I was watching the Daily Wire yesterday and some excellent observations were provided on the show.
Some points given, among many, were that everyone took their turn striking the pinata, Bloomberg, but when it came to Bernie's turn, the pinata took the stick out of Bernie's hand and began to beat Bernie with it along the lines of BLM and months down the road the nude protester female wresting the microphone from frail Bernie.
What I thought about later is that Bloomberg took it to Bernie by pointing out (whether people thought about it then) the utter oxymoron in the minds of the average American of a multi-millionaire socialist, and it could potentially revive Bernie's attempt to hide his cessation of bashing both millionaires and billionaires given his status as a millionaire. Add to it Bloomberg making it tangible by describing Bernie owning three homes and it's no wonder that Bernie had to lie through describing a $600,000 property as a mere "campground."
All of this is what triggered Bernie to an enormous extent like I have seen few candidates on stage from either side in a long time - causing Bernie to nearly pop his top - with the proverbial smoke coming out from under his collar, complete with red-faced grabbing the side of the podium.
If Republicans don't take snapshots of Bernie's face they're missing it...
I noticed. Yes, everyone has three house. Everyone has a summer home.
Alot of this is what was going through my mind as I watched the obnoxious twit Bloomberg be throttled, only to see him turn the tables on poor Bernie.
It was definitely popcorn and coca-cola worthy.
“I wrote a best-selling book. If you write a best-selling book, you can be a millionaire, too”, Sanders told the New York Times. That doesn’t sound like a socialist to me. Obama would just say “You didn’t write that”.
I watched the whole debate. Bloomberg did jab Bernie a few times. But in that particular matchup I think Bernie came out ahead. Bernie spoke with passion of a true Bolshevik. Bloomberg was more like King Kong trying to swat away attacking airplanes.
GMTA I thought of the same quote. Bloomberg doesn’t have people as good as us.
Bernie may have been inches away from needing a cardiac care unit.
These two will fight it out to the end with Bernie having more delegates.
We’ll just have to agree to disagree
Bernie actually stammered somewhat and clearly lost his bearings, worse than I have ever seen from him.
Bloomberg was off his game fending everyone else off but not Bernie. In that case there was actually confidence on Bloomberg’s face
But leaving Bernie bleeding badly politically.
Works for me!
Campground? Why didn't he call it a Dacha?
Yes, you are right. He really did get at Bernie.
> These two will fight it out to the end with Bernie having more delegates. <
I think you’re right. But Bernie might not have the majority of the delegates. That will lead to multiple ballots, with the superdelegates voting. Bernie’s gonna get robbed again.
Side note to the BernieBots: Don’t take this lying down. Rage against the system!
I concur. I might leave tomorrow for my 600k “cabin.” /s
Another thing that Bernie has not been called out on is how he has funneled money to his wife via his campaign. It smells pretty bad when you hear the facts.
It will not matter with his hardcore supporters, but Bernie’s hypocrisy and self-enriching practices that appear corrupt will not serve him well in the general election.
Come to think of it - his whole platform will not sell well with a majority of Americans. If I could wave a wand, Bernie would be my choice for their nominee. This is why so many of them are panicked.
Insults were traded between two New Yorkers arguing!
When Bernie had the microphone snatched from him, the feed was cut. Bernie stood aside for Security.
“Security” stepped in, and gently put down a camera. (!)
Bloomberg seemed to begrudgingly take it from the rest, but not from Bernie.
“Bernie may have been inches away from needing a cardiac care unit.”
Only reason to watch.
Funneled?
Surely only elite, wealthy, bourgeoisie capitalists alone would dare fathom carrying out such a nefarious scheme?
Not a Socialist!
Oh, the humanity... LOL.
Or at least in the top 2 out of 10.
