Michael Bloomberg hits back at Bernie Sanders and his supporters. |
He released a scathing video calling out Sanders for condoning the actions of his supporters.
The so-called Bernie Bros are making hard for moderate Democrats to support Sanders if he does become the nominee.
We need to unite to defeat Trump in November. This type of "energy" is not going to get us there. https://t.co/bPuUZMs2d6 pic.twitter.com/Tdp6mpWjcX— Mike Bloomberg (@MikeBloomberg) February 17, 2020
Some of the remarks going around on social media include Sanders supporting trolls like Shaun King, Benjamin Dixon, Cenk Uygur and others.
"Libs who are flirting with Bloomberg now should be aware that they are going on lists," said one tweet. Several others targeted Democratic candidates and previous rivals Hillary Clinton, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), Beto O'Rourke and Julian Castro.
Bloomberg, the former New York City mayor is rising in the polls and it's drew the ire of Sanders, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and Joe Biden. They are complaining that Bloomberg is buying his way to the nomination.
What's the problem with that?
There's no rules to self-finance your presidential campaign. He's following all the rules of the Federal Elections Committee and he's following the law.
What makes me like him more is the fact he's ignoring the noise. Yeah, I agree Bloomberg has to answer to his record as mayor, business mogul and activist, but don't act like Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and the rest ain't squeaky clean.
Sanders has to answer for his record as a senator. Last time, I've check, he, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) have no many accomplishments other than generating television appearances and memes. Sanders supported Joe Biden's crime bill and opposes gun control.
Bloomberg warns Sanders that he will not win support from Democrats who are moderate. |
Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) still in this race. No one is asking about her ties to a Hindu extremist or her white extremist support. Everyone is complaining about her going to Sean "Softball" Hannity's shitshow and the Russian influence campaign, but no one is talking about legislative accomplishments which she has none to offer.
The only ones who have accomplishments are Biden, Klobuchar, Bloomberg and Pete Buttigieg.
Sanders on the campaign blasted Bloomberg for supporting the "stop-and-frisk" policies of the New York Police Department.
Some comments from the trolls include:
"Vote Bernie or bad things will happen."
Some suggest Buttigieg as a "demonic rat."
At an event in Las Vegas, Sanders said that Bloomberg will not excite voters and he has no energy to win over voters.
"The simple truth is that Mayor Bloomberg, with all his money, will not create the kind of excitement and energy we need to have the voter turnout we must have to defeat Donald Trump."
Bloomberg's campaign said that he will raise taxes on the wealthy and will close tax loopholes and bolster enforcement."
November 22 is the Nevada Caucuses. Sanders is leading in the field.
The ad singles out Sanders for pushing a negative campaign against Democrats running. Bloomberg is warning Sanders and his supporters that the gloves will come off if they continue to attack him.
