Showing Original Post only (View all)A serious question, why is Bloomberg helping Sanders? [View all]
I don't think it is kooky, conspiratorial or hateful to ask why Bloomberg is still in this race when it hurts Biden and helps Sanders.
The Atlantic discussed this this past week. Last night they asked it on MSNBC. Why is Bloomberg still in this when it helps Sanders?
Bloomberg is supposed to be smart. Bloomberg definitely hates Sanders. Bloomberg knows he is taking resources and votes from Biden. Here is a recent CNBC story. If those things are true, why is he still in?
Is it ego? Does he really want to be president? Is he going to drop out next week? Is he helping Sanders?
It is strange to me.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

Glad to see you broach this. Lets say Bernie has 1791 pledged delegates (45%) for the first ballot,

Pete just dropped out, so now Biden's chances have shot up to catch Bernie in terms of a plurality

I don't believe it...I see those polls but I said I would vote for Bloomberg if Biden failed.

Bloomberg is positioned to potentially take a lot of delegates on Super Tuesday
