Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumMike Bloomberg in town tonight
Mike had crowds in the hundreds in both Chattanooga and Nashville. Former Nashville Mayor Karl Dean and Howard Gentry, a legend of African American politics in the city, endorsed Mike. There were was an African American mayor from South Carolina that spoke. Mike seems like a guy that is willing to spend whatever it takes to beat Trump. He's a man in his 70s and doesn't need to do this. I feel he truly loves America, the opportunities it has provided him and wants to save it from Trump. He says there is no limit to the resources we will devote to defeating Trump. He's not trying to "buy" and election but spending to defeat Trump. He's sharp, on point and can self fund a take down of the GOP. He has spent almost 100 million in VA on the 2018 and 2019 House and Gov races. He's spent 25 million on voter registration drives. Like it or not it's going to take 500 million- minimum to beat Trump. Mike has that in his sock drawer. Trump likes to tout his wealth, success and business savvy. Dear Donald. Meet Mike.

(13,582 posts)Dont forget, Trump is also a populist.
Maybe a little reading is in order? Populism exist both on the right and on the left. Its not so much an ideology as it is a tactic or framing tool. So... Do I think Bernie and Hitler and Trump share the same end goals. Of course not. Do they share the same tactics? Maybe... its not me calling him a populist.
