Billionaire Tom Steyer quits Democratic primary race

Tom Steyer, the California activist billionaire who has largely been a nonfactor in the Democratic primary campaign, dropped out of the race on Saturday night.
Steyer's departure came after a disappointing finish in the South Carolina Democratic primary. With 70 percent of the vote in, Steyer had just 11.5 percent of the vote — despite spending millions of dollars on campaigning there.
"There’s no question today that this campaign, we were disappointed with where we came out," Steyer told supporters in Columbia, S.C.
"But I said if I didn’t see a path to winning that I'd suspend my campaign, and honestly I can't see a path where I can win the presidency."

He is a sincere and good person and put his own money where his mouth is. He worked to get the fucking moron impeached and put a ton of money into this effort when no one else did. I respect that!
He could use his money much more wisely, for example by funding a liberal-minded national news network to combat the fake news of the Faux network. Getting Democratic candidates elected to the Senate should be his urgent goal, if he's still willing to part with more cash after this.
.. and it's THE main reason Chump gets a hard pass from the news media. They're all getting rich off Chump, and that's why this nonsense will continue until the gravy train stops.
