Why Should Michael Bloomberg be Allowed to Buy the United States of America ?
He has the money - So why should you care?

Hey, the Democratic/Liberal and now Socialist party still
wants you to believe that Donald Trump ran and won the
Presidency because of money - False - He won because he was willing to gamble money for a country he believed in
- and yes the money did help.

But Michael Bloomberg is different - He is the antithesis
of American ideals, a 'control freak' that believes in
your well being, as long as he controls it.

He was a Republican, then an independent and now
a Democrat - Whatever party suits his agenda he tries
to control for his personal use

No guns - guns are dangerous.

Control the fast food industry, and eventually all you eat, so that only Michael Bloomberg approved meals can be
served in restaurants - And eventually your home.

No tobacco - He has been reported to have spent
$150.000.000 to destroy the the vaping industry even before the 'so called' lung disease appeared - Makes you wonder if he didn't have something to do with it?

Stop and frisk - Police should have the right to stop anyone who looks suspicious, right?


Do you want this king of dick heads to own your country?

When Donald Trump won the Presidency some 'I love Hillary'fanatics kept screaming not my President as they demonstrated against him.

But Donald Trump, like his policies or not, believes in the United States, not only because he did well in it,
but because, again like him or not - He has a soul.

Do you really think the ultimate control freak, Michael
Bloomberg, now trying to destroy the Democratic Party
and buy America has even the slightest trace of a Human
soul ?

Re: Why Should Michael Bloomberg be Allowed to Buy the United States of America ?
It's kind of funny how things always backfire. Bloomberg is going to make Democrats realize that they need Elizabeth Warren to kick his ass because she is the only one who has called him out.

The irony of course is that the only reason that Bloomberg is running is because the Starbucks child lost, and that makes Elizabeth Warren look even better.

She is obviously fated to slay all the billionaires and we can safely say that it's two down and one left to go -can't wait for the debate !

Well I think he has a pretty good chance of pulling this off -He has proved himself already in New York and he, like many others, feels that Donald Trump is a danger to the USA and must be removed. All the platform promises he makes seem quite good. Vaping is now being proved to cause terrible injury to the lungs.God knows you certainly need gun control and climate change is only going to worsen. If money is the issue to win a presidency in America then he has billions to do it. He is a true self made billionaire and not a fake one like Trump...

Friends wake up! - Michael Bloomberg is the single greatest threat the United Satess has faced since the Communist Party - Yes, I know he supposekly represents {???}
- And that's the problem - no one really knows what he represents.

David Icke would define him as a 'Reptilian' stemming from a conspiracy that goes way back - And even though I don't particularly like David Icke as one might see his conspiracy theories as anti-Semitic, though Icke swears they are not - But face it, every race, every religion, produces its share of evil - And evil may be very liberal, in fact it is always too liberal.

That is why people like me who side with many liberal causes, must stand up and shout when we see things going too far, left right, or Michael Bloomberg dick head.


Trump will not be impeached and this impeachment inquiry is already starting to backfire - They say Trump has gained popularity since it began.

And if the Democratic Party wants any chance to win the Presidency, slim as it may be - They must immediately,
I mean yesterday, dis-associate any connection with Michael Bloomberg and the "the we will help you, like it or not, totalitarian ideology he stands for.

God Bless America,

Re: Why Should Michael Bloomberg be Allowed to Buy the United States of America ?
YES!!! YES !!! YES!!! Bloomberg is the best choice because he already controls Congress and the Democratic Party and is also like the 15th most wealthy person on the Plant.

Bloomberg likely to decide on 2020 bid by early next year

Still, Bloomberg endeared himself to many Democratic leaders in recent months after deciding to invest more than $110 million in the 2018 midterms — largely focused on House races.

Ultimately, Bloomberg’s preferred candidates won all but three of two dozen targeted House races, focused overwhelmingly in America’s suburbs.

Once it became clear Democrats seized the House majority, he said he delivered a stern message to Pelosi.

