WHY OUT-OF-STATE BILLIONAIRES HAVE GOTTEN BEHIND THIS DEMOCRAT IN FLORIDA

 

    HEDGE FUND BILLIONAIRE TOM STEYER LIVES IN SAN FRANCISCO, NEARLY 3000 MILES AWAY FROM THE TALLAHASSEE HOME OF ANDREW GILLUM, THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE IN FLORIDA GOVERNOR'S RACE. IF GILLUM WERE TO WIN THE RACE AGAINST RON DESANTIS NEXT TUESDAY, STEYER WOULD NOT DIRECTLY BENEFIT FROM ANY OF THE BILLS GILLUM WOULD SIGN OR CAUSES HE WOULD CHAMPION.

 

    ... STEYER, WHO IS WORTH $1.6 BILLION, HAS GIVEN $7.2 MILLION TO POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEES THAT SUPPORT GILLUM, PLUS ANOTHER $2.8 MILLION DIRECTLY TO HIS CAMPAIGN. AND HE IS NOT ALONE. TWO OTHER OUT-OF-STATE BILLIONAIRES AND FREQUENT POLITICAL DONORS, MICHAEL BLOOMBERG, WORTH $46.1 BILLION, AND GEORGE SOROS, WORTH $8.3 BILLION, HAVE ALSO PUT MUSCLE - AND MONEY - INTO THE RACE IN SUPPORT OF GILLUM, WITH BLOOMBERG DONATING $250,000 AND SOROS  & HIS SON, ALEX, DONATING ABOUT $1.25 MILLION.

 

    STEYER'S SUPPORT COMES AS PART OF A NATIONWIDE EFFORT TO ELECT DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES. HE'S SPENDING $110 MILLION TO DO SO, ALL WHILE TOURING THE COUNTRY GATHERING SUPPORT FOR HIS CALL TO IMPEACH THE PRESIDENT. BLOOMBERG MADE A SIMILAR COMMITMENT, PROMISING TO SPEND $80 MILLION TO HELP ELECT DEMOCRATS ON NOVEMBER 6.

 

    GILLUM - ... IS A PROGRESSIVE CANDIDATE WHO CURRENTLY SERVES AS THE MAYOR OF TALLAHASEE. THE FIRST BLACK GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE FOR MAINSTREAM PARTY IN FLORIDA'S HISTORY, GILLUM, WHO IS ONLY 39, IS RUNNING ON A LIBERAL PLATFORM, ENDORSING $15 MINIMUM WAGE GUN CONTROL, CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM, SINGLE-PAYER HEALTH CARE FOR ALL AND RAISING THE CORPORATE TAX RATE TO FUND EDUCATION....

 

    GILLUM IS RUNNING AN UNAPOLOGETICALLY PROGRESSIVE CAMPAIGN - SOMETHING THAT LIBERALS IN OTHER STATES, AND LIBERAL DONORS, HOPES WILL RESULT IN A LARGER AND MORE ENTHUSIASTIC ELECTORATE, AND THUS SET AN EXAMPLE FOR FUTURE CAMPAIGNS. IT'S A STRATEGY THAT SOME DEMOCRATS HAVE ADOPTED SINCE THE 2016 ELECTION, DURING WHICH THEY NOTICED THAT PASSION OF BERNIE SANDERS' SUPPORTERS....

 

    GEORGE SOROS HAS ALSO BEEN A VOCAL SUPPORTER OF PROGRESSIVE CANDIDATES; IN FACT, GILLUM AND SOROS FIRST MET A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN SOROS'S OPEN SOCIETY FOUNDATION FUNDED A NETWORK OF YOUNG PROGRESSIVE OFFICIALS THAT GILLUM HAD HELPED TO FOUND....

 

    DESANTIS ALSO HAS HIS OWN BILLIONAIRE BACKER IN FLORIDA RESIDENT ISAAC PERLMUTTER, THE CEO OF MARVEL ENTERTAINMENT: HE'S WORTH AN ESTIMATED $4.5 BILLION. PERMUTTER AND HIS WIFE, LAURA, HAVE DONATED $3.5 MILLION TO DESANTIS' CAMPAIGN... THE FACT THAT DESANTIS IS SO ALIGNED WITH TRUMP IS EXACTLY WHAT APPEALED TO THE PEARLMUTTERS...

 

    THIS ELECTION FOR FLORIDA' GOVERNOR IS POISED TO BRING IN RECORD-BREAKING AMOUNTS OF MONEY, SAYS DEBRA CLEAVER, THE CEO OF NONPARTISAN AND NONPROFIT

VOTE.ORG. SHE PREDICTS OVER $100 MILLION WILL BE SPENT ON THE GUBERNATORIAL RACE. ...

P.S. CAN YOU IMAGINE HOW DIFFERENT AND HEALTHIER AMERICA WOULD BE IF WE HAD THREE BILLIONAIRES LIKE THE ABOVE SUPPORT PRO-LIFE FINANCIALLY IN AMERICA? PLANNED PARENTHOOD WOULD BE EXPOSED AND NOT ONE PENNY FROM OUR TAXES WOULD BE FINANCING THEIR AGENDA, WHICH HAS INCLUDED SELLING BABY PARTS.

    THE NATION WOULD RECOGNIZE THE WISDOM THAT GOD'S LAW IS THE FOUNDATION ON WHICH THIS NATION WAS FOUNDED.
