Streisand is Supporting Bloomberg

Rich people will always support other rich people. She knows that with Bloomberg, her money is safe. Fundamentally that's all they care about.

This will help him get the youth vote.

Boomers where I live are also supporting Bloomberg, seeing that Liz and Biden are fucking messes.

Bloomberg is evil. Trump will win easy because Bloomberg represents everything Democrats hate.

Don't lie to me.

[QUOTE] Boomers where I live are also supporting Bloomberg, seeing that Liz and Biden are fucking messes.

Bloomberg just hasn’t had the chance to demonstrate how much of a mess he can be. Christ, he hasn’t even been on a debate stage yet with these candidates and all of these people are jumping on the bandwagon? It defies all logic. He has done absolutely nothing to prove himself other than spend a bunch of money on some campaign ads, and these motherfuckers want to hand him the Democratic nomination for president?

Rich jewess who hates the poor endorses richer Jew who hates the poor...

In the last decade, she's become a grotesque caricature of herself that is so far up her own ass it isn't even funny. A feminist who still pals around with that fashion designer who defended Weinstein and dismissed his victims. Her bizarre ramblings about the accusers of Michael Jackson. All that pointless plastic surgery. Cloning the pets. What happens when people have too much money are too insulated.

Go play in your mall Barbra and leave politics to the adults now.

She has allowed Bloomberg to use "Evergreen" as his official campaign song, and now says they are two lights who shine as one.

Oh fuck off, cunt R7.

[quote] She has allowed Bloomberg to use "Evergreen" as his official campaign song

That's an odd choice to use as a campaign song. It's more apt for a wedding.

The bitch painted 𝑴𝒀 microphone white.

She's become insufferable. The horrible plastic surgery, the weird MJ comments. r8 gets it right.

Calmative? Please take a laxative as well.

Did it put the lotion on its skin? Or did it get the hose again?

Is it true she’s having a tag sale in the basement mall as a fundraiser for him?

[quote]That's an odd choice to use as a campaign song. It's more apt for a wedding.

They will be married in the spring.

I just heard that Troye Sivan is allowing Bloomberg to use his song"Bloom" for his campaign!

If she thinks it's totally fine for Michael Jackson Jackson to rape kids, why wouldn't she think Bloomberg has the god given right to rape the poor?

The poor have a lot more to worry about with four more years of Trump. Bloomberg's my least favorite but I will of course vote for him if it's him vs Trump because to do anything else makes you a dumb cunt.

Completely. Completely agree with OP. Ugh, it is disastrous.

Another endorsement that will turn people off.

Barbra shut up.

I hope Babs endorsement of Bloomberg will turn people off of Bloomberg.

The anti-Bloomberg trolling this weekend is serious. Trump is scared.

Bloomberg is great and would make a fantastic president. Can you imagine what a dream ticket Bloomberg/Pete would be??

How do you paint a microphone without ruining it.

You spray it.

Bernie is a Socialist and Bloomberg is an opportunist.

She's support Trump before she'd support someone who might take another dime of her billions. Billionaires stick together. In her entire filthy rich life, since she was in her early 20s she's been filthy rich, she's never done anything much for to help the poor. She's only "progressive" with trendy causes and even those she doesn't do much for, least of all part with her billions.

^^^^ Spot on

The opportunist wins, if he can beat Trump, because the socialist can't, R27.

As for R28, she doesn't have billions, clown. And she's been a Democrat all her adult life and supported them, from JFK to McGovern and so on. And what have YOU done?

The opportunist will not win especially with Bloomberg’s horrible record on minorities.

Well, then Trump will win, R31. And he's the biggest opportunist of all.

Forest, meet the trees.

If Bernie or Bloomberg is the nominee then the Democrats deserve to lose

But they'll also lose with Pete or Liz.

Pete’s an actual Democrat.

