Last week, on the first day of early voting in North Carolina, over 700 people waited in torrential rain to attend a 7 a.m. event for billionaire Democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg. Among the attendees at Footnote Coffee in downtown Winston-Salem was 22-year-old Wake Forest undergrad Meredith Happy, who posted a Snapchat shortly after she walked into the event. The picture wasnt of any campaign signage, or even the candidate, but of a kingly spread of food that included quiches, smoked salmon with capers and chopped eggs, a fruit platter, cookies, and assorted pastries. She captioned the photo Daddy Bloomberg.
Ive never seen food at a political event, Happy said. And Ive been to a lot of them.
Judging by the all-you-can-eat feasts that have become a hallmark of Bloomberg events throughout the country.
Though the campaign ultimately wouldnt comment on how it chooses its food vendors, there is a clear pattern - cheesesteaks in Philly, Cuban sandwiches in Miami, barbecue in North Carolina - meant to signal to the voters that Mike Bloomberg is relatable, or at least knows what they eat, in much the same way candidates with lesser budgets appear on camera eating corn dogs in Iowa or stopping into Dunkin Donuts in New Hampshire.
And for some voters, that seems to be enough. In North Carolina, you have Eastern and Western barbecue sauce, and at this event you have both. Hes a uniter! said Millie Ravenel, a Raleigh resident who said that she was undecided before the event. She took another bite of her pulled pork sandwich. I cemented my commitment to him today.

I never knew this! If he comes to my area all of us will swoop down and engorge ourselves! We’ll reenact that scene from the blues brothers

Person to Bloomberg: "Sir, you got a minute?"
"You couldn't afford it."
“She took another bite of her pulled pork sandwich. I cemented my commitment to him today.”
well, we KNEW you were a whore, so the only question was your price ... turns you you’ll sell yourself for a single meal ...
my fav is the woman at the pastry table who doesn’t have enough hands for two pastries AND a napkin, so she solves the problem by carrying one of the pastries in her mouth like she’s a dog ...
Trump doesnt have to bribe voters with food, drink, appearances by JLO and Beyoncé, etc. We Deplorables show up to see our wonderful WONDERFUL President Trumpperiod!
We show up by the tens of thousands because we KNOW he gave up his billionaire lifestyle because he loves this country and he loves us.
He has truly pledged to this country his life, his fortune, and his sacred honor.
Look at that. A plastic cup. For SHAAAAAAAME.
I was thinking Animal House... ;-)

Good little submissive chick /s
If he would have given her piece of strawberry cheesecake, she'd give him her vote and a lewinsky.
She's a real tough sell!
We’ve already established what you are, madam, now we are just haggling over the price . . .
BUT since I'm now a demonRAT, I can show up at bloomie's breakfast, with my little friend, {unless they have a metal detector at the door}, and see how the opposition is living.
This will certainly help the Trump economy. LOL
I guarantee you there will be security. Don’t even try to CCW in a campaign event.
Quid pro Quo - Illegal buying votes. Time for the feds to step in and fine Bloomturd millions for vote buying and ban him from doing it again or face jail time.
A little minded man with too much money. A sure recipe for disaster for America. Just look at Tom Steyer, another mental midget with too much money and a hatred for the president.
Let’s not forget Nazi KAPO George Soros, the richest traitor in American history, and his sons, buddy little comrades.
