Thank you, sir. Appreciate your patience.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hello, Rush. It\u2019s a great pleasure to talk to you, and mega dittos and prayers to you. I\u2019ve been listening to you since 1992 when I found you in Dallas, and thank you so much for all the knowledge and entertainment that you provided over the years.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you, sir, very much. I know it\u2019s been a lot. I appreciate your comments. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: The other day I heard about Mike Bloomberg offering a hundred million dollars of his money to try and take Florida. And I wonder why it is that he would be doing that? You know, I know you gotta follow the money, so I thought I would give you a call and see if you know why &#8211; what\u2019s in it for him? What is he gonna gain from spending all that money and having a Democrat elected?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-328073\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/APP-111119-Bloomberg.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/APP-111119-Bloomberg.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/APP-111119-Bloomberg-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, it\u2019s an interesting question. You know, you\u2019re actually very, very prescient here. The reason that &#8212; it\u2019s twofold. Right now the Trump campaign is really outpacing Biden in money given by small donors. The reason why that\u2019s important is that it shows enthusiasm. These are people that are giving less than 200 bucks. And it\u2019s largely people who, that\u2019s the max they have to give, 25, 50, 150, 200, that\u2019s it. They are doing everything they can to come up with as much as they can give. But it isn\u2019t much when compared to people like Bloomberg spending a hundred million.<\/p>\n<p>The reason why this is something that politicians envy is because it indicates mass enthusiasm. And Trump is outscoring Biden in this fundraising method. I mean, he\u2019s just swamping him with it. But Biden is leading in massive amounts of donations like the Bloomberg hundred million dollars. That\u2019s largely corporate. There\u2019s also a game being played. There\u2019s an outfit out there that is bundling contributions but not identifying the people who are making them, in favor of Biden, and it\u2019s leading people to believe that some chicanery is going on.<\/p>\n<p>The reason why Bloomberg would be doing this &#8212; I know you\u2019re gonna have trouble believing this &#8212; it\u2019s vanity. It is A, it\u2019s to counter whatever upside Trump has with all of those small donors. But it\u2019s also the fact that Bloomberg simply can\u2019t believe that Trump was able to do what Bloomberg can\u2019t, and that\u2019s get elected president. And so Bloomberg, a hundred million dollars to Michael Bloomberg is like 50 bucks to you. It\u2019s chump change, really, when you get down to it, the number of billions that he\u2019s got.<\/p>\n<p>So this is simply he\u2019s able to run in and drop this amount of money in Florida in the singular hope that he can defeat Trump. That\u2019s what this represents. Because he\u2019s jealous, because he\u2019s envious. There\u2019s so much of that at this level of the game that these guys play.<\/p>\n<p>Every effort they\u2019ve engaged in to get rid of Trump has bombed out. They\u2019re getting frustrated. So Bloomberg\u2019s dropping a hundred million in the state of Florida hoping to take it out of play. If he does, then the election\u2019s over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: A hundred million dollars to Michael Bloomberg is like 50 bucks to you.
