Donald Trump Disregard For Rule Of Law Puts Officials In Awkward Spot | ...
Moscow Mitch is in agreement with Trump's assertions of lawlessness.
There's no proof that Trump's sycophantic appointments to head agencies, will allow these government employees to follow the law or even enforce it. No excuses, that's where we are today with Barr in charge of the Justice department and with clearance to mess with intelligence department files.

Bloomberg Got Kicked Right In The Coin Purse
Bloomberg didn't think enough of Americas intelligence to prep for the debate! Instead the debate revealed terrible things that his ad campaign was concealing and we saw him try to counter with obvious deceitfulness. That came across as sheer arrogance as if "I have enough money to make your concerns not matter!"
Ocasio-Cortez DESTROYS Meghan McCain live on air, gets huge ovation
I keep trying to explain: High tax rates on high earners harm no one. Most high income earners did not make their money as salary or wages, they made their money through stock ownership, options and stock in place of cash bonuses. If high pay (over 200k) is heavily taxed then CEO's can't get boards to give them 100 million dollar pay days because the tax on it would be 90 million or more. So, the CEO's have to take stock and/or options, which means that, for them to make money the stock must perform and for the stock to perform the company must perform. If the company performs everyone makes money and the CEO get over like a bandit. Today, with low tax rates, CEO's get huge pay checks even if the company is heading into bankruptcy. Which is why CEO's have little reason to care if the workforce is happy. They get paid either way.
Anyway, Republican must not forget WMD's that did not exist but cost use 25 billion in Iraq reconstruction money. Nor the trillions lost on their Mr. Bush's mishandling of the F.I.R.E (financial industry) the deregulation that allowed the sub prime mortgage disaster. But healthcare for all? Like Costa Rica has and can afford? Or free college for all like Germany has and offers to any American who wants to come and get it. The republican show stopping question is "how much does it cost?", My answer is, not as much as you people have wasted on nothing that has done us any good!

Bloomberg Offers To Release 3 Women From NDAs | Deadline | MSNBC
His problem was that he didn't realize that, what he was effectively saying is, those people wanted NDA's because they didn't want to talk about those incidents. Thus, if that were the truth, then releasing them would only reveal that they really didn't want to talk about it. Because a release doesn't require them to talk if they don't want to, thus him resisting the idea of releasing them, seemed to say that it was he who wanted to ensure their silence. I was left wondering why he wasn't able to quickly see the problem and offer the releases, which would have defanged the situation. Instead he appeared stunned, surprised and helplessly ensnared in a web of his own deceit. Now that time has passed and his team has been able to figure out how to answer, it's too late. He appears to have had some age connected deficit, a "senior moment" if you will. It will be difficult if not impossible to come back from the image shattering blows he took after having so many carefully crafted images of himself as a glorious saviour, so widely displayed. Making his campagne appear to be all buck and no bang.

I don't see Bloomberg as an "enemy" of the people, I just don't feel he would be the best choice at this time in history. In fact he seemed to have aged considerably on stage, he's no longer the snappy scrapper he used to be. While Bernie is just the kind of irreverent fighter we need him to be.

Healthcare for all is too costly, even though a country as small as Costa Rica can do it. Huh? Costa Rica can do what America can't? Germany has free college for all, but America can't do it? What in the world is going on Why can't America do what other, much smaller economies can! Oh, it's "socialism", right and we're supposed to e terrified of that boogie man. But, criminals, jailed for stealing poor peoples money are being pardoned. What a country!

Like at the debate he says that women have signed NDA's because they don't want to talk about it.
Well, just releasing someone from an NDA, doesn't mean they HAVE to speak about it, they can still choose to remain silent. So, his refusal to release them from their NDA's translates into HE doesn't want them to talk about it. He got shredded at the debate on too many serious issues. Too bad, his ads made him seem to be the ideal candidate, but that wasn't true. So sad!

In other words; you're being lied to by the insurance and pharmaceutical companies who want to keep their profitable, if broken, systems. The fact that 70k people are losing their lives matters not to them. "Socialism, Socialism, Socialism", they scream "too costly, too costly, too costly", they scream and yell at you to scare and turn you off to things that would be good for you, because it would be bad for them, same as the cigarette companies did. They did not care about public health, they just waned people to keep smoking and dying so they could continue to rack up billions in profits. When will we ever learn, eh? Don't do the stupid, be sure to Stop, Look and Listen to the information available instead of being stampeded by memes without evidence.

Why Bernie Sanders And His Message Resonates With Younger Voters | The 1...
Bernie may have a Democratic senate, the "communist/socialists" memes aren't working because people are getting smarter, they're realizing that many of the wealthy are not wealth builders or even captains of industry, but are just inheritors. While technology has taken many jobs out of the economy even while putting more money and power in the hands of the few. Thus, it only makes sense that citizens get their health guaranteed by the government, because not everyone even wants to be rich. Many just want to live their lives and enjoy being with their families. The least the government can do is what other first world nations are doing and assure each and every citizen good healthcare without forcing them to go broke to get it.

How Michael Bloomberg Is Going After Trump On Social Media | Morning Joe...
The problem is he didn't "stop, look and listen", he didn't realize how much pain he was causing because he didn't stop by those nabes, he didn't look at the people being hurt and he didn't listen to those who were complaining. He simply stuck to the idea that blacks were the problem and they should be stopped and searched one and all, whenever, wherever and always. Now that it's a problem he's sorry. He could have been sorry sooner, he should have been sorry sooner but he wasn't until he needed the black vote, then it's "I made a mistake and I'm sorry!"
Of course youths don't yet realize the power of money, so they're unaware of how it buys the best commercials, the best endorsements and lots of "friendlies". They think that warm fuzzy feeling is coming from within themselves, when in reality they're being ensnared and encircled by cash hordes.

He's also spending billions behind the scenes, giving money to groups and causes to obtain their endorsements. What you will get is not what you are seeing, just like most stuff advertised on tee vee.
The product looked so good on tv, but when you finally get it home, you wonder what you could have been thinking. They sold millions of "Buns of Steel" and "Abs Blasters" etc., all collecting dust in closets across the land. The presidency requires a serious politician, not anyone even close to an autocrat who thinks he is right without looking at evidence and listening to his/her advisers. Be warned and spread the word.

Stop asking these people to show some integrity, they have none and they don't believe in the U.S. Constitution. They think they have absolute power simply because there are no hard and fast rules that say they don't have it. The founders believed that the people would realize the risks that come with the caprice of a dictatorship and reject it so resoundingly that it could never get started. Yet, here we are with a dictatorship getting started and people remaining silent about it.

Hahaha, great job if you can get it eh? Question: are you fooled by a slick paid for campaign? Or do you appreciate the candidates who actually get out there, state their positions and press the flesh on the rope lines?

The problem with Bloomberg is that, like the racists, he refused to look at the data, the statistics and/or hear the pleas of the people he was afflicting. Unfortunately, racists do this too and that suggests that he is of a mindset with racists. He is persuaded by racist memes and that is not something that can be forgiven without clear hard proof of change of mind/mentality. How many blacks does he have and in what positions on his campaign? How many black businesses does his campaign patronize? Or is it just "talk black, while staying wrapped up in white"? George Wallace made is change believable. Bloomberg, so far has only responded with rhetoric in defense of his campaign.
