Friend,
Last night's debate exposed Michael Bloomberg for the fake Democrat that he is.
Elizabeth Warren eviscerated him for his record of harassing women and for blaming the end of redlining for the 2008 housing crash. Bernie shredded him for trying to buy the election. They all called him out for stop-and-frisk.
Bloomberg was slammed for endorsing George W. Bush, funding Republican Senate candidates, and calling Obamacare a "disgrace."
Here's the really sad part: Bloomberg's record should have stopped his campaign right out of the gate—but instead, the corporate media took his money and gave him a free pass.
Bloomberg has spent more than $460 million on his campaign, from millions on Super Bowl ads to CNN spots to even more on commercials in YouTube videos. He’s lining the pockets of the executives in charge of the major media outlets, and he's touting policies that benefit the corporate execs and the rest of the 1%. In return, they’re trying to give him a free pass to the presidency.