“I’ve said to Nancy Pelosi: ‘We don’t expect you to do the same thing to the Republicans that the Republicans were doing to you. We want to have people working across the aisle for the benefit of America rather than for the benefit of their party,’” Bloomberg said.

That’s a message Pelosi herself has articulated in recent weeks. Bloomberg reinforced it again in person on Tuesday as Pelosi met with his board of directors in private.

“I said, sitting next to her, without mincing words, I said, ‘You know, we expect you to do a good job,’” Bloomberg said. “That’s why we supported the Democrats.”

Democratic officials poised to play leading roles in the next presidential election took notice of Bloomberg’s investment.

Guy Cecil, chairman of the Democratic super PAC Priorities USA, described Bloomberg’s midterm effort as “incredibly helpful.” It’s unclear, however, whether Democratic voters who might favor younger, more liberal candidates in 2020 will see him any differently.

“Democrats appreciate how much he has invested and how much his team has been engaged in the cycle, but ultimately it’s going to be about what Bloomberg’s vision is for the future, Cecil said.

h**ps://www.680news.com/2018/11/14/bloomberg-likely-to-decide​-on-2020-bid-by-early-next-year/

As Bloomberg already owns the Democratic Party, it is only natural for him to be President and control two branches of Government. Then all he will need to do is pack the courts and he owns all three! Even Nancy Pelosi is afraid of him, witch tells the complete story.

Re: Why Should Michael Bloomberg be Allowed to Buy the United States of America ?
Try this:

Michael Bloomberg Isn’t Interested in You

".......Wolfson added, further, that this makes Bloomberg “wholly independent of special interests.” But what really separates Bloomberg from his competitors—or, really, any presidential campaign before it—is its indifference to “interests” altogether.

Michael Bloomberg may be running for president, but he’s not engaging in anything that resembles politics as we know it. He is not organizing in early states or trying to cultivate grassroots energy. He’s not building coalitions, he’s not competing in early trial heats, and he’s not participating in debates. He is, instead, using his unlimited resources to determine if there’s a price point at which a national election can be won without having to participate in politics......"


"In lieu of participating in what one might call politics, where interests are solicited and acted upon, Bloomberg is paying to convert the nation’s airwaves into a hypnotism operation benefitting him. Even Donald Trump, who had little interest in the nuts and bolts of traditional campaigning, was willing to supplement his rallies with appearances on the debate stage, and to try to identify a constituency. Bloomberg imagines himself to be the candidate for everyone—and never for anyone in particular."

You would think he had no chance of winning - no grass roots support - no political purpose whatsoever except to further his 'control freak' agenda which is loosely based on Democratic Party agendas

- But a 'Reptilian shape shifting control freak' with all the money in the world believes he can manipulate the system and bamboozle the public into believing in him.

He is a clear cut threat to the American Constitution and its ideals.

From Business Insider:

Michael Bloomberg built a $54 billion company. For 2 decades, women who worked there have called it a toxic, sexually charged nightmare.

"Bloomberg LP, the financial-data firm that presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg founded in 1981, has repeatedly been described as a sexualized, predatory environment in harassment and discrimination complaints from several women, a Business Insider investigation has found."

In court records going back 20 years, multiple women have accused Michael Bloomberg of permitting his company to become — in the words of one former employee — a "reckless playground" for male senior executives to "target young, female, naive employees" for sex.

Two women, including one who filed a claim as recently as 2016, alleged that they were sexually assaulted by Bloomberg LP executives and terminated after raising complaints.

Michael Bloomberg has been accused repeatedly in court records of making crude remarks, including telling employees, "You must be a great fuck" and "I would like nothing more in life than to have Sharon Stone sit on my face."

While his spokesman has portrayed those sorts of comments as unfortunate episodes from decades ago, Bloomberg and his company face five active discrimination complaints as he launches his presidential bid."

The problem with your premise is that you are saying the voters are so dumb that they don't know what they are doing when they vote for someone.

Trump spent less money than Hillary.

