WHOA: These old comments by Michael Bloomberg on farming should END his campaign
Twitchy ^ | 02/16/2020 | Greg P

It appears former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg is also an expert on farming. As he tell it, anyone can do it as you just dig a hole, put a seed in, add some dirty and water and BAM — corn grows.

Have a watch:

Someone should do a remake of that song from Oklahoma!..,

Oh the farmer and the cowman should be friends
Oh the farmer and the cowman should be friends One man likes to push a plow;
The other likes to milk a cow;
But that's no reason why they can't be friends

Only this time it should be something like :

Oh the farmer and the mayor should be friends;
Oh the farmer and the mayor should be friends;
The farmer likes to pull a plow;
The mayor likes to milk the taxpayers:
And that's the reason why they can't be friends.

How so? Farming (mass production) takes a lot science, engineering, math and biology. It’s not a purely manual labor job. You might can say that hundreds and hundreds of years ago but even that took skills and everyone even the physically fit can’t just up and easily learn to be a farmer

Not really. A little ‘video magic’ by the desperate Mini-mike trying to make it SEEM like 0bama is endorsing him,

I’m actually a bit surprised that 0bama hasn’t publicly repudiated Bloomberg and admonished him for trying to fool the peasants into thinking he endorsed the little bastard.

The only reason I can see that he hasn’t is that 0bama wants to add to the chaos until he can unveil his actual preference at a brokered convention

Not just farmers. He was equally dismissive of machinists and, by extension, anyone who works at a job requiring operating tools or equipment. Like union operators?

I’m just telling the truth. All Bloomberg would have to do ispromise to continue or increase the subsidies.

If you’re a farmer, would you vote against getting another $30,000/year, because Bloomberg doesn’t have a high opinion of you?

No but Barry O is. Just saw a Bloomberg add with the usurper endorsing him.

I've seen that ad many times here in CA, and from what I've seen it's a fake endorsement. Meaning using older footage of Zero saying nice things about Bloomers and then patching it in to seem like an "endorsement." As always, I could be wrong.

bloomberg is a total piece of shit who holds the rest of us in comolete contempt; here’s a couple of great videos that tell us everything we need to know about farmers:

https://youtu.be/nziA33FrhoI

https://youtu.be/AMpZ0TGjbWE

btw, bloomberg would starve to death if it wasn’t for farmers

finally, there was an awesome TV ad a few months ago that included a short montage of the many, many skills a modern farmer must possess to be successful, and i’m unable to find it ... it was very short, but showed a farmer must be a mechanic, heavy equipment operator, meteorologist, agronomist, and have many other skills ... i’d be grateful if anyone remembers this ad and can post a link to it, because it says it all about farmers ...

I didn’t say anything about farmers. I was replying to something about factory workers and pointed out the UAW, where literally any idiot can get and keep a job.

All those guys were reinstated once the heat was off. Nobody was ever fired.

The man has not a clue.

If the asshole ever managed to read what the founders wrote about husbandry-thats what they called farming back then, he would see that they wrote extensively admiring them.

But WTF does that asshole care what the founders said. As long as you dont have salt on the table in front of you and get only one drink of soda per day. The dumb SOB cant imagine that without certain amounts of salt you can die of dehydration. Believe it or not..

On board my sub I could tell who the farmers were. They were the people who worked the hardest, they were use to it! I’d hire them over a city slicker without reservation.

Anyone can dig a hole, plant a seed, water it and corn comes up.

The trick is to do it a million times in one season and make a profit.

IOW, he’s buying delegates.

The question is; for who? He does appear to have too much baggage to be a viable candidate in the GE. But with a hoard of delegates under his control, he can wield king-making power at a brokered convention.

Think we’ve heard the last from Romney? Maybe not.
