1. All of Bloomberg's own positions are leading the attack.

So the real target should not be Sanders, who is only pointing out these positions, it should be Bloomberg himself.

2. ....

4. Uh..yeah, that's what he's responding to

You can see it right there in the first post.

[George II]

7. He should be responding to the divisive tweets from his highest staffers.

[DanTex]

3. Perfect. And I gotta say, Bloomberg walked right into this one.

I mean, trying to compare Bernie to Trump....

[HerbChestnut]

5. Troll level 9000.

Beautiful.

6. Mike talks a good game but since he is a former Bush/Cheney Republican I have my doubts about what

he would actually deliver for the average American.

[George II]

8. Bloomberg never said that JFK made him "physically nauseated" or extolled the virtues of....

....Fidel Castro and Daniel Ortega.

[jalan48]

9. Bloomberg is a Bush/Cheney Republican.

[rockfordfile]

12. Is that true?

[jalan48]

13. He was a Republican in 2004 and spoke at the Republican National Convention supporting them.

[George II]

18. No it's not.

[George II]

17. No he's not. Please don't distort Democrats' records.

[jalan48]

20. Here ya go George-from the 2004 Republican Convention

OH, and BTW Bush was running against Democrat John Kerry. Remember him?

[George II]

25. Hard to read, but here's the excerpt directly out of a Vermont newspaper, it wasn't out of context..

....or a specific statement:

[George II]

28. It wasn't, as you put it, about a specific statement. It was about an entire speech....

Do you know if that speech was about Cuba? He didn't even reference Cuba until he mentioned the debate between Kennedy and Nixon.

[George II]

30. No, you didn't say a specific "speech":

Here's what you said:

I believe that line about president Kennedy is ripped out of context and is referring to a very specific statement of Kennedy's that he didn't agree with.

[George II]

32. So, you've been here barely an hour and you've already responded to me in half of your 14 posts....

To what do I owe this attention?

[juliuswest]

34. You both are right...

Now shut the heck up.

[Mersky]

10. So in 2007, the then mayor of New York encountered resident tRump at a charity golf tournament.

Searching GettyImages is easy.

15. Mike Bloomberg: "I'm a friend of Donald Trump's. He's a New York icon."

16. Bernie Sanders spoke of "my good friend Lindsay Graham". That's how it is in politics.

[melman]

19. Donald Trump wasn't in politics in 2011

[George II]

21. Bill and Hillary Clinton went to trump's wedding to Melania. What do you have to say about that?

That's the way it is in politics.

[Mersky]

22. Yep, congrats, you got me to view the clip

Was underwhelming as it is mostly wallace leading and talking over. He does say both things but in mitigating tones, basically relates that tRump meets the bare minimum to run for the pResidency in response to wallace asking directly, and asserts that Obama was born in the United States. Annoyingly, the video abruptly ends in the midst of Bloomberg taking a breath after, “glommed on to this.”

I’m sure there’s something unflattering or misleading if taken out of context in Bernie’s recent appearance on fox news, but I can’t be bothered to give them viewership.

[KayF]

11. I wonder what they're talking about?

how much they respect women?

[redqueen]

14. Reminded me of a popular meme which shows four candidates

along with the number of sexual assault allegations against each.

Apparently, Bloomberg has even more than Trump.

[Uncle Joe]

23. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread melman.

[Gothmog]

35. LOL these are very mild attacks on sanders

Trump would be far harsher and would destroy a weak general election candidate like sanders. I am amused by sanders weak response
