate to preserve their privilege.
