“A president, or a leader should be out front, to answer questions, or present a plan.
But has he had any press conferences ?- no, he remains aloof,
and stays in his private mansion, coming out only while surrounded by adoring sycophants.
Aloof and arrogance are his main attributes; his money got him this far,
he compels dictatorial compliance, rather than participation in discussion and compromise.”

Great points, all of which support the proposition that Bloomturd is fundamentally unqualified for the Presidency because he has a total contempt for America, all voters, and the basic democratic process itself. It takes massive, pure evil gall just to try to go out and buy the Presidency.

The Bloomberg numbers are proof that 9% of Dummycrats are easily brainwashed by TV.

In America, TV programs you!

“What plateau? Bloomberg started at 3%. He’s now at 9%.”

I look at trends, not individual polls. The polling on him can’t be trusted much yet, it’s all over the lot. Lately he hasn’t been moving up like before. But like I said, he’s the most underestimated candidate right now.

Battle of the NY billionaire’s, now wouldn’t that be something?

Bloomy will rocket to the top, soon, and he will make many Dems mad when that happens.

The former candidates will use passive-aggressive actions against him as he wins actual primaries.

He will be yet another old white person screwing over all the others.

He’s actually a chameleon. He’s a liberal, he’s a republican, he’s an independent, back to liberal. Changes like the weather.

His ads so far have one theme, he’ll beat Trump. Haven’t heard him say anything else.

tina07 :" His ads so far have one theme, he’ll beat Trump.

That's his sole plan and platform.
He'll buy the vote by extreme advertising.
By seeing what other candidates are espousing,
he'll see what the polls say will get him elected.
At that point, there is a return to old style politics and returns to: "Promise them anything,.. and once elected,.. ignore them".

The "Nanny State" mentality that he exudes appeals to the 'gun control' crowd,
and the 30 second sound byte, ill-informed electorate,
and the Progressives/Socialists who want to run the world, their way, with power.
He is one of them !

Biden is in first place because he was VP from the last Democrat administration so it’s “his turn”. He would have had that turn in 2016, but he decided not to run.

Look at modern history:

Nixon was Eisenhower’s VP, so he got to run in 1960.
Johnson was JFK’s VP, so he got to run in 1964.
Nixon lost his turn to run in 1964 since he had lost in 1960.
Humphrey was Johnson’s VP, so he got to run in 1968.
Nixon got his turn back and ran in 1968.
In 1972, Humphrey had lost so they ran McGovern.
Ford was Nixon’s VP (and President), so he ran in 1976.
Humphrey chose not to run so they ran Carter.
Ford had lost in 1976, so Reagan got the nod in 1980.
Mondale was Carter’s VP, so he got to run in ‘84
Bush SR was Reagan’s VP, so he got to run in 1988.
Mondale had lost in 1984, so Dukakis got to run in 1988
Mondale chose not to run, so they Clinton in ‘92
Bush sr had lost in 1992, so they ran Dole in ‘96.
Gore was Clinton’s VP, so he got to run in 2000.
Gore had lost in 2000 so they ran Kerry in 2004.
Cheney declined to run in 2008, so McCain got the nod
Gore didn’t run in 2008, so Obama got the nod.
Cheney still declined in 2012, so Romney got the nod.
Cheney still declined in 1026, so Trump got the nod.
Biden chose not to run in 2016, so Clinton got the nod.

History shows it’s Biden’s turn if he wants it.

In fact, if Biden does not win the nomination, it will be the first time in 80 years that the VP of a party’s most recent administration did not get the nomination if he wanted it, unless he had already been nominated, and had lost.

If I had a lot of money, I would put that picture of Mike Mini-me on billboards in a 100 cities. That is classic!

Yep, that’s the same here in New York. When I lived in New York city and Bloomberg first ran for Mayor which I believe was the early 2000s, he actually bought VHS tapes for every resident in the city at the time, something like 7 million, and on the VHS tape was a commercial explaining why Bloomberg should be Mayor. This on top of the constant commercials for him already on TV.

I really hope people don’t fall for his BS this time around, when he was Mayor it was like a mini North Korea with him as the “Dear Leader”. Everything revolved around “The Dear Leader”. Every parade, every event, every sports win, the “Dear Leader” had to be front and center and every Monday the “Dear Leader” would issue his edicts on what was banned. Stuff banned for absolutely no read. For example one week he decreed that motor scooters be banned “to combat global warming”. So when that happened, people started riding electric scooters instead and he went ahead and banned those as well! Why? Who knows? Spite?
