Description | Mike Bloomberg forcefully sought to rebut charges from his fellow Democratic presidential candidates that he is attempting to leverage his immense wealth to buy the 2020 election, suggesting the self-financing of his campaign renders him immune from the tugs of special interests.
“I'm not buying any more — I'm doing exactly the same thing they're doing, except that I am using my own money,” he told “CBS This Morning” in an interview that aired Friday. “They're using somebody else’s money, and those other people expect something from them. Nobody gives you money if they don't expect something, and I don't want to be bought.” |
