Newly minted presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg won’t talk about President Donald Trump’s globe-trotting, headline-grabbing personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani for a very specific reason — he’s also the former mayor of New York.
Ummmm… No. Just. No. One thing for Presidents to be delicate about their successors, because of the potential to undermine the office.
But no comment on your predecessor mayor??? What’s next, “I have no comments on my predecessor as dog-catcher, due to the dog-catcher Cone of Silence”…
Tone deaf.
Don’t waste any more of your money on your presidential run, Bloomberg. Your staff and pollsters won’t tell you, but you’re done.
Incredibly weak sauce.
Bloomberg just killed his own vanity campaign.
Newly minted presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg won’t talk about President Donald Trump’s globe-trotting, headline-grabbing personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani for a very specific reason — he’s also the former mayor of New York.
“Bloomberg said he wouldn’t talk about Giuliani, citing a no-comment policy about his fellow Big Apple mayors that he’s followed ‘religiously’.”
Utterly disqualifying.
The Republic (literally) faces a Constitutional crisis, and this shrinking violet defers to comity?
The party should call out Bloomberg publicly on this self-own.
He can shove his campaign and his selfish personal need for high-society deference.
Bloomberg’s height and his candidacy have at least one thing in common: they’re both short
Rudy is a central figure in the biggest political scandal to date - up to his neck in the Ukraine extortion scheme - but you won’t answer any questions about him?
Time to step aside and point your money faucet elsewhere.
Just pour some of your gazillions of dollars into other campaigns or causes and call it good.
Bloomberg Won’t Talk About Giuliani, Citing No-Comment Policy For Other NYC Mayors
If Bloomberg is thinking that that will prevent Giuliani from talking about him, he is in for a very big disappointment.
This is total bullshit. He’s a damned chicken. I can see withholding comment on Mr G’s administration in NYC. But his current career? What makes him immune simply because he was caught asleep at the wheel one day in 2001?
Holding office (in this case NYC mayor) is not a get out of jail free card for the rest of your life.
Bloomy is way off base here.
I really hope Ghoulani didn’t get one of those cards, but maybe he did and that’s why he’s such a reckless loudmouth.
“I have followed that religiously for the last six years, whatever it’s been, and I’m going to continue, so I can’t help you.”
I was just going to say “fuck you”, but yours is better for mixed company.
Bloomberg understands Omerta.
These folks have more in common on a fundamental level than I think many realize.
Pretty much a disqualifying position. Quit now, save yourself and the rest of us the trouble.
One a Republican, always a . . .
Everything you just said.
OT but …
Listening to Mitch McConnell talk about the decline of bipartisanship is like listening to Jeffrey Dahmer complain about the decline of dinner party etiquette.
