81. Bloomberg Campaign Hints at Damaging Sanders Info

Tue Feb 18, 2020, 08:12 PM

Feb 2020

This intrigues me. I have seen a ton of the oppo on sanders but would love to see more https://politicalwire.com/2020/02/18/bloomberg-campaign-hints-at-damaging-sanders-info/

Bloomberg campaign manager Kevin Sheekey tweets: “The opposition research on Bernie Sanders could fill Donald Trump’s empty Foxconn facility in Wisconsin.”

“It is very damaging, perhaps even disqualifying.”

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
