Well, of course, what he’s saying isn’t far from the truth about urban crime in the U.S., it’s not exactly what you need to say if you want to be the Democratic nominee for president. Bloomberg is simultaneously the most likely Dem to appeal to independent & swing voters... and among the least likely Dems to rally the base. I have to think that there’s a ceiling to his support. I just can’t imagine someone who’s supporting Bernie or Liz right now switching over to Bloomie. Sure, a few of ‘em might say, “Well, Bloomie ain’t my cup of tea, but he’s better than Trump.” Most of ‘em, though, will just stay home.
“Well, of course, what he’s saying isn’t far from the truth about urban crime in the U.S.”
A classic gaffe. A truth told entirely accidentally by a politician.