If we have the option of Trump being relected or our country turning into a plutocracy, I'm voting Trump. You don't think other Billiobiares aren't gonna do what bloomberg is doing if they realize they can literally buy the presidency? You better get ready for President Bezos in 2024.

We're already a plutocracy, Hunty R36.

She's given generously for women's health research. Like, A LOT. But this is still awful.

Rich people like her are willing to donate some of their money to liberal causes, so long as THEY control the pursestrings.

The idea that the country would have the effrontery to take her money, in the form of high taxes, is intolerable to people like her. Hence the support for Bloomberg, who will never ever raise her taxes. As I said, rich people will always support other rich people over anyone else.

The only thing that matters is who is Lisha supporting? She'sh got shome sherioush followersh.

But Streisand didn't vote for Trump, did she, R39? So much for "rich people will always support other rich people over anyone else."

[QUOTE]The opportunist will not win especially with Bloomberg’s horrible record on minorities.

Being horrible to minorities is exactly what got Trump elected.

Really, in a contest between which opportunist is more horrible, it's clearly Trump.

Whatever. As long as Trump loses, it’s fine with me.

IF Trump loses.

She had rich Hillary to vote for in 2016, idiot R41. She didn't need to vote for Trump. No decent person would vote for Trump or Republican Bloomberg.

[quote]But Streisand didn't vote for Trump, did she, [R39]? So much for "rich people will always support other rich people over anyone else."

Hillary is rich too. Streisand knew she had nothing to fear from Hillary about taxes. And she's a liberal, after all, so long as it doesn't hit her hard in the pocketbook the way Sanders/Warren would. I suspect she'll go very quiet if Sanders gets the nomination.

R46, you're the idiot--making Streisand the enemy. Get a clue, cunt.

"I suspect she'll go very quiet if Sanders gets the nomination."

Yeah, R47, you REALLY know Streisand.

HRC as VP?

oyVEY!

It's already been posted here that Barbra was supporting Bloomberg, as is most of older Hollywood.

Here she is with Joan Collins last week at a fundraiser for Bloomberg. Barbra looks like she's 40.

For the billionth time, that's not Joan Collins. That's Carole Bayer Sager.

Harrison Ford is also supporting Bloomberg, as are all the A-listers.

The only qualification in ANY candidate that matters is can they beat Trump. Count me as one of those who think Bloomberg has the best chance at that.

Joan looks great in r51

So does Carole Bayer Sager, R55.

Joan Collins has been making quite the splash in Hollywood over the past week. I thought she lived in St. Tropez? Maybe she's moved back to LA because of her age.

She's not supporting the gay? What a slap in the face.

However, she said that Michael Jackson's accusers being abused wasn't a bad thing, so of course she wants sexual predator Bloomberg in the White House.

It's also amazing how much Joan looks likes Carole Bayer Sager, R57.

Oh Mary, R58, go to bed.

R58, WE ALREADY HAVE A SEXUAL PREDATOR IN THE WHITE HOUSE!

I have no idea who the fuck Carole Bayer Sager is but the pics on her instagram are freaking me out: the work she's had done on her face is bad enough as it is but then she keeps putting silly photo filters on her face that make her look like a ghost.

That's What Filters are For

Here you go, R61. And believe it or not, she was once a thing.

Jaclyn Smith is backing Bloomberg too.

Carole Bayer Sager AND Michael Jackson together!

Joan Collins AND Michael Jackson together!

This proves that if Michael Jackson were still alive, he'd be a Bloomberg supporter.

Carol Bayer Sager AND Joan Collins together!

Streisand was born Apr 24, 1942. The media missed the important story that day.

The berntards trying to act like berner himself isn't rich, hilarious he's a politician whos part if the system too, he isn't your friend. No politicians are idiots.

so is Sam Donaldson

People are supporting Bloomberg because they see a "centrist" (debatable) with more money than God who's not a socialist who might win with all the resources he has to bear.

