Mike Bloomberg getting black support despite stop-and-frisk controversy

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

WASHINGTON – In 2013, the last year of former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg's tenure, Rep. Gregory Meeks, a Democrat who represents parts of Queens in New York City, called the Bloomberg administration's stop-and-frisk policy "illegal" and "attacks on our communities."

But in 2020, Meeks endorsed Bloomberg for president, a day after a video of Bloomberg's past remarks defending the practice, which had disproportionately affected racial minorities, ricocheted around the internet.

In a brief interview with USA TODAY, Meeks said he accepted Bloomberg's apology for what the congressman called "bad policy" that was "just trying to save lives."

"I know you're just trying to save lives, but it was in a bad way, right, and ultimately he realized it, and he's apologized for it," he said.

1. He won't get my support.

His past isn't pretty.

(yes he will have my vote in the General)

I hope he never gets that far.
