The Unbearable Arrogance of Being Mike Bloomberg
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 02/17/2020 6:47:52 AM PST by EyesOfTX

There is nothing small about Mini-Mike’s ego. As the billionaire oligarch continues his attempt at a leveraged buyout of the Democrat Party and its presidential nomination, there is no bigger factor getting in his way than his own unbearable arrogance. Let’s go through the highlights of what we have heard from the former Mayor of New York City in just the past week:

Stop and Frisk – A week ago today, video leaked of a 2015 speech in which Bloomberg, then 3 years removed from his final day as Mayor, bragged to an audience in the starkest, and most racist of terms about the “stop and frisk” policy he employed in the city’s minority neighborhoods:

Donald Trump Jr. ✔ @DonaldJTrumpJr Omg! Leaked audio of Mike Bloomberg talking about the high crime rates among urban minorities.

“And the way to get the guns out of the kids hands is to throw them up against the wall and frisk them” #BloombergIsARacist

That video gave us, in part, this infamous quote:

So, one of the unintended consequences is people say ‘Oh my God, you are arresting kids for marijuana that are all minorities.’ Yes, that’s true. Why? Because we put all the cops in minority neighborhoods. Yes, that’s true. Why do we do it? Because that’s where all the crime is.

And look, the way you get the guns out of the kids’ hands is to throw them up against the walls and frisk them.

Lovely.

Bloomberg’s hostile workplace for women. – In a February 15 piece – that it very interestingly chose not to hide behind its famous pay wall – The Washington Post detailed Bloomberg’s years of dealing with dozens of lawsuits field by female employees over the hostile workplace he created and maintained at his computer and media operations.

The piece, which is at least 3,000 words long, goes into great detail about Bloomberg’s demeaning treatment of women in his workplaces, a pattern that apparently went on for decades. Here is just one of the examples of Mini-Mike’s brutish behavior detailed in the article:

Garrison complaint 89. On April 11, 1995 at approximately 11:20 a.m., Bloomberg was having a photograph taken with two female Company salespeople and a group of N.Y.U. Business School students, in the company snack area. When Bloomberg noticed Garrison standing nearby, he asked, “Why didn’t they ask you to be in the picture? I guess they saw your face.” Continuing his penchant for ridiculing recently married women in his employ, Bloomberg asked plaintiff, “How’s married life? You married?” Plaintiff responded that her marriage was great and was going to get better in a few months: that she was pregnant, and the baby was due the following September. He responded to her “Kill it!” Plaintiff asked Bloomberg to repeat himself, and again he said, “Kill it!” and muttered, “Great! Number 16!” suggesting to plaintiff his unhappiness that sixteen women in the Company had maternity-related status. Then he walked away.

Good grief. Liberal women are defending this guy?

But wait, there’s more!

Mini-Mike promotes death panels! – Here is Bloomberg explaining to a family how he would reduce healthcare costs by just sentencing the elderly to death:

Roscoe B Davis🎖⭐️⭐️⭐️ @RoscoeBDavis1 .@MikeBloomberg explaining how healthcare will bankrupt us, unless we deny care to the elderly.

“If you show up with cancer & you’re 95 yrs old, we should say, there’s no cure, we can’t do anything.

A young person, we should do something. Society’s not willing to do that, yet.”

All of these costs keep going up. Nobody wants to pay anymore money. And at the rate we’re going healthcare is going to bankrupt us. So not only do we have a problem we’ve got to sit here and say which things we’re going to do and which things we’re not. Nobody wants to do that. If you show up with prostrate cancer and you’re 95 years old, we should say go and enjoy, you’ve had a long life, there’s no cure and we can’t do anything. If you’re a young person, we should do something about it. Society’s not willing to do that, yet.”

I swear I don’t make this stuff up – who could?

Oh, but that’s not all!

Bloomberg on how farmers lack “grey matter.” – Today, we have the leak of this video in which Mini-Mike – who has likely never stepped foot on an actual farm in his entire life – tells an audience that he personally could teach anyone how to be a farmer, and expounds on how the tech industry requires the “grey matter” that farmers apparently lack:

James Woods ✔ @RealJamesWoods Well, the hard-working American farmers and machinists mocked by diminutive billionaire #MichaelBloomberg for being bereft of “grey matter” may have a few thoughts walking into the voting booth this November. #MiniMike

Embedded video 25.2K 2:55 AM - Feb 17, 2020 Twitter Ads info and privacy 11.9K people are talking about this I swear I don’t make this stuff up, folk. Honestly, who could?

Yet, despite all of this unbearable arrogance, the unbridled hubris this small man puts on display pretty much every day of the week, liberal women and men stand ready, willing and most certainly able to sell their souls – and their favorite political party – to this despicable human being.

Democrats: If they didn’t already exist, no one in their right mind would ever dream of inventing them.

That is all.

I find the one with John “Cougar” Mellankamp to be particularly obnoxious. It panders to all the little people in flyover country; pickup truck driving, deplorables. You know, those people who poke seeds in the ground, cover them up, and water.

Agreed. But to watch kellyann slap him around is priceless.

The baby who would have been killed if his mother had taken Bloomberg’s advice will be 25 at the time of the election. I hope he or she will not be voting for Bloomberg even if he is the ‘Rat nominee.