I have no idea, but if he can beat Trump (because Bernie can't), I'm all for it.

[quote] Maybe she's moved back to LA because of her age.

Why would Joan Collin's age cause her to move back to LA?

Wait a minute I smell a rat. In that Carole Bayer Sanger picture is Mark Burnett's wife, Roma Downey, a Trump supporter.

Wrong. R74. Roma Downey tweeted support of Greta Thunberg on Trump's attack of Greta. And this.

Old Hollywood are really moderate Republicans.

It beats being Trump supporters, R76. And no, they're not the same thing.

Bloomberg is a godsend for rich Democrats and older Democrats. They want an old white rich guy to be president, it makes them feel safe, because of all the other old rich white guy presidents we've had. It's partly why Trump's popularity hovers around 44%, because he's an old rich white guy and that part makes them feel like the status quo is being upheld.

I think it's a mistake to replace one crazy fascist millionaire president with a sane but still conservative billionaire president.

So it makes more sense to get behind a 78-year-old white socialist who will never win swing states, R78?

Mark Burnett needs to release the behind the scenes footage of Trump filming The Apprentice. From what Noel Casler says a lot of racist stuff was said by Trump.

as long as mike is spending money to do this, all the anit-bloomberg trolls can fuck off

It seems pretty obvious what the thinking is here: Sanders is a guarantee of Trump winning a second term, and Buttigieg, Biden, and Warren either won't win the primaries and/or won't beat Dump.

The thinking here is that a billionaire can win. I don't necessarily think so, but have at it, because none of them will beat Dump.

Let’s be honest: Jews will always support other Jews. That’s just a fact. Even Republican Judge Judy is supporting him.

It’s too bad gays don’t do the same and support their own (I’m looking at you Pete criticizers).

Election 2020 Revelation: Barbra Streisand is a Republican!

I think Sanders can beat Trump.

"Let’s be honest: Jews will always support other Jews."

When the two Jews who have the closest shot to beat Trump are Sanders and Bloomberg, R83, count me with those Jews.

unlike the other dems who just piss on each other, bloomberg is laser focused on taking trump out.

unless trump goes down, no one policies mean jack shit

go mike

[quote]This proves that if Michael Jackson were still alive, he'd be a Bloomberg supporter.

If Jackson were still alive he'd be sleeping in Lincoln's bedroom with Trump's grandchildren.

Bernie can’t win any swing states. And now that he’s floating Tulsi Gabbard as his running mate he for sure can’t win shit.

you can't be serious, even bernie couldn't be stupid enough to pick that cunt

Why did Bloomberg skip Nevada?

he wanted to saturate the country with ads and focus on the states in super tuesday. those are the ones in which he is now campaigning.

sort of a blitzkrieg approach

skipping the iowa shitshow was pretty smart in hindsight

ST will tell if his strategy worked

R15 The best of you bitches always draw me back to this cesspool.

[bold]LMFAO![/bold]

So apropos.

Barbra has always been a grotesque human being who cared only for herself. If you look up limousine liberal in the dictionary her photo is there. She's a greedy out of touch bitch who thinks she can live in the time of Roosevelt AND keep her billions. Oh, Barbra cares for the blacks and the immigrants. As much as she cares for children and Flint Michigan. Jews first. She's an obnoxious, pretentious, hypocritical hag. Name a hospital wing after her. The Barbra Streisand Tax Shelter.

Bloomberg is not considering Tulsi - how fucking ridiculous. He wants Stacey Abrams. As cynical as that is, she's an excellent choice. Every democrat knows she was cheated of the governorship of Georgia in a similar way that Hillary was robbed of the presidency. Stacey Abrams is a star of the Democratic party. Far more impressive than those other louts in the race. I do like Amy and Kamala though. Bloomberg can choose a heavy southern dark skin negro woman and not worry about who he turns off. He's buying his way in and Abrams would get many people on board. People just want the race war and persecution of the poor to stop. We remember stop and frisk and Bloomberg's plutocratic ways. He's not a mobster or a fascist. His intentions are about saving something of America and people are desperate to be saved.

