Mike Bloomberg Changed Rules to Run for Third Term in New York

Breitbart: Billionaire oligarch Mike Bloomberg is running as the “anti-Trump,” casting President Donald Trump as a “bully.” “I bill myself as the un-Trump,” Bloomberg told a campaign rally last week.

But as mayor of New York City from 2002 to 2013, Bloomberg behaved like the authoritarian many Democrats believe Trump to be, changing the rules to allow himself to run for a third term, then voting to change them back. read more

  1. I thought everyone knew this. He ran first term as a Republican, second term as an Independent and third term as a Democrat. As noted in the story he changed the rules at the end of his “Independent” term to run for a third term then when he was a Democrat he shut the door behind him ensuring nobody could repeat his feat. I’ve been waiting for this to surface in a campaign ad durng the nomination but you can be sure that Trump’s gunslingers are sharpening their knives in anticipation.

  2. Bloomberg is an authoritarian who feels the rules don’t apply to him. He’s a busy little man and can’t be bothered with roadblocks like campaign laws etc.
    He knows how best to guide and control the existence of the nations peasantry if he wasn’t forced to lower himself by competing in the election. So, he buys the position.

  3. Funny enough but sd at CTH called this over a year ago when Bloomberg wasn’t even a consideration. The dude is one sharp political analyst.

    In the meantime, I have to admit I’m enjoying the hell out of reading the lefties tear themselves up over this. Damned any way they go.

    When the face of your ideology is Nancy Pelosi, Eric Salwell, AOC and Adam Schiff most sane people might do a bit of souls searching.

    The 1st Rule of Holes comes to mind.

  4. …that’s nothing. Wait ’till they change the rules for National Popular Vote so LA and NYC elect ALL of the Presidents going forwards.

    …and you wonder why he doesn’t give a fuck what farmers think..

  5. Butttttt it is Trump that really won’t leave because of his meme video where he is still winning in 2024, 2028, 2032….2048. Reality vs fantasy. But hey as a fascist democrat who cares.

  6. He can’t disguise his lust for power.
    And even when he displays that pernicious lust, in subterfuge to extend his usurpation of the mayoralty, picayune dictates on soda sizes and salt, pronouncements on the criminality of the darker racial types, his astounding admittance of his gross ignorance of things agronomical, his complaisance and complicity in the murder of the innocents, his utter contempt for those not of his “class,” to his seemingly infinite greed, people still support him!

    Lickspittles and sycophants watch his commercials between imbecilities and profess their support and admiration to the pollsters.

    Wobbles the mind!

  7. Mini mike is just your everyday typical megalomaniac. His unbridled lust for power is insatiable. Did you ever notice how some short people, such as Hitler and Napoleon, seem to have a complex that they blessed with omnipotent powers and should rule the world. Mike should never be in any position of power in any government. If he wants to be in power let him go buy an island somewhere. I’m sure that it will end up being the utopia he envisions.
