Bloomberg openly plans to win the Dems’ nomination by a brokered convention in Milwaukee

The pieces are falling in place for a complete debacle for the Democrats, up to and including a convention walkout and riots if Michael Bloomberg’s plans to gain the nomination succeed. Under that scenario, an embittered radical wing of the party convinced that they have been betrayed in favor of a greedy plutocrat would not provide the necessary votes to defeat President Trump’s ambitions for a second term. More likely, they would back a third-party radical candidate, or stay home.

One or two billion $$ tells me the Bloomturd isn't out of it until he's all the way into the hyper toxic septic tank. He's not there yet, disastrous debate to the contrary notwithstanding. Amazon can still be happy; its popcorn sales will swell.

Make all the Democratic super-delegates sign NDAs.

Think of it as open and transparent politics in action!

Bloomy is a capitalist trying to pilfer/ purchase, yes that is a strange combo, the nomination of a communist party.

This is not going to end well.

Shhhh, let’s just sit back and enjoy the show of them destroying themselves. I do predict that as soon as they have a nominee, they’ll pretend like everything is fine and that the candidate (regardless of flaws) is their best pick. They will pretend that their entire cause is united.

With the rat choices available they may as well call it off and develop a viable candidate for 2024...

When Trump self-funded his campaign (with loans), I remember it being universally praised on here because it meant he was incorruptible and couldn’t be bought. Why are you outraged when Bloomberg does the same thing?

In Milwaukee, Bloomberg will offer to write a check to Bernie, and Bernie will gladly take it.

Bernie can definitely be bought - he has 3 houses to prove it.

Be careful what you wish for, Mikey Boy.

Hillary will run away with the nomination at a brokered convention.

You and your billions will be left out in the cold, wondering what happened.

It’s so easy to buy Democrats when you have more money than God.

The MOST hysterical part of all the whining about how superdelegates will upset the will of the people at a brokered convention - is that this most closely resembles “ranked-choice voting,” which they plan to inflict on the naton.

Bloomy didn’t join that debate to debate. He wanted to size up everyone on the stage so he could assess their price. Warren will cost $X to buy off, Sanders $Y, etc.
