Michael Bloomberg 2020 campaign megathread

[Rookie Yinzer]

His nomination would be funny to troll Mr. Trump, though, because Bloomberg is a lot of things Mr. Trump likes to be, or pretends to be.

This is the problem with Bloomberg, Biden, Harris, and any of the establishment goons. What about making people's lives better? It's all about slamming Trump and who can best "piss Trump off" to the Democratic elite who don't care at all about their voters.

Let's see if Bloomberg gets hounded day and night about a potential third party candidacy like Tulsi has been, though. Will the DNC care if it's Bloomberg running third party against Sanders?

That doesn’t describe Harris at all.

And let’s not act like voters are voting based on policy and what somebody will do for them. They will go vote if they think their candidate is cool and worth their time to do so.

Post Iowa and I can see a path for Bloomberg. Black and Latino Democratic primary voters are not as hostile to him as the media would think...... and he’s been taking Trump head on unapologetically......

This isn’t going to move the Black voters that are converting from Biden to Bloomberg. 71 percent of Black voters identify as moderate or conservative. Look at them backing Crime Bill Joe.

It’s also one of the reasons Kamala doubled down on being a prosecutor. Older Black people are law and order voters.

Bloomberg really has a chance at this nomination I see.

Democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg nabbed the endorsements of three members of the Congressional Black Caucus on Wednesday, a day after taking fire over audio of the former New York City mayor praising the controversial stop-and-frisk police practice.

Bloomberg won the backing of Rep. Lucy McBath (D-Ga.), who represents a swing district, Del. Stacey Plaskett (D-Virgin Islands) and Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-N.Y.). Plaskett had previously endorsed Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) for president before she ended her White House bid.

My aunt is going to his early vote rally in Raleigh tomorrow. At this point everyone in my family has transitioned from Biden to Bloomberg. It's been fascinating to watch.

Bro... this is pretty damning for Joe Biden. Bloomberg’s political team is putting in WORK.

This is an observation not an ENDORSEMENT.

Who is this person? Just ugh at this old white man telling folks to blacklist 22 year old kids taking a job where they knock doors and make phone calls.

So last week I talked to this older black woman on my local Democratic Committee and she told me she was going from Biden to Bloomberg.

I called her today to see what she was thinking after Bloomberg’s tumultuous week. She said it made her support him even more because it must mean Trump is scared. Obviously this is anecdotal but older black voters are not going to run away because Twitter roasted him.

Mike comes for Bernie 👀

There’s not a candidate on that stage that won’t have reason to eviscerate Bloomberg. I’m surprised he wants to get on that stage and ruin the narrative he’s set with his ads. It’s going to be guns a blazing

[Rookie Yinzer]

I'm sorry Warren isn't going to do sh-t. She was supposed to have this epic battle with Bernie and this epic battle with Biden and when she got in their face she barely made a move on them. I have no reason to believe she'll do anything with Bloomberg nor will he give her the time of the day. She just got 0 delegates in a state tailored made with her strongest demographics. She will be irrelevant.

Warren and Biden have BOTH had digital ads with President Obama singing their praises. Bloomberg isn't being misleading or spreading fake news. He knows just like the others that voters are stupid and take things at face value. Biden is just hating because he doesn't have the resources to blanket Super Tuesday with ads of Obama lavishing praise on him. It is what it is.

[Rookie Yinzer]

His nomination would be a significant setback for anyone who believes in anything Obama/Clinton/Sanders ran on.

Bernie Sanders called for Obama to be primaried. Don't try to wrap him up in Obama's legacy because y'all are scared that Bloomberg will keep your fave from an outright majority of delegates.

[Rookie Yinzer]

He has the money to plow on through though. So not sure why folks are declaring him dead like he is relying on the intelligentsia and donors to keep him afloat.

[Rookie Yinzer]

Bloomberg will be up on the radio and tv changing the narrative TOMORROW.

The average Democratic voter will NEVER see this debate or a clip from it. And we need to stop acting like the intelligentsia class represents the Democratic Party. There are MANY Democrats that don’t give a damn that he said “I’d do her in a second” or called women “horse faced lesbians”. It is what it is.

This is an OBSERVATION not an endorsement. All my preferred candidates are either out of the race or have no viable path to 1,991 delegates.

Mike has such an abhorrent history. I could never bring myself to vote for him in the primary.

The candidate he tried to make himself out to be through his ads would have been a good anti-Bernie option but nah. IDK what to do next month.

Pick Biden, ofc.

If he’s still relevant I guess.

[Rookie Yinzer]

I love to see it.

$560 million to come away with American Samoa. Thanks a lot for taking delegates away from Biden, Mike. If not for you we would have won California.

Y'all are so overdramatic. His run was no harm no foul. Biden is about to build an insurmountable delegate lead through LA, FL, MS, and GA and will kill Bernie in the ACELA corridor. Everything is good.
