The mainstream media went all-in on shaming former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg over allegedly spreading "disinformation" that was meant to overtly lampoon his Democratic rivals, crickets included.
During Wednesday night's Democratic debate, Bloomberg was the target of several attacks, but the moment he touted his own business background had his opponents speechless.
"Maybe you want to talk about businesses. I think I'm the only one here who ever started a business, is that fair?" Bloomberg looked over at his opponents, none of whom responded.
A moment later, Bloomberg quipped, "OK," and carried on with his remarks.

this edit is a lie. bloombergs video shows he asks if anyone else on stage has started a business and a full 20 seconds pass in silence.
in reality, bloomberg kept talking after a second and the rest let him.

Why did you alter the video like this? Are you so ashamed of your terrible performance that you feel the need to lie and create propaganda? Elizabeth Warren destroyed you like the scumbag racist billionaire you are. Just take the L, Bloombefg.— Eugene Gu, MD (@eugenegu) February 20, 2020
It was hilarious but obviously edited. Don’t think it will resonate.
It helps reinforce the point that the socialist on stage don’t have a clue on what is good for the economy.
The Democratic Party liars complaining about fakes?
These are the idiots flying around in private planes, owning multiple houses and complaining about “climate change”.
Now _that is what I call fakes!
Liars gotta lie. I understand that. But you have to admit, that was a neat piece of propaganda there.
Fake Russia collusion for 2 years...
No recent Democrat Presidents have "started a business". You'd have to go back as far as Truman, and he never really had any success at it. It's just not what Democrats do, and Bloomberg wasn't a Democrat when he was doing it! He keeps reminding Democrats that he is (or WAS) more LIKE Trump than they are. Unlike Mike, Trump has remained steady in his belief that capitalism and rule of law are part of what makes America Great, while Bloomberg sold out his beliefs for power.
If Mike wants to succeed as a Democrat, he needs to reject every thing that made him successful. Just as he has renounced his only success as Mayor of NY, he needs to renounce his success in business. His wealth is evil. His Businesses are evil. Capitalism is evil. He is not going to win over the Dem Base as "Trump Lite".
It is like when Trump posted a pic of him Stallone s body’s. Obviously doctored. They spread actual misinformation all day about the President, but funny memes is what gets them upset?
Thing is - the substance of the video is correct - no one else at the debates had ever started a business. Funny how this coverage keeps reinforcing Bloomberg’s basic point. They think it’s about packaging, when the issue is factual.
Bloomberg is considered “centrist” - even Clint Eastwood likes him?
Bloomberg?
The guy who recently announced that the elderly should not have medical care but should just go home and enjoy death??
Bloomberg tips the hand of where government healthcare goes and Crazy Bernie tips the hand of where the Delusional leftist Dems want to go.
Bloomberg?? vs. Crazy Bernie??? Trump’s dream team.
The whole Democrat Party has gone off the deep end.
2020 Trump Landslide.
Nanny Bloomie is a Rooskie Asset?
“The Democratic Party liars complaining about fakes?”
Well-stated.
Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin were revolutionaries. they were not businessmen, economists, or entrepreneurs. it shows in their policies. he has a point but his arrogance and anti 2A stances make him a bad person.
