It's also unimaginable that morons voted for him twice.

Eight years of the The Dope from Park Slope has done so much irreparable damage.

I found it pathetic that Woke Bloomberg 2.0 had to apologize for all the success he had as a Republican mayor managing NYC when he was running for the democratic POTUS primary. Woke Liberals are insane.

It's fairly standard. Politics in the US works like a pendulum. Trump would never have been elected if Obama wasn't his predecessor. Same with Biden. Every election is more or less a reaction to the previous one.

Bloomberg overstayed his welcome by a term and in came the backlash. That's where BDB came in. If Bloomberg never ran for a third term, a straight up moron like BDB would've never been elected.

HE tried to pretend and play along the presidential race, but couldn't. Theatrics are not for him.

HE would have been a great president by the way. I've seen him at conferences, very able man.

He would have. It's a shame he has the personality of a wet suck and he was never going to pander to idiots.

I agree. I think he is very competent manager, doesn't matter whether he is a D or R. But he had to pander to the liberal base, and they didn't buy it. I'm a right wing nut job and I would not have minded Bloomberg as a D potus.

I couldn't stand his nanny state ideas. If he had is way, he would have gave us all a certain bed time.

He failed a major test when he apologized. Never apologize to the wokesters, it reeks of weakness.
