Who has Bloomberg bribed to support him?
See the links. If you don't think that the same thing is happening with the endorsements that Bloomberg suddenly started getting in places like Tennessee, I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn. Or actually, maybe I should sell it to Bloomberg in exchange for switching to supporting him.
Both of the links are from over a decade ago, I don't really have any context for NYC endorsements/charities and don't care enough about 2009 to dig deeper.
We have direct evidence of Steyer and Sanders bribing public officials for endorsements in South Carolina. We have no evidence of that from Bloomberg.
The law was that NYC mayors were term limited to 2 terms. Bloomberg wanted to run again, so he bribed everyone who might oppose it to change the law and allow him to run for a 3rd term, and then to support him in his re-election bid (including also bribing independent good government groups to not put up a fuss about it).
Bloomberg is doing the same thing now - it is his modus operandi. He doesn't just run ads to build support, he bribes people and organizations that stand in his way to build support.
When you have any evidence of him bribing people in this campaign cycle, let me know.
The article about him donating to the charity in 2009 seems slightly sketchy but he had also been donating the same amount to that charity for a decade before he ever needed their help. I don't really care enough about NYC politics in 2009 to go dig around.
