Since 2015, this forum has been an absolute battlefield when it comes to Donald Trump. Not just who he is as a person (a rapist, racist scumbag) a businessman (a con-man who has never once genuinely earned a single dollar in his life) and now as a President (a fascist.) But thankfully, for as evil, and as terrible as Donald Trump would like to be, he is kneecapped by a special blend of his ineptitude, petulance, and his laziness. His attention on any topic is fleeting at best. The only real policies of his that have come to pass are often ran by Trump appointees like Stephen Miller, and Betsy DeVos. But this thread isn't about Donald Trump; instead this thread is about one of Donald Trump's friends that is now running for President in Mike Bloomberg. The thesis of this thread is to highlight that Bloomberg's Presidency would forever compromise the United States and turn it into an oligarchy.

Bloomberg being a Billionaire has been a selling point of himself, and his supporters. The common misconception held is that if Bloomberg is already extremely wealthy, that he would not find himself beholden to the interests of the billionaire class. While it may be true that Billionaires are not beholden to other billionaires the way employees are beholden to their employers that comes at the cost of him being accountable to no one. During his four years of office, Bloomberg would have no reason to follow the actual wills of the people. He would continue the same policies and tax cuts that have been bankrupting our nation in order to better himself financially. Whereas Trump sees the office as a way to signal boost his brand, Bloomberg undoubtedly sees the public office as a way to both control Americans, and further enrich himself. Along with that, a Bloomberg presidency will forever make it impossible for any non-billionaire to ever win a US Presidential election. The president will forever be set that the fastest and most effective way to hold public office is to make an immoral amount of wealth. US elections will effectively come with a price tag, instead of an actual election.

Just on its face, we can already correlate Bloomberg and Trump with being rich, racist, sexist, sexual predators, and both deeply connected with human and sex traffickers, Jeffery Epstein. They've largely held the same political ideals and views for much of their lives. As mayor, Bloomberg continued Stop and Frisk, sic'd Police in riot gear on peaceful protestors, and then doxxed the identities of anyone who attend the "Occupy Wallstreet" protest. Donald Trump himself has used Federal Law Enforcement and sic'd them upon South American immigrants, ripping families apart and putting children in cages. Not to mention that Bloomberg and Donald Trump are both accused of sexual misconduct well over 50 times by numerous different women. There's an infamous photo on the internet of Bloomberg, Trump, Bill Clinton, and Rudy Gulliani playing golf together in 2008. If you continue to support Bloomberg with complete awareness of his past as a racist, sexist, sexual predator from New York then you might as well just rip the mask off and admit you would be wearing a MAGA hat if Trump was a Democrat.

There is no debate, and there is no way to budge me on the matter. Donald Trump is awful, he's a fascist, a sexual predator, and a racist old landlord. But he's also a sundowning old cook without the mental fortitude to see beyond using the office to go on fancy trips and get attention. a Bloomberg presidency would be all of the worst qualities of Donald Trump put on steroids. Do not vote for Bloomberg, do not volunteer for Bloomberg, and more importantly, do not accept any sort of money from Bloomberg unless you use 100% of it to trash Bloomberg and donate it to Bernie Sanders.

This advertisement has been approved by Bernie Sanders for President.
 
Good grief. It was the 2016 "Bernie Bro's Boycott" that put Trump in the WH in the first place! Now y'all want to do it again??

Not just no, but hell no!

After Bernie's campaign conceded to Clinton, Sanders endorsed Clinton for President and campaigned for her. Only 10% of Bernie supporters either did not vote, or voted against Clinton in the 2016 election. "Bernie bros" didn't cost Clinton the election.

If not beholding is your criteria, you made the very argument against Bernie, Bro. The DOJ won't prosecute a sitting President and Bernie is so damn old and has a bad heart so he would die in office and would never face justice for all the crimes he would be committing as POTUS. Given his history of criminal behavior, you are right, there is no room to budge on this issue. Bernie must be stopped on Super Tuesday.

Vote Mike Bloomberg. He has a good heart.
 


Yes. Correct. For comparison, 25% of Clinton supporters voted for McCain over Obama in 2008. In your own source, 80% of Sanders' 2016 base voted for Clinton. To make matters worse, the three states that NPR cites Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Missouri were states that Clinton did not campaign or place any sort of base either due to hubris or ineptitude.

But that's beside the point because it is the job of the candidate to earn votes. Voters are not obligated to vote for anybody.

I'd be more interested in this thread if the OP didn't start with the same lies. Tthat have already been laughed off this forum, several times now.

You're a racist buffoon that can only ever commune with the other racist buffoons. Your posts mean absolutely nothing to me.

Not just no, but hell no!

Speaking as a Bernie supporter who eventually held his nose and voted for Hillary, this is a pathetic attempt to shift the blame from Hillary and the DNC to the American electorate. The blame is 100% Hillary's for refusing to even attempt to appeal to the progressive wing of the party and refusing to attempt to mend the fences. I have never voted Democrat in my life until 2016, and that's because Bernie brought me into the tent. He's brought far more new people into the party than any other candidate and it's a net gain.

Stop trying to serve us up terrible candidates then pretend it's our fault for not supporting them. I will vote for any Democrat except Bloomberg, and if the DNC pushes him through against the will of the people they'll lose again and it will be their fault.


You're being intentionally dishonest because you're pretending 100% of his supporters were democrats that "owe" the party their vote. He managed to draw in people from both parties and people who never voted before. Anything to avoid blaming Hillary for her catastrophic loss die to her own unforced errors right?
 
You're a racist buffoon that can only ever commune with the other racist buffoons. Your posts mean absolutely nothing to me.

Bernie Sanders is a 78 year old white segregationist who white flighted from NYC to an all white town to put his kid into a whites-only school. There, he campaigned against racial segregation back then and as recently as 2015 said that black and white kids should not be in the same schools because this causes racial tension. That is what white racist segregationists always say - it's not that they are racist. It's just that birds of the same feather should flock together.

Sanders is not in ANY position to call anyone else a racist.

It is stunning that the BEST the Democratic Party might come up with is a 78 year old white socialist, who is a white racist segregationist and voted to deny 6 million Dreamers a path to citizenship, plus opposing a foreign guest worker system - all to keep illegal immigrants illegal.

I neglected to also mention that Bernie Sanders paid off a sexual harassment claim and his female staff in his last election accused him of being a sexist.

Seriously, the Democratic Party is going to run a old white male socialist as their candidate? That's the BEST YOU PROGRESSIVE GOT?! That old wacko free health-and-wealth political tele-evangelist only if you follow his one-man-act fraud?

Ah, but his record of decades in the government so notable. He actually got TWO post offices in his state named. That's it - and from that it is claimed he can entirely restructure the American economy. And he won't do it by liberalism. "Liberalism is futile." His words.

Now you're just desperately screeching at someone who pointed out how broken your shtick was. Which ended up with you just continually projecting all over again.
 
So our forum's Bernie Bros is terrified of Bloomberg? No surprise about that. Bloomberg is going to fight Sanders to the very end.

Bloomberg calling Sanders a communist was one of those slow-kill political bullets that did more damage to Sanders than his and Warrens collective personal attacks against him. That label, communist, is going to resonate across many influential and politics circles. And Bloomberg and these circles know how to and have virtually unlimited resources to make certain everyone knows that Sanders is an old white communist. There is NOTHING Sanders can do to stop it.
