Bloomberg caught on video calling transgender people ‘it,' suggesting LGBTQ rights isn’t ‘a winning formula’ for 2020 election

Michael Bloomberg’s past keeps haunting him — even his very recent past.

The wealthy White House wannabe referred to transgender people as “he, she or it” last spring and suggested Democratic presidential candidates shouldn’t spend time on the campaign trail talking about the rights of “some guy in a dress,” claiming it’s “not a winning formula,” a newly unearthed video reveals.

Bloomberg at least has the human quality of remorse to acknowledge he’s hurt people. Trumps compassion only extends to Murderers and the corrupt.

He's been quoted (and corroborated) as saying that a pregnant woman ought to "Kill it." He said it twice. Wait for the opposition research for that one.

Bloomberg should be praised and thanked for his effective campaign ads against Trump, but IMO, he should stay in the background. He doesn't need to expose himself and embarrass the Party. Now that he's in the debates, he's a needless distraction who CAN'T be serious about getting nominated, so he should stop throwing his money around trying to promote his candidacy. He'll end up throwing the election if he continues.
