The Democratic establishment seems to be assisting him with this. But Bloomberg is not only an oligarch, he has a racist, classist, transphobic past that shows that he will not only serve the interests of his fellow oligarchs, but he will be a threat to minorities, poor people, and the LGBTQ community. --Walker Bragman (@WalkerBragman on Twitter) found an amazing clip of Mayor Pete from just a year ago where he makes the case for socialism and expanding the Overton window to include everything that Sanders stands for. What happened to this Pete!? Which Pete is the real one? Does it even matter?--USA Today has an article out saying that Moderate Dems must consider Bernie Sanders because he is the candidate that can beat Trump. Thing is, the people want to beat Trump -- but the establishment players would rather lose with Bloomberg than win with Sanders.***** PATRONS ONLY SHOW PAST THIS POINT *****Michael Bloomberg purchasing this election is a unique threat to democracy and we need to start calling out all of the people who have shown that they are for sale. What's more, the argument about the Supreme Court picks carries little weight because of Bloomberg's conservatism. At best we'd get someone like Justice Kennedy. At worst, we could end up with another Scalia based on Bloomberg's harsh brand of conservatism. --Mayor Pete had a horrible weekend. Amy K thrashed him in the debates. New Hampshire ripped his soul at with the #WallStreetPete chant, and Joe Biden sonned him with a new ad that makes him sound as inexperienced as he is. Poor Peter. --Finally, Sanders has the movement to beat Trump. Anyone saying otherwise is a goddamned liar.
