Guest Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Trump 2.0, just more "civilized" for the comfort of Democrats Right before Bloomberg was to speak, some music started playing which made Bloomberg freak out more than a little. The music was from a recorder owned by disabled reporter Michael Harris, who could not reach down and get to the recorder easily because hes in a wheelchair. The noise, which was not playing loudly enough for most other people in the room to notice, rattled Mr. Bloomberg. “Can we just stop this, and maybe we’ll start again?” Bloomberg asked. Christine C. Quinn, leaned over and whispered, “He’s disabled". Mr. Harris’s disability, and the fact that he was clearly having difficulty reaching the recorder to shut it off, was apparently of little consequence to the mayor. “I understand that — he can still turn it off,” Mr. Bloomberg was overheard saying. Bloomberg apparently kept looking at Harris while saying, "Maybe we should take everything outside." Harris was upset by the Mayor's behavior, saying he was “quite embarrassed at being singled out like that. I think the mayor took something very minor and made it into something major and was a very cheap shot at me. I do think an apology would be in order here."

But after that horrible debate, hopefully he will go down in the polls. But Bloomberg is spending more money on his campaign than all Democratic candidates + Trump combined.

Hes actually a Republican running as a Democrat, and Trump is a Democrat running as a Republican The same people who say they wont vote Sanders because hes not a real Democrat, are willing to vote for Bloomberg who is a Republican.

Lord Temptation 11,209 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 OMG they’re like twins. I guess the two-party system is the real winner: Which party doesn’t even matter. They are the two heads of the same beast! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly why Bernie needs to win and completely remake the Democratic party. Make the party actually serve the PEOPLE again rather than the wealthy and powerful.

I mean...he may choose to describe himself as a democrat by name, but in terms of policy positions and what he stands for I certainly DO NOT consider him left-wing on any metric of the imagination.

Democrat is a wide range. There are moderates and more conservative Democrats. I’m not voting for him, unless he’s the last person between Trump and a second term, but Bloomberg is a Democrat.
