But this is different than rape and sexual assault and grabbing them by the pussy like a thrice married adulterer male.

Is Mike Bloomberg Anti choice?

I am not defending it or him. I am undecided. But I gotta say that saving the country is of utmost importance. All else takes second place. If he is the nominee I will vote for him.

So, to tearing him down or any of our candidates now will make it more difficult in November.

Funny you should ask if he's "pro-choice". Of the close to 40 Sexual Harassment and Discrimination suits filed against him, the most
notorious may involve his pressuring an employee to get an abortion
in the crudest terms possible.

Another tRump lookalike. 40 sexual harassment lawsuits along with his attitudes about minorities totally disqualifies this man.