I hate Streisand, but Obama would be pleased to endorse Bloomberg too as would the Clintons. Greedy fucks. They never really wanted anything to change, but at least Bloomberg could halt the culture wars and end racism and child poverty forever, right Barbra? She could sing Everything's Coming Up Roses at his inauguration. Badly. It's a bitter song.

Oh, dear, R94. Talk about a "bitter song." Looking at you.

You're a very sad and hateful ancient white fag R95, as your many other posts prove. You would be very lucky to be looking at me. There is a lot you could learn. But you can't touch.

Vote for Bloomberg or I'll "sing" again.

I’m voting for Doomberg and Buttitsagig!

Y’all are insane, she just tweeted one appreciative comment. She’s not endorsing Bloomberg, or any other “fellow Jews.” (Jeeze)

R61 well what’s funny is that because she puts the most unsubtle filters on herself, everyone else in the picture has it too. Hence, that pic of Babs with 20 yr old skin. Even more hilarious slash disconcerting is some picture of Carole Bayer Sager with Diane Keaton, who as we know is a roadmap of wrinkles, totally airbrushed too and it’s really freaky to look at her that way.

Back to the subject ...am I watching Fox News or something? All this demonizing of “liberal elites” as the “real enemy”...that’s just how they want us to think.

Shut the fuck up Betty and Dot over at R99 and R100.

If you’re not for Doomberg and Buttitsagig, FUCK U$&”/:;)$&?;($!77788888,,,,,,,,,,,,

Drip, drip, drip:

Billionaire Democratic presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg once told a female employee struggling to find childcare to hire 'some black,' according to a 1998 lawsuit.

r201 and Trump can't seem to pass a black female without calling them dump or stupid. He also called countries in Africa shit holes. But the real fun started when his Justice Department refused to step in when Republican fucks in North Caroline, Alabama, and Georgia did a massive purge of black voters from their registration list. Trump said equally racist crap in the 80s. So, we have two men that are racist, one is trying to take away my right to vote, the other thinks I look like a nanny service. I'll take my voting rights for 500 Alex.

George Carlin observed that Hollywood likes to support liberal causes, but deep down is fundamentally concerned with making money, which is the most conservative activity of all. So they're not truly liberal or progressive at heart.

Babs is a sad case. Her “gay icon” status is crumbling even further. I had that bitch’s number since her contempt for Judy on Judy’s show!

She looks slightly retarded, too.

Judy was like -

“This bitch...”

Barbra is on record saying she should pay more taxes and she will support whoever the Democratic candidate is unlike those members of the Bernie Cult.

She’s hoping to swan song at his inauguration.

Choosing between Trump and Bloomberg is like choosing between Nero and Caligula.

Streisand looks like a Gelfling.

Even though he is (barely) better than Trump, I'm still surprised she's supporting him. He's a terrible "democrat."

R107 well that's good to know, at least !

The only anti-gun, pro-choice Republican who believes in climate change.

There's so much to unpack from this thread, I'm not sure where to start.

Barbra Streisand thinks anyone would give two shits who she supports?

Carol Bayer Sager has an Instagram?

Jaclyn Smith was photographed without Bootsie Gumdrops?

[quote] Doomberg and Buttitsagig

Sorry to be dense, but I don't get the Buttigieg name joke. The "Doomberg" one is simple, but are we supposed to read the other one as "But-tit-sag-ig" (as some sexual gag) or as "Butt-its-a-gig" (as some gag on his not being seriously running or something)?

Bloomberg needs to get Air Supply to endorse him. That would bring in the votes.

R96=delusional queen.

Nothing whatsoever to do with Jewishness, nothing to see here, goy.

Boy, you're an old, bitter cunt, R105. You're also full of shit.

