In the future, every NY billionaire Epstein-associated sex pest will be president for fifteen minutes.

I probably would because my wife would divorce me otherwise, but fuck Bloomberg.

I think he would have a more accomplished left-wing presidency than bernie sanders

I wish he'd arrested you ya bloody lunatic

do you give a shit about civil liberties? obv not

"Bloomberg is not perfect" could be even more fun than "Obama is not perfect"

turn on MSNBC to find out

sorry morbs I guess I just care about passing left wing policy more than you

Morbz has never cared about policy

i doubt sanders would actually get much of anything passed

fuck both of you shits hard

let Bloomshit spend on those public option ads w/out thinking he needs to buy the fucking presidency

brooklyn suicide cult (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:04 (four years ago) link

Lol at the idea of Bloomberg passing more left wing policy than Bernie. Unless by left wing policy you mean industrial development zones and tax breaks for fat cat developers, in which case Bloomberg all the way.

If he gets it (which, probably not), I could say I was alive to watch the right realize their mission to completely infiltrate and take over the Democratic Party. /TinfoilHatButStill

tell the OWS centrist to go meditate

Bloomberg is doing all this to kneecap a progressive agenda, not advance it. He knows MSNBC Dems are the easiest marks.

Chris L, Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:08 (four years ago) link

the Dems are already 'right' or haven't you been noticing which candidate they MUST stop

the Repugs are tinfoil hats & brownshirts

ok I told him

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:10 (four years ago) link

I don't care if he thinks climate change is real, he'd sooner be the one to usher in our likely inevitable era of eco-fascism rather than see his taxes go up.

Chris L, Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:10 (four years ago) link

I don’t disagree with you Morbs. I know it shouldn’t be but, but god help me it’s honestly *shocking* to watch Clinton partisans on cable news and social media getting wet for Bloomberg

A-B-C. A-Always, B-Be, C-Chooglin (will), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:13 (four years ago) link

they voted for him 3x in NYC

brooklyn suicide cult (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:16 (four years ago) link

Giuliani endorsed him as his successor bcz he'd keep the police state and hedge funds humming

brooklyn suicide cult (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:17 (four years ago) link

Yeah, Bloomberg is like Giuliani without the Trump brainworms.

yeah I know, and I’m not a New Yorker, but this feels different somehow. particularly in light of his recent history of flagrant racism and misogyny and our current cultural moment—as it pertains to liberals, that is.

interesting who can potentially be rehabbed and who can’t.

A-B-C. A-Always, B-Be, C-Chooglin (will), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:21 (four years ago) link

maybe someday Trump will run against Giuliani and we'll have a real choice

Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:22 (four years ago) link

liberals can and always have been racist in regard to any or all "perpetrators"

bloomberg and bloomberg are not entitled to hear my answer to this question

I think of deportations and I do feel it's every persons duty to vote against Trump no matter what

sleeve, Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:24 (four years ago) link

Trump wins that's four more years of trump and then we reset, likely with a dem

Bloomberg wins that's 8 years of Bloomberg followed likely by a Republican because parties usually switch after 8 years in power, but maybe not seeing as mike isn't actually liberal

or 4 years of Bloomberg followed by a Republican

Either way that's 8 more years minimum of a horrible, racist man in the white house

You can say "but the supreme court" but does anyone think Bloomberg would actually nominate liberal judges? His campaign contributions in recent elections helped us get to the majority that allowed Kavanaugh

I'm not saying I would vote Trump, I'm saying it's not as easy a tradeoff as people say

If Bloomberg did succeed in buying the nomination, that's about the best opening you could ask for to launch a populist-left third party run imho

bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:32 (four years ago) link

if bloomberg wins the nom and sanders launches a third-party run, that could cripple leftist politics in america for decades, no matter how morally justifiable his choice to run would be.

which hey, another Republican/ Democrat win-win!!!

A-B-C. A-Always, B-Be, C-Chooglin (will), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:34 (four years ago) link

Worth a shot anyway, seeing as nominating Bloomberg would prove that the Dems are beyond saving

bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:36 (four years ago) link

nb if I lived swing state I would probably vote Bloomberg

But without a pathway to primarying him in 2024 that would doom us to 8 years of shit

Y'all just have more faith in Bloomberg to be anything more than a less vulgar more efficient trump. I don't buy his act.

℺ ☽ ⋠ ⏎ (✖), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:39 (four years ago) link

ok so then I won't vote for Bloomberg. and then Trump will win. So we'll be stuck with the more vulgar less efficient Bloomberg.

NY billionaire Epstein-associated sex pests

I just want to go back to this because it's a great phrase

totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:41 (four years ago) link

xxp

no, that's exactly what he's gonna be. but he's less likely than trump to start a nuclear war, and more likely to take 'meaningful' steps against climate change.

obviously, he's still terrible, and as a ny resident i would strongly consider voting third party if he's the nominee.

ooga booga-ing for the bourgeoisie (voodoo chili), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:43 (four years ago) link

Xp for four years instead of 8. That's my entire point. If Bloomberg promised to drop out or drop dead after 4 years it'd be different.

℺ ☽ ⋠ ⏎ (✖), Thursday, 13 February 2020 21:44 (four years ago) link

I still think it's our duty to vote for the better candidate without worrying about what's gonna happen 8 years down the road, especially when there are certain issues which absolutely can not wait that long. if the DNC nominates Bloomberg then they clearly did not learn the lesson from 2016, so then who's gonna save us in 2024? at the end of the day I'd take Bloomberg over Trump. I mean I'd rather it be Jared Fogle than either of those two, but if this is the choice we have....