If Bloomberg spends hundreds of millions the voters will say they won't let him buy their vote or they will say they like his policies.

To think they don't know what they are doing or not know they are being bought is similar to saying they are deplorables. All voters deserve more respect than that.

Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives”
reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to
its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in
the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by
the children of the citizens
, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all
their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel

Hey, Michael Bloomberg, no one wants you to run for president


"On Thursday, reporters learned that former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg is preparing to enter the Democratic primary. Scores of Democratic donors rejoiced at the news, and tens of families in the Hamptons erupted in cheers. In this era of increasing racial diversity, gender equality and rising populist anger, the Democratic primary clearly needed a septuagenarian white male billionaire to enter the race. Thank God Bloomberg is here to save the day!

Snark aside, Bloomberg 2020 is a bad idea. Polls suggest that Democrats neither want nor need a Bloomberg candidacy, and his strategy seems seriously flawed. Democratic donors have been sounding the alarm about their front-runners, but even if they’re right, Democrats already have better options than Bloomberg in the race.......

But Bloomberg has real disadvantages, too. He’s 77 years old, and polls show that voters have reservations about nominating candidates over age 70. He’s a white man trying to represent an increasingly diverse party. As my colleague Philip Bump noted, ha has supported stop-and-frisk policies, which may be a non-starter with African Americans and liberal voters of other races. Old sexual misconduct allegations may resurface during his run. Most candidates who look perfect on paper disappoint, and Bloomberg doesn’t look that great on paper........"

Exactly! - And that is the main reason I started this post.

But don't get me wrong - I am a political independent and have nothing against money - And yes I supported Trump in the last election - The Clintons had a history of shaky dealings that go way back to Arkansas - And Hillary's lost emails sealed the case against her.

Whatever the Democrats are doing to try to impeach Trump
is stupid and trite - Trump is Trump and does make some mistakes - but they should not be trying to impeach him
for trivial things that some say could be construed as typical government at work.

The thing you got to ask though - Is who is Bloomberg and
what is Bloomberg trying to accomplish? If he wrecks the
Democratic parties chances in the coming election and wins the nomination and then its Bloomberg vs. Trump;
Who do you think will win? I think people, left right
and independent, would sooner have a Trump they may
sometimes dislike than a Bloomberg they will soon grow to
hate!

Bill de Blasio’s Case Against Michael Bloomberg 2020

"It’s not new for the progressive de Blasio to criticize the billionaire former Republican and independent (who was also, before that, a Democrat, and who has since been one of the Democrats’ biggest benefactors). De Blasio also has the time to do it since his own campaign flamed out in September, but it’s not like he is setting a massive national following against the newest candidate in the race. But as Bloomberg has stepped up his presidential considerations and then launched his bid, the current mayor has amplified his criticisms, including point-blank telling reporters earlier this month that Bloomberg should not be the party’s nominee."

"Of the language in the ad, de Blasio said, “It’s hard to place it with him, because he never spoke to these issues in a meaningful way previously. It’s important, for someone who’s been around for as long as he has, to look at his actions and not take his words too seriously. He has been a free-marketeer his entire life, and always favors market solutions when it comes to anything economic.” De Blasio continued, “And the notion that suddenly he wants to make sure everyone has health insurance? I never saw him advocate coherently for universal health care, so it’s hard to believe he’s suddenly a convert.”

"Taxing the wealthy “doesn’t fit anything we’ve ever seen from him before, and this is where you can’t just buy your way out of your contradictions,” said de Blasio of Bloomberg, a longtime ally of Wall Street who did increase property taxes in 2003, after the post-9/11 budget crisis. “Here’s a guy who, after the Great Recession, had no coherent response to the greatest economic crisis of our times. He opposed an increase in wages, he opposed paid sick days for working people, did not want to tax the wealthy more, explicitly. And was very sympathetic to the financial industry, even though they were the cause of the Great Recession.”

"“I think people are smarter than Bloomberg gives them credit for,” de Blasio added. “I think they will see these contradictions pretty quickly.”
