Actually that would be $1.52 to each citizen...Almost $1.53..

Yes fuzzy math, hear it and regurgitate, keep pushing the narrative,
don't think for yourself..the media will tell you what to think....

HAAA..... non-stop dummies .... New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay and MSNBC anchor Brian Williams were doing a TV interview ....

Gay: Somebody tweeted recently that, actually, with the money Bloomberg spent, he could’ve given every American a million dollars.

Williams: We got it. Let’s put it up.

Gay: Yeah.

Williams: When I read it tonight on social media, it kind of all became clear. [Reads tweet]: “Bloomberg spent $500 million on ads. The U.S. population is 327 million.” [To viewing audience]: “Don’t tell us if you’re ahead of us on the math.” [Resumes reading tweet]: “He could’ve given each American $1 million and still had money left over.” [To Gay]: “It’s an incredible way of putting it.”

Gay: It’s an incredible way of putting it. It’s true…

Typical journalistic logic. If they say it quick enough and often enough, then some of the slower ones will believe it.
