[Mike is acting like he can provide all those things, but he only has $50 billion. What he claims to be able to distribute will be closer to $50 trillion (over ten years).]
Good observations.
But, in order to win as a Dem, he’s got to scoop up the giveaway crazies, and that requires a lot of spending promises.
I think you’re right... no chance to be the Dem candidate. Maybe if he had started out on stage earlier, he might have had a chance, but how was he to know how the clown-car that is the current group would shape up through the first five debates? It’s going to be tough to build momentum for any new entrant. Look at the Obama-endorsed Deval’s first rally, where three ... count ‘em.... three people showed up.
One of the things that never gets mentioned is that Bloomberg allowed homeless creep. During his first admin, they started coming back to the usual areas - Penn Station, Grand Central, Times Square, etc. Not one newspaper said a thing but I was again dodging these freaks. Also, he didn’t lift a finger to help the business owners during the horrific Occupy New York event in Zuccotti Park.
Fiscally conservative he might have been but he was lib to the core. A very fake Republican during that first term. He also violated the third term limitations through a corrupt city council.
Bad, nasty man.
Why would liberals, who hate billionaires vote for one? Bloomberg runs, watch for another Jill Stein to emerge.