R116 Are you watching CBS Sunday Morning right now, otherwise it’s really random that you mention them?

All the rich, rich, RICH celebs supported Hillary too. That just pissed off the regular people in the swing states, not the racist hater ones who would have voted for Trump no matter what but those who voted for Obama twice. Let Bloomberg have his famous supporters. Good, that will just make sure he doesn't get the nomination. The real people will go for Bernie or by some miracle Warren.

Bloomberg/Streisand 2020

Streisand/Carol Bayer Sager 2024

As her voice has faded she has become less reclusive.

Follow Aiden Wolfe.

Remember how long people have been famous. Someone may come from humble beginnings, like Streisand or Paul McCartney, but they’ve been rich & famous for over fifty years. They don’t remember the old life and can’t identify with people nowadays who still live in humble beginnings. For 50 years they’ve been managing their money, trying to keep people from stealing it, trying to keep it away from the taxman, trying to invest it so it will keep producing more money, trying to figure out how much they need to make per year to continue their lifestyle for the next 20 years. Plus they give money to charitable orgs (Aside- I knew a woman who made a living advising billionaires and corporations where to donate money, how much they should donate each year based on profit & taxes - she became fabulously wealthy).

Of course she’s going to vote for Bloomberg. Her money will be safe.

Hopefully the Hollywood endorsements will do him in.

Nobody in the swing states gives a shit about Ms. Streisand and her ridiculous displays of wealth. In fact, most people hate her.

[quote]Nobody in the swing states gives a shit about Ms. Streisand

Does anybody in any state give a shit about Barbra Streisand and her political opinions? Maybe a few people over age 75 do, but I cannot imagine that a Streisand endorsement has any meaning whatsoever.

[quote]Why would Joan Collin's age cause her to move back to LA?

Because the French cast old hags out to see once they reach a certain age.

Mostly the Russian bots want us to believe celebrity endorsements mean nothing. I can only speak for myself as a diehard Barbra fan she has given many interviews that were right on about politics. Yes at almost 80 her voice isnt what it was when she was 20 ( sounded great last album) and has done and said a few thoughtless things but endorsing Bloomberg isnt one of them. The big picture is we must not have four more years of Rump.

What is so terrible about Bloomberg? First of all he is not Rump and a true billionaire. I'm sure he did a few unpopular things in NyC but wasn't it considered mostly a good job?

[quote]I cannot imagine that a Streisand endorsement has any meaning whatsoever.

It does to her. I'm sure she thinks people will be fascinated.

[quote]What is so terrible about Bloomberg?

I think there's a good case to be made that Bloomberg would be as bad as Trump or even worse. For him, EVERY SINGLE THING has a price and can be bought or sold. That's just as corrosive to democratic institutions as authoritarianism.

right, a public option on health care and increasing taxes on the wealthy is worse than trump

Bloomberg media spending passes $400 million.

Data from political ad tracker Kantar/CMAG shows the former New York City mayor spent roughly $417.7 million as of Sunday morning, which according to CNN's David Wright, also includes futures reservations.

The amount is 10 times as much as Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, who leads the delegate race in the contest, have each spent. Here's a look at ad spending through today (including future reservations:

Bloomberg: $417.7 million

Steyer: $193.6 million

Sanders: $41.8 million

Buttigieg: $40 million

Warren: $21.4 million Biden: $12.3 million

Klobuchar: $10.6 million

Gabbard $5.4 million

As Bloomberg's spending has increased, so has his poll numbers. The former mayor has nearly doubled his support from 8% to 14% in just two weeks according to, RealClearPolitics national average.

I’m all for Bloomberg buying the election if it gets us rid of Trump.

We've had about 1% of Americans vote. I'll wait for a few more to chime in before freaking out over any of the remaining candidates being over.

If Bloomberg gets the nomination, I'll happily vote for him.

ANYONE but trump means ANYONE.

