3. Funny

 

That is funny, coming from somebody who supports a man who is trying to bypass the democratic process and buy the Presidency. Bloomberg is more selfish than any other candidate. He is essentially running a vanity campaign by spending many millions of dollars on ads. Democracy is not about Billionaires buying elections. It is about grassroots mobilization and power to the people. Bloomberg is as selfish and divisive as they come.

5. How about one who sexually harrasses women? Who throws black and brown kids up

 

against the wall by the 100s of thousands? Who attacks people for their race or nationality or sexual orientation or identity?

Wow - I see how it might be a tough choice.



For some.

7. How is it selfish to say what he believes?

 

Besides, what was he supposed to say? He was asked about comments he made 30 years ago, long before he ever ran for president. He could have tried to wiggle out of it but that probably would have been worse - people who don't agree with him respect him for being authentic and willing to say things most Dems are afraid to say.
