Tomorrow I will vote for Mike with 7 of my buddies

30 days ago we had diffent candidates we supported. From Warren to Biden to Pete. Last night we, with 1100 diverse Nashvillians , watched Mike Bloomberg take it to Trump in Nashville. We are all life long Democrats that work in politics at some level. 4 white and 3 black but friends for 20 years. We saw a man who can take it to Trump. We saw a man, who unlike the rest of the field, will self finance and destroy Trump and GOP. Yes, he's not our favorite on issues but we need a damn bully to take on this bully. Trump and the GOP will swamp the rest with relentless media and a massive money advantage. . We concluded that 2020 is different. Mike is the guy Trump fears. We are all in. Mike Bloomberg will defeat Donald Trump and humiliate him.in the process.

Mike Bloomberg in town tonight

Mike had crowds in the hundreds in both Chattanooga and Nashville. Former Nashville Mayor Karl Dean and Howard Gentry, a legend of African American politics in the city, endorsed Mike. There were was an African American mayor from South Carolina that spoke. Mike seems like a guy that is willing to spend whatever it takes to beat Trump. He's a man in his 70s and doesn't need to do this. I feel he truly loves America, the opportunities it has provided him and wants to save it from Trump. He says there is no limit to the resources we will devote to defeating Trump. He's not trying to "buy" and election but spending to defeat Trump. He's sharp, on point and can self fund a take down of the GOP. He has spent almost 100 million in VA on the 2018 and 2019 House and Gov races. He's spent 25 million on voter registration drives. Like it or not it's going to take 500 million- minimum to beat Trump. Mike has that in his sock drawer. Trump likes to tout his wealth, success and business savvy. Dear Donald. Meet Mike.

If your feeling down, at least your not

the idiot wearing flip flops at my gym. He has terrible bunions and dropped a kettle bell on his left foot 15 min ago. The scream was horrific. Ambulance here and he's been down for entire time. The YMCA is silent. Unreal

Policy fatigue moved me to Team Mike

2020 if different. Democracy is at stake. To be honest any of these candidates are superior to Trump. None will have Stephen Miller or Bill Barr on thier team. That said and given the consequences , I'm so tired of policy debates or what he or she said last week or a decade ago. At this stage I don't care how you differ on health care, taxes, or climate. It's better than Trump. Period. Our nominee, after a protracted primary will be broke. Trump and GOP have about 200 million to start thier relentless campaign against our nominee. The emails and fundraising will be distracting. One Man, Mike Bloomberg can literally smash this asshole from now till Nov and he's already started. He's not trolling old tweets or video to disparage our candidates. No, he's simply savaging Trump where it hurts- his ego. Mike has money ( a dirty word I know) to destroy these dirt bags. In every stare. In every distirct. He will.

Pete is the big winner. Now, the contest starts

Sanders won a state he should have won. But the improbable campaign of Mayor Pete leaves NH with a delegate lead. Combined with Iowa delegates, Buttigieg now has a total of 23, Sanders has 21 and Klobuchar has 7. Now, states with an actual minority population are voting. If no one reaches the 1990 and this goes to convention- Sanders will not ban the nominee. The party isn't going to nominate a Democratic Socialist. Bernie needs him really rack up delegates over next few weeks.

Demographic travisity of IA and NH

Our party is 40% non white. These two states, with an insignificant number of delegates, are 92% white. This race hasn't started

Sanders sending the dogs after Mike

Already a deluge of anti Mike propaganda. Sanders surrogates are ruthless. big-time. Maybe it's time for Mike to defend himself and define Sanders via a few months of 24/7, round the clock ads talking about how Bernies Democratic socialist agenda can't win in middle America. Maybe a cool 500 million ad buy? What do you think? His team produces some good ads.

What if SC and NV went first?

Two states that are demographically representative of our party. The idea that Iowa and NH set the tempo for this party is nuts in 2020.
