Houston mayor backs Bloomberg and will help launch "Mike for Black America"


Mike Bloomberg picked up the endorsement Thursday of Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner, who leads the fourth largest city in the nation. The announcement follows his endorsement this week by three members of the Congressional Black Caucus. Their support could help allay any renewed concerns about Bloomberg's use of "stop and frisk" policies while he was the mayor of New York City.

"FLINT, MI-- Karen Weaver has endorsed Michael Bloomberg for president because he will “lead the country in the right direction," she said.

The former Flint mayor met Bloomberg in 2016 in the midst of the city’s water crisis. Weaver said that experience showed her what Bloomberg did for the city.

“I got to see first-hand what he did not only for Flint but for mayors all over the country," Weaver said. “He used his voice, power and money to make things better. I’m excited to go around the country and speak on behalf of him and to help make him becoming president a reality. I think he’s long overdue for this country and I believe he will lead us in the right direction.”"

Nor my second, or third , or even fourth choice, but he's way ahead of trump if he is the Democrat's candidate, and I will vote him into office ahead of trump any day, or someone else who wins the primaries. trump is not a republican, or Democrat, he's a criminal who worships putin , and other corrupt dictators, attacks Americans , and all our institutions , then claims he's for America when its the opposite of the truth , he isn't and would rather hurt us and this country for putin. . He only cares about himself, and his profits , then how he'll lie to the people to cover it up with.
