Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumBloomberg's policy proposals, so far, are pretty good. But there's an obvious question there.
Bloomberg has been remarkably consistent in his 20 years of political life. Problem is, he's been consistent in his support for center-right policies on many if not most issues. To be fair, not all, he's been consistently good on guns, climate, choice, LGBT, but economically, criminal justice, foreign/military, etc., he's been center-right.
About a month ago, all of that changed. I guess he realized that running for the Democratic nomination on a platform of racial profiling, cutting Social Security and Medicare, opposing sick leave, opposing minimum wage increases, attacking teachers unions, etc., wouldn't work out very well. So now he puts a website with the opposite of all the stuff that he's been advocating for two decades.
The obvious question is, if Bloomberg takes office, is he going to govern according to the policies that appeared on his website in the last few weeks? Or is he going to govern according to the policies that he's been consistently advocating for 20 years?

(3,539 posts)Any of the current nominees could beat lard butt. He wants him gone no matter what it takes. He has already admitted if he doesn't get the nomination he will put his money where his mouth is and continue his fight to remove this criminal. If money is what it takes, then so be it. There are no so-called "ulterior" motives or wanting to buy the government, or whatever, just trump gone.
