The Dems have no candidate who can beat Trump; hence, their desperate attempt to defend Bloomberg for his obviously racist comments. They thought they might have had a chance with him, but now....
Oh, and Dems....Bloomberg is a big supporter of Israel. How do ya like them apples?
I would like to have heard the full thing. Not just that excerpt. I'd like to know if he was proposing something to help them? If he cited a reason why they have so much difficulty? Lifting just that little bit we don't know what it was all about.
This is what he said. No way to excuse it. He said that enormous numbers of black man don't know how to behave & participate in the workplace.
He told interviewer Jeffrey Brown: 'There's this enormous cohort of black and Latino males, age, let's say, 16 to 25, that don't have jobs, don't have any prospects, don't know how to find jobs, don't know what their skill sets are, [and] don't know how to behave in the workplace where they have to work collaboratively and collectively'.
And you already complained about the topic being worthless. Why are you still here complaining about the topic?
The real question is (this is for everyone) do you agree?
Bloomberg was putting up 127 million to help address it so if you agree then I assume you would also like to fix it which is what he was proposing.
These threads are for twitter only, actual black folk that have lived in inner cities have a complex view of these matters.
Actually he is mostly right, young black and brown males don't generally know how to behave or apply at jobs. Neither do most young white males these days. Having hit the ranks of the solidly middle age where i know a lot of people who do the hiring the stories i hear are amazing how out of touch some of these young people are. Then again its people my age who have raised these "kids" and not taught them how to present themselves and behave in a work environment.
Or..are you just not willing to admit that you like to cover for racists?
I'll wait...
Bloomberg identified a problem and has developed a program to help them. He's putting his own money behind it. He cares to see them succeed. I am impressed
He's really racking them up and hasn't won a single delegate yet. But some Democrats including many Black mayors & politicians it seems, love him for his Billions.
Nice story. He’s a terrible man.
But I gotta tell ya...if he’s the finalist against Trump.....

You forgot Needs to Stand on a Box to Make Speeches
How about just looking at statistics for a change! To fix or address any problem one must define it! Hello??? Most of the crime is from this group that he is defining. Why is it important to define the problem regardless if some dreamers think it is offensive? Because if you can't even define the problem how the heck can you solve it?
I am so tired of people living in fantasy land. People that don't look at statistics and pretend none of it is true just want to kick some can down the street and pretend it will go away. Guess what? That isn't real life. You must look at things as they are. Just like climate change. You look at a graph and study it. You try and define the problem and look for a solution.
How about getting into reality for a change instead of burying your head in the sand. I'll bet you believe in climate change. Why can't you look at statistics in crime the same way? Seriously!
He's is definitely going to be a real threat to Trump. I couldn't be happier.
Because the MSM and Pollsters have told you so. haha.
So far he hasn't won a single delegate after spending 10X the amount that Trump spent on his entire primary.
