Bernie’s supporters will LOVE to vote for a Racist Billionaire after getting screwed out of the nomination for the second straight election.

Tone deaf.

Friedman is the guy who wishes the govt was more like Red China’s. No messy constitutional roadblocks to keep the govt from doing the right thing for the People.

Communism for thee not me Bloomberg is no moderate, he is a totalitarian authoritarian. All of the Democrats running have some anti-American similarities to Bloomberg and they would gladly destroy our nation’s sovereignty just like he would.

To coin a famous saying....”what difference does it make whether Sanders loses big time to Trump or MiniMike loses big time to Trump?

Calm down Krugman.

The democrats are united in their hatred of the billionaire, old white Republican dude in the White House.

So they will nominate Bloomberg to defeat him. You know, the billionaire, old white former Republican dude.

There is nothing moderate in any way about a candidate so totalitarian that they actually try to go so far as to dictate what food you are allowed to buy when you stop to eat.

“Why any media outlet would keep such a flake writer on its staff is beyond comprehension”

because he’s guaranteed to write the kind of tripe that their subscribers love and expect?

The anguish of globalist leftists like Friedman is palpable. They fear a rout so complete that America will be fundamentally “transformed”. Trump will have possibly three appointees to the Supreme Court and no trouble having them approved.

Yet when the Democratic Party veered so far left to openly embrace socialism, open borders,bizarre identity politics, defiance and neglect of existing Federal law, and the destruction of American heritage, privileged leftists like Friedman said absolutely nothing. Nor did he object when there was a plot to rig a Presidential election and then harass a duly elected President constantly with phony charges.

Let them trot out Bloomberg and watch the Democratic Party combust.

Krugmann outdid him though, by claiming that Bernie only plays a socialist on TV, he really isn’t

Bad week for Friedman. First his rock star ChioCom red leadership has China on lock down because of the pandemic leaking from their bio weapon lab. Now his boy Bloomberg is getting savaged as a racist for the stop and frisk policies Freidman hated.

The Donald’s curse that he placed on the NYT op ed writers is really fun to watch.

If the Democrats nominate a Rockefeller Republican like Bloomberg it bodes ill for their future.

And Bloomberg is a smart missile aimed right at Trump..
