I am truly a leftie — make no mistake about that. But right now Dem front-runner is someone I think is unelectable (Bernie). My first, and very enthusiastic vote, was for George McGovern, so I am experienced with GIANT losses. I’m actually to the left of Bernie and all his Bros on many issues. BUT IT IS TOO IMPORTANT TO GET RID OF TRUMP. KOS and ANY OTHER DEM GROUP MUST STOP BASHING ANY DEM WHO MAY NOT MEET “PURITY” TESTS. That includes BLOOMBERG. Cut it out. Bloomberg TERRIFIES Trump — and that’s a good sign he may be able to take him down. Is Bloomberg perfect? Far from it — but on certain issues (especially environment, gun control) he’s spot on. And Bloomberg certainly can’t be bought (as “Saint” Bernie was by NRA, voting their way for over a decade so he could be elected.) A lot of other issues are probably ones that Bloomberg would wind up moving to left on, because that’s where his base will be. Now I don’t expect “The Squad” to jump up and down with joy at working with Bloomberg, but you can’t pick your friends in politics. Unfortunately, BTW, most of The Squad has endorsed Bernie, and that in itself is a near death sentence, since Trump / GOP has demonized them. So DAILY KOS — knock it off. I saw something like 4 articles slamming Bloomberg. Who’s behind this? Please come clean and also start treating Dem candidates equally.
