Rivals Pile On Michael Bloomberg In His Debate Debut | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC
Are you going to tell your viewers what you’re getting in return for the millions in free advertising for Bloomberg, not to mention the millions, in what equates to, smear ads against Bernie Sanders?
Well, MSNBC took down its own video of the debate so maybe MSNBC shares your concerns. lol.
Sheekey is a poor excuse for a Bloomberg campaign manager. They can run all the TV ads they want, but they can’t stand in for Bloomers in the debates when it counts. Excuses, excuses, and still no legs. More Bronx cheers in the future.
Yale Study Says Medicare for All Would Save U.S. $450 Billion AND Prevent Nearly 70,000 Deaths a Year

BloomTurd needs to dropout already.
I get exposed to lots of doctors and nurses at work and like conducting my own Informal survey. So far, unanimous support for Medicare for all for varying and thoughtful reasons. They say a public option isn’t enough.
**Edit: I was shocked by this and had thought that just a public option and improving ACA was all that was needed. Now I am researching what I learned from the docs and am good with Medicare for all. If you are against or afraid of Medicare for all, I suggest you do some research.
NDA’s are complicated??????? Basically it is you can keep your job and we will give you money to shut up! He can release them, he won’t. Bloomberg is Trump!
He needs a Jewish head cap. All of those running should show the religion they back. I will vote for the one who separates religion from politics.

Yep NDAs = I’m paying you to stfu.
Why did MSNBC take down its video of the democrat debate last night?
They need to put it. Not all of us watch the television. We watch the YouTube primarily
NBC News put it up.

Because Bernie is still the front runner!!! You heard her ask him how are they going to slow down Bernie Sanders, didn’t ya!!??
Because it was a scene of a grisly murder of billionaire MiNi Mikey
@Thomas Jefferson 😂😂😂
You can clearly hear the GOP mentality responses in all his answers.
Jim Myers all those loss wages waiting in a hospital and higher taxes to cover it will sure make it worth it huh ? Oh that’s right you don’t work so you don’t mine sitting around for hours doing nothing
@Bad Bird Yes the USA have the best healthcare hospitals due to being the richest country , the problem is that the middle and working class can’t afford to use them . More than 60% of U.S. bankruptcies is due to health cost . You for one can’t afford to get sick and go to the best hospital there is in the USA . so I’ve got a question , are you really that stupid that you believe what you wrote?
Perro dehont what are you taking about , I’m a simple mechanics. My son had a collapsed lung he spent 5 days in the hospital. Two operations. 3 doctors. Only cost me 10 grand . I paid it all in cash . That’s a bargain
@Bad Bird Stay stupid, my friend. It’s all you got.
Jim Myers If you say so boomer
The real problem we’re having buddy is how to negate your filthy money🤑🤮🤢
Not even Bernie’s Medicare for all could heal those burns Mikey got last night
@PK Cazadores Bernie will educate you, don’t worry.
@esj8341 Oh, I’ve been following most politicians for decades. I remember when Sanders praised Ortega on camera, both before and after he slaughtered hundreds of innocent civilians in Nicaragua. That will be exposed soon if he is nominated. You can find it for yourself also if you would like. I’m probably a lot more educated on Sanders than 99.9% of his supporters. I’ve traveled a bit and seen socialism first hand. Last month I was surrounded by impoverished Venezuelans. Remember Sanders praising Chavez using socialism to create a dictatorship and take the wealthiest country in South American to the poorest in less than a generation? Sanders won’t be educating me on anything, and he will not be elected. He has no way to cover up his dark past. And for God’s sake, tell Sanders to brush his yellow AF teeth!
esj8341 what are you talking about! Democrats are not against white businesses men. Bernie is for all working class people not billionaires nor Corruption.
@PK Cazadores What do you not understand about medicare for all. Bernie will bring healthcare justice for all including to anyone who enters our borders. Bernie 2020!
PK Cazadores are you talking about the impoverished Venezuela the US government have put sanctions on? Crumbling their economy?
I haven’t seen someone on stage with less personality than Bloomberg since John Delaney was up there.
🤦spot on friend!!!
We are picking a ‘Presidential Candidate’. This is not ‘America Got Talent’ contest, friend. ‘Personality’ … really? 🙂
@Sarah Lee well Bloomberg has none of the above to offer the United States
@Lisa Skaggs Yes, Bloomberg = Trump – Bulls***. If that appeals to swing voters … why not? Everything else can wait till 2024. Remember if Trump wins in 2020, Supreme Court becomes 6-3 GOP … we can forget about passing any health care bills for next 20 years.
@Sarah Lee Debates are about differentiating candidates. Why not Bloomberg? Because he’s not the only choice.
Mike was our of his league
Chuck Todd needs to resign !!!
What for, not being partisan enough for you?
@ckaz007 I think being a moderator after calling Bernie’s supporter teams Nazi was a conflict of interests.
We already have a So-called Billionaire in the White House and don’t want another !!
Why !? Because Millionaires didn’t become billionaires by spending their money ….they became billionaires by spending your money and never forget that !! 🤬🇺🇸
Bloomberg tries to move forward, reporters and other politician won’t let this past behavior go, they keep hassling him, questioning him about his motives, just trying to find any little thing he’s done wrong. it must be so frustrating for him. WELL MYKE WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF STOP AND FRISK!!
Have any of you clowns even lived in ny? Little secret for you…minorities aren’t as against stop and frisk as tv makes it seem. I grew up in ny and only got stop once while visiting the projects where at one point people were dropping bodies like Iraq. So unless you black or Hispanic and grew up in ny don’t comment on the matter honestly. A lot of older blacks like my parents couldn’t careless if stop and frisk was still a thing. Granted some cops went over board both in employment of the tactic and how they went about it, like emptying the contents of people’s pockets on the floor. Those particular idiots just needed better training and a leash. But the concept as a whole had merit. Dudes walk around strapped here like it’s the old west.
@dax27b You are correct. After the program was stopped several older black ppl did not want it to stop. After all they have to live in areas that are affected like Queensbridge.
The ppl living there have been thru horrors and are trying to make their lives better.
A couple of years ago they had a celebration for going a year w/o a murder. No one can fault them for using any tactic to improve their lives.
he said he is wrong or was wrong for stop and frisk and admitted a mistake. It is a real man who admits his mistakes, says sorry I’ve learned. This contest Bloomberg is in for the first time will open his mind up to other changes in his beliefs as he talks to more people from around the country (voters). I think Mikes an honest man and he feels strong enough about getting rid of the lying con man that he has spent $350 million on attack adds. I just think talk difference in policy and leave the personal attacks for trump. No one needs to give trump any ammo, don’t do what trumps friends are doing the Russians/ digging up dirt on opponents.
This guy looks upset he had to come in when he had planned a hike today.

