Heard an add for Bloomberg and they used the term independent, at least I could swear that's what I heard. Could this happen? Who would it impact more?

if it was the same ad I saw it was talking about being independent from special interest money. Unless something has changed that I haven't heard, he's still running for the Democrat ticket.

Bloomberg said he’d spend $1B of his own to stop a Trump re-election.

He seems to think spending = votes.
In reality, spending has hugely diminishing returns when it comes to votes.

Im convinced they threatened to kill Howard Shultz or stage a massive Starbucks boycott or something when he wanted to run independent. I had followed his FB page and the vitriol on his potential independent run was off the charts.

It would impact President Trump. The leftists who vote for the party of sodomy, sharia, and socialism aren’t going to be swayed to vote for a Jewish Billionaire in any significant numbers. He might peel off a few Warren buffet types, but his real appeal is to Bush republicans.

He’s trying to brand himself as an Independent who happens to have a D next to his name. Smart move if you ask me.
