Between Stop and Frisk & justifying Redlining, how can any black person support Bloomberg?

[Wargames]

That’s how he got the third term in NYC. He spends a fraction of his wealth and either pays of the politicians or gives money for philanthropy so all the elites back off when he wants to make a power play.

He's literally doing it again. His field staff makes $72,000, thats double what most campaign staff makes. Like money talks and Bloomberg knows this cause he owns a massive media network

People say Trump thinks he's a king but if Bloomberg wins its gonna be rediculous

The man bought a third term as a Republican mayor of NYC and if he becomes the Democratic President he would have bought that too.

Who could stop him the progressive Democrats, or the Republicans? He would pay to primary progressives, with progressives who would just vote as he told them. He would pay for social media slander of people he doesn’t like or just use the large traditional media empire he owns. He would just buy enough Republican votes to get what he wants if the Dems ever organized against him?

Who realistically would be able to tell Bloomberg anything or check him? Like, forget parties it would be a gilded age with the world's largest ego in control.

Yet.... who fukking knows if any a$$hole could help end global warming and the gun nonsense it would be Bloomberg. A Bloomberg/Booker or Bloomberg/Kamala ticket to hopefully keep him from you know..... killing us would probably be enough to overtake Bernie too...... FML this a$$hole could do it.

Waiting for Nap to come out the bushes to push this fool

If bloomberg gets the nomination at a brokered convention and the economy is still on its current "upswing"...not only would trump win..but he might fukk around and win the popular vote too

Michael Moore had a good podcast about this a few weeks ago.

Zero reason to support him.
If he's the nominee, the black "im voting for whoever is running against Trump" crowd is gonna have a tough decision to make,

 

[Wargames]

You know what’s funny a lot of people in this thread fight in the other threads but we all loathe Bloomberg lol

 

[Pressure]

Scary shyt

Americans congratulated Trump saying he's using his own money to fund his campaign. The blueprint is there.

We should be thankful he didn't wait until 2024 to run as republican.

 

[the next guy]

this is exactly what bluecheck blacks deserve. all the complaints about warren and bernie, and now theyre going to end up with a guy who wants their sons in chains. fitting.

 

[the next guy]

I know some people here don’t like The Root but I thought this was an interesting POV. That last sentence reminds of some of the comments made here during the debates and the NH primary about supporting Peter and Amy (two people who have essentially campaigned on what we can’t do).

So let's go with "soft" racism rather then hard racism?

Live down south brehs.

[Worthless Loser]

My black female mayor endorsed Bloomberg today. People are not happy. Black liberals are looking like big time c00ns right now. Selling out their morals and souls for money, power and recognition.

 

[Json]

I agree. I honestly think Bloomberg is just trump with less ego, which in truth is even more dangerous

Dude is as much of a bigot as trump if not more. Just as exploitative of the working class. Same greed. Same political beleifs at the core when they arent pretending. Bloomberg was literally a republican less than 5 years ago

That shyt would be the biggest slap in the face you could hand to voters

All the reasons he won’t set off the alarms among Republicans in red states who don’t want to back Trump but will if it’s a Bernie.

The only group he would enrage is the 2nd Amendment crew and rich Republicans will bush them to get rid of Trump. And go back to the backdoor corruption status quo.

 

[Burned Verses]

His support amongst black people makes 0 sense. I really hope it’s fake

he is buying off the black politicians and pastors. That’s it, plus stop and frisk is nothing to them cause they live in the south.

Eric Gardner’s death from mob strangulation would just be a 400 year old tradition to them.

I don’t like this tweets conclusion because what he is doing to black politicians and pastors is no different than say what the Koch brother do to white conservative politicians and pastors. The only difference is Bloomberg’s ego means he has to run the show from the front instead of the back.

This is is shameful, but it’s also not exclusive to us as a race of people.

We need Pete, Klobuchar and Biden to be in the race through the month of March

But it’s a tough task for the latter two
