Bloomberg is reportedly worth $50b. He has been cleaning house at Bloomberg LP, reportedly in preparation to sell the business. I expect he will spend at least $10b, if necessary in 2020. What that buys in media and GOTV terms should be a sight to behold. Can he win the Democratic the way he won the NY mayoralty, by paying for endorsements? It will be interesting to see if he becomes the first presidential candidate to crack $1b in spending during the primary process.
No worries. A true democrat is always ready and willing to prostitute out his views and morals for advancement.
Will he be the 1st openly queer president?
Eyes on the prize. Now or never?
Bloomy doesn’t want to drop a cool billion just to be a spoiler in the Ross Perot role.
“He also defended his mayoral administration’s policy of stopping people on the street to search them for guns, a police tactic that predominantly affected black and Latino men”
Yeah, it “affected black and Latino men” by saving their lives, something the NY Times attaches no importance to compared to their SJW victim Olympics agenda!
Hmmm. Guess new lower barricades will be needed so he can see over them?
LOL. It would be just great to have him flood the field with money and, hopefully, actually win the nomination. All the radical Communists and people of color who think its “their turn” would be outraged. A rich white guy took their place. And if he loses, he’ll have blown a couple hundred million that he otherwise would have spent on gun control. So to me, this is a real “win win.”
He won’t run, he doesn’t have the Chutzpa to handle the an*l exam he would get from the other Dem employed op research folks. Remember, the dossier was a Dem paid for hit piece, he’s next.
Inadvertently pasted a chunk of NYT promotional blurb, so here’s a little more excerpt, for anyone interested, about Bloomberg’s skepticism re the #MeToo and #BelieveHer movements, as pertains to Charlie Rose:
[“The stuff I read about is disgraceful — I don’t know how true all of it is,” Mr. Bloomberg said of the #MeToo movement. Raising Mr. Rose unprompted, he said: “We never had a complaint, whatsoever, and when I read some of the stuff, I was surprised]
NYT decoder ring: “Run as a Republican so the Democrats don’t have to spend money fighting you”
He spends $10B he will lose $10B. No way will he win. I lived under this jackass when he was Mayor, and it was like living in a mini North Korea except with food, but only food the Dear Leader Bloomberg allowed you to eat. There’s too many people this guy reamed over for him to win, all the small businesses he fined into bankruptcy. A friend of mine owned a small newstand/stationary store, and once a month Herr Bloombergs brownshirt “inspectors” would come in an fine the crap out of him for the most mundane garbage, like cash register display not 7”from the counter, cigarette display not the correct distance, all $1000 fines and the guy made peanuts as it is.
I remember one time he had his brownshirts fining hotdog stand vendors $1000 if they did not produce their license immediately, the guy actually put a time limit on it. What was the time limit? 2 seconds? The NY Post did a story on it. And then the nanny state crap, F you pal I’ll eat and drink what I want.
Just before I moved he wanted landlords to submit a list to the city of all their tenants who smoke. For what? Was he going to arrest them? The guy was out of control. Oh yes, and every parade, every special event The Dear Leader Bloomturd had to be front and center. Yankees win the World series, he had to be in the front car waving to people, this after the Dear Leader did away with term limits because Emperors must rule forever.
The guy was an immense brat, I remember one time he banned motor scooters claiming it caused global warming. Motor scooters, not trucks or cars, motor scooters. So then people started using electric ones and out of spite he banned those too. And then the congestion pricing. He wanted to charge cars if they drove below 96th street to reduce traffice but the city council turned him down. So out of spite he cut all the streets in half with bike and bus lanes making traffic a million times worse, he even closed entire streets permanently. Trump will destroy him with all that info, and BTW by 2020 Bloomturd will be almost 80. So if he does two terms we’re going to have a POTUS who is almost 90.
Today’s Democrat party is not particularly fond of old white guys. So my advice to Bloomie: Self-identify as an Hispanic woman. And don’t waste any time. Start today.
P.S. Don’t agree to any DNA tests. Remember what happened to Liz Warren.
I pray he runs. Nothing would do more to make Jewish liberals face up to the rabid anti-Semitism within their own party. Bloomberg is a typical non religious New York Jewish liberal. When the radicals start calling him anti-semitic names, they won’t be able to dismiss it by saying that he’s some kind of right wing Likudnik. All of these apostates who think being Jewish means eating bagels at Zabar’s and going to Woody Allen movies will see how much their fellow leftists despise them for their Jewish blood.
....see if he has to explain his 3 aircraft,several boats and 13 properties...
Bloomberg spent $100,000,000 buying support from Dems running in 2018. He expects a return on that money.
His Stop and Frisk advocacy will be his Achilles’ Heel.
Once a Rat always a democRat.
Hillary doesn’t want to run against Bernie Sanders:
NYT runs sexism piece on Sanders.
(”Women on his campaign staff were having their curly hair felt, with their permission, by someone Sanders never met!!”)
.
Hillary doesn’t want to run against Bloomberg:
NYT runs sexism + racism piece on Bloomberg.
(He asked “What’s #MeToo all about?”!
His policies impacted blacks and Latinos!)
So, who’s next, NYT?
though the choice was either this slug or obammy I’m ashamed i actually voted for this clown I wouldn’t have a beer with in real life.
I sure hope bullies beat this guy up while he was in school
Bloomberg will get about as far with the Democrats as Jeb did with the Republicans.
The ONLY OPTION for Bloomberg, if he’s serious, is to run Third Party, but then who will he pull votes from? My answer is the Democrats, given how whacked out they are...and that is providing that Trump doesn’t double-cross us, such as on immigration.
So then Bloomberg must ask: Does he want to be the SPOILER who sends Trump to the White House for ANOTHER 4 years?
