Got a spare $10 million? Then you too can reverse the votes of 62 million Americans, all by using your money.
That’s the spectacle we are seeing with these unprecedented Tom Steyer television ads, calling on Americans to sign his petition to impeach President Trump. Who knows how many times the sound has been turned down across the 50 states that can’t otherwise get out of hearing this when he comes on?
Steyer’s also planning to spend millions on digital media, and already his ads are turning up on Skype. Every night we hear these ads, a sound-bite fest of phony claims about Trump hating the Constitution, threatening free speech, obstructing justice, and the like, none of which is true, accompanied with the exhortation to go join Tom and sign his petition.
Now he’s got more than a million signatures – 1,119,720, to be exact – according to what must be his buddies at Axios, given that they got the number.
The campaign lasted ten days. Ten days to disenfranchise 62 million voters through legal maneuvers, despite not having anything like their numbers. Fortune has the story here.

Steyer is famous for his insanely absolutist environmentalism and the cash he shoves into that cause. He famously put the squeeze with his money on President Obama, who shut down the Keystone XL pipeline, all at his whim. Obama paid no attention to the economics of that decision; he just paid attention to his campaign donor.
That deprived tens of thousands of Americans of jobs. But it probably put the idea into his head that the views of one billionaire always outweigh the sentiment and interests of the Little People, and that is the pattern he is showing right now with these ads.
Steyer also put a lot of money into green energy schemes, many of which are ultimately subsidized by the government. It’s a good deal for him, but given the lack of viability of green energy, it does nothing but finance rich men’s playthings like electric cars and wind farm turbines.
He’s emblematic of the Bay Area mentality in that he loves choking environmental regulations. Those regulations drive up the prices of homes, keeping affordable housing from ever being built in America’s bluest cities, with the ultimate aim of keeping the riffraff (common people) out.
He also has a problem with common people having cars and independent transport, given his loathing for affordable conventional energy. He would have any of us not as rich as he is taking the bus (run by angry, zero-customer-service $100,000-a-year union employees) instead of driving.
He’d further impoverish ordinary Americans by allowing unchecked illegal immigration into the country, driving wages down. His contributions to the open borders lobby are substantial, according to Wikipedia. There’s no doubt about it: the commissar mentality in this rich liberal is strong.
Now he hates Trump and wants to disenfranchise tens of millions of ordinary people who think otherwise. He’s got $10 million to blow on this and probably much more after that. He also isn’t ruling out running for president himself. Who knows if he will succeed in either endeavor? The fact that he would try sets a creepy precedent for democracy itself and where it’s headed.

Isn’t it time the person running the Democrats from California came out and ranted in public instead of hiding behind the designated front . There must be a reason why the former hedge fund manager
is content to blow money on hopeless causes . It must be a challenge for control personalities to watch others consistently fail while wasting money .
Steyer running in 2020 ? Is there any doubt .
Tom Steyer’s money would be better spent helping the poor elderly in Great Britain who can’t afford to heat their homes because the climate change movement has made electricity so expensive. It would be better used helping the 330,000 households in Germany who have had their power cut off because they can’t afford the elevated cost caused by supporting the climate change agenda.
Climate alarmist advocate that people who burn fossil fuels should pay for the cost of releasing carbon dioxide. This is fine because there is no cost, since CO2 is not impacting the climate. Now what about the same concept of the climate activists paying for the impact of their policies on the poor.
Could this action of Steyers be construed as interfering with the election result? Wake up America, the world is watching.
If A**HOLE Steyers is interfering with the result of the election,
Shouldn’t an independent prosecutor investigation be launched ?
Complete with midnight no-knock search warrant raids ?
IF NOT
Someone tell me the justification of the Mueller prosecution which has produced nothing but embarassment for Mr. Mueller and the entire