Yup to busy trying to get to the next state to try and take more Americans Rights away He ain’t got no time for that.
Of course there have been no law suits or charges against him. That was the whole point of having the NDAs…
Yeah Mike has his legs under him. That’s because they got shoved up his backside.
Bloomberg is more disconnected from reality than the rest of the Democrats are. That should tell you something.
Bloomberg got bulldozed by Warren last night 😂
Pocahontas got paid by Bloomberg to do this and Sanders just keep quiet.They are all ACTING in front of fake news camera. When are you people learn to wake up ? Jobs are out there and more than before since Donald Trump. Get a life and back to work.
I love how he talks about solutions to middle class issues as “fantasy”
A corrupt government can only be changed by a revolution
A bloody revolution.Not a sissy protest.
@Computer User
If we have a bloody revolution, who has all the guns?
I’ll answer that for you. We the Republicans do and we have been patient with the left for far too long.
So to all lefties. Shut your mouth, get a job, and take care of yourselves instead of stealing from us.
@Albert Green Well we will have to start getting them.
@Albert Green We will stop stealing if you give us a living wage,its that simple. No reason to steal if we have enough.
@Albert Green How can we steal from someone who has nothing to steal?
The only thing left was to see Bloomberg crying on stage. But it was good to see him get hammered
So he’s got a LOT of money—-you know what they say, you can dress a pig in a tuxedo but it’s still a pig
🤣😄😂 So true! Here’s a man who’s said who would marry you to an employee when she told him about her upcoming wedding. The man who complained why it was so hard to find childcare when all they had to do is get some brown person to look after it. And a monster who made a policy that was making being black or brown a crime instead of stopping crime.
So by your definition, Bernie is also a ‘pig’ … no? Remember, Bernie IS ‘rich’. Though Bernie prefers running with young people’s money … whom most can’t even pay their student loan … irony !
Money doesn’t care how you dress up. It is how much you can withstand its temptation.
What does that make Trump?
