I dislike mayor blooming idiot as much as anybody else but good Lord get a few paragraphs down and here’s this female author actually trying to make Christine Ford Blasey a victim.

I am so sick and tired of this PC victimhood.

Wow, the Atlantic is already doing a hit piece on Bloomberg, and he hasn’t even announced.

Guess the Deep State is really worried about ANY unapproved, outsider candidacy ...

Oddly enough, the article makes Bloomberg sound like an ordinary guy instead of his impassive public persona:

[“Bloomberg’s Sexual Blind Spot” is how The Village Voice summed it up in 2001. “Anti-woman obnoxiousness,” Cord Jefferson, then at Gawker, called it in 2013. Part of that obnoxiousness involves the many reports related to what Bloomberg once told a reporter: “I like theater, dining, and chasing women.” (He elaborated: “Let me put it this way: I am a single, straight billionaire in Manhattan. What do you think? It’s a wet dream.”) In his 1997 autobiography, Bloomberg by Bloomberg, the mogul bragged about keeping “a girlfriend in every city” during his years working as a Wall Street stock trader in the 1960s and ’70s. He is reported to have said, of the computer terminal that made his fortune, “It will do everything, including give you [oral sex]. I guess that puts a lot of you girls out of business.”

There’s more: Bloomberg reportedly saying to a journalist and the journalist’s friend, as he gazed at a woman at a holiday party, “Look at the ass on her.” (He denied having made that comment.) Bloomberg, according to a top aide, seeing attractive women and reflexively remarking, “Nice tits.” Bloomberg, mocking Christine Quinn, the then-speaker of New York’s City Council, for going too long between hair colorings. (“The couple of days a week before I need to get my hair colored,” Quinn once said, “he’ll say, ‘Do you pay a lot to make your hair be two colors? Because now it’s three with the gray.’”) Bloomberg mocking Quinn again, she said, for failing to wear heels at public events. (“I was at a parade with him once and he said, ‘What are those?’ and I said, ‘They’re comfortable,’ and he said, ‘I never want to hear those words out of your mouth again.’”) ]

It's shocking that he was referring to Helen Thomas.

What Bloomberg reportedly did concede is that he had said of Garrison and other women, “I’d do her.” In making the concession, however, he insisted that he had believed that to “do” someone meant merely “to have a personal relationship” with them.

yeah, right...

The reason alpha males make blatant sexual remarks at women’s expense is because they work so often.

There is therefore an incentive for alpha males to make such allegedly offensive remarks.

The incentive is that hott women dig alpha males and want to **** them.

So the proximate cause of alpha male behavior is women who encourage such behavior by ****ing alpha males who exhibit the behavior.

One would think one would not need to explain all of this to a woman, but after all, this woman is a journalist, and journalism is the major of choice for really stupid college students who would not be able to graduate with a real major. (Sorry if there are any journalism majors out there, but i am getting too lazy to sugarcoat my comments nowadays.) I guess the other possibility is that the author is not oblivious to all this, but that would mean she is a hypocrite and a ********. Oh well, I suppose stupid is the more charitable choice in this case.

Seems like a man who cares not about party, or principles, but only cares about power. Absolute power preferred.

I’ll bet if Bloomie had to spend the day at Walmart he’d be cured of saying “I’d do her” for good.

I would never say that because I’m a classier dude than Mikey. Me: “I wouldn’t kick her out of bed”

That was the New York business world even 20 years ago. Even today, probably.

Can you send this to all the idiots who are calling Bloomberg gay?

And get the word out that true "alpha males" don't call themselves "alpha males"?
