Until our side learns to play by the rules of the DEMOCRATS, we will never be able to crush the Left.

In this case, I could less whether Bloomberg’s stop-and-frisk was a good idea or not (it certainly worked), what should matter to us, ONLY, is that the black community HATED the policy, and that gives us leverage (huge leverage) to weaken Bloomberg.

After Bloomberg is no longer a political threat to the country, then I have no issue in defending him or his policies. That’s how the Dems do it - when Bush Sr. died, they had nothing but great words for him. When he was in office, though, THEY DESPISED HIM, as much as they despise Trump, and they nearly drove Bush Sr. out of office over Iran-Contra.

The ‘moral high ground’ nearly cost us the country...we can, and should, go back to that, but only after DEFEATING the Democrats once and for all...and we are not there yet.

Problem is - this becomes the new GOP standard. Meaning searching more black people than non-blacks per capita is racist. We can defend Bloomberg and still damage him. The Democrats would point to our defense of his policies and call him a Democrat in name only.