I didn't take it as an endorsement of Bloomberg.

Bloomberg spending that enormous amount of money is an embarrassment. A huge display of wealth, excess, and tremendous waste.

embarrassment to whom? not to him obviously and not to those of us who want to see trump taken out

Barbra, listen to this woman

Bernie is a COMMUNIST.

Makes sense that Babs will go for Bloomie. I am for Bloomie myself. I am middle class and not Jewish, so there!!!

I decided last week before I heard anything about Barbra's pic...I am supporting Bloomberg too. Anyone but anyone but anyone but anyone but Trump. That means anyone. As long as he/she is running on the Democratic ticket.

Let's get rid of Trump. If it takes Bloomberg's money, I'm all for it.

I'm a fan of Biden, Pete and Warren. But Bloomberg is a fighter and can tangle with Trump better than anyone. When Trump goes low, we go lower. That's what it takes to win against Trump. Civility won't work.

Of course she’ll only support a Jew.

Who?

I'm not Jewish and not rich, but Bloomberg can beat Trump. Sanders cannot.

Bloomberg and Sanders both cannot beat Trump.

Y’all all said Hillary could be Trump too.

[quote]right, a public option on health care and increasing taxes on the wealthy is worse than trump

Get real. Bloomberg wouldn't do either of these things, no matter what he says now. He would be reasonably good on climate change and that's it. Otherwise his big initiatives would be to ban big containers of soda and hold state dinners. He couldn't care less about ordinary Americans. He is fundamentally a Republican and always will be.

Sanders could easily beat Trump (indeed, he consistently beats him now in head-to-head polling) if people didn't fall for the stupid and meaningless "He's a socialist/communist/alien" routine.

One hand they dont like Bernie because he is a socialist but have no problem with Rump kissing Russian ass.

Bernie’s own people are now protesting him, tits out. Watch out, Mike!!

How is Bloomberg fundamentally a republican? He is extremely pro gun control, extremely pro-choice and extremely pro gay rights. These are fundamentally the ideals of a democrat. Is there anything more important to a democrat voter than (less) guns, choice and gays?

he's not, it's just bernie/russian bullshit

This Tweet by Streisand is not an endorsement. It is a Tweet about Bloomberg’s positions and philanthropy. She right. He is personally paying the UN American contribution to climate initiatives since the Trump admin canceled- he has spent tens of millions funding gun control initiatives and many other significant philanthropic activities. She is merely pointing that out. The OP’s post is troll bait.

By the way- there are many paths to universal health care- and most nations who have developed such programs have included regulated private as an option- most in fact. Bernie’s proposal is probably not practical because is involves ending one of the largest businesses in the US. But I’ll vote for him if he’s the candidate. I hope he’ll be flexible because he will be taking on stakeholders of enormous power. Nations that have entirely public health care are those who created it before modern health care insurance developed in their nations. I see a public option combined with regulated private-

And FYI, Bloomberg has pledged to spend at least a billion on ads opposing Trump even if he is not the candidate. He know how rotten Trump is and what’s at stake. His anti Trump ads on Facebook are pretty damn good.

Bernie's not a Democrat. Only 53% of Bernie supporters said they would support the Democratic nominee if Bernie is not the nominee.

If Bloomberg doesn't get the nomination don't hold your breath waiting for him to spend his money for the nominee and against Trump, especially if it's Warren or Bernie. Of course so many of you believe everything a politician says when he or she is running for office. The thing is Bernie has been saying what he's saying now for decades, long before he ever dreamed of running for president and Warren has been saying what she's saying now forever too. But that's about it. The others, especially Bloomberg are lying like a rug. I lived through Bloomberg's 12 years and everything he is saying in his ads are lies. They might believe it in bumpfuck somewhere but those of us who lived through the Bloomberg years know he's lying though his teeth.

Bloomberg is fundamentally a Republican because he was a Republican for a lot more years than he's been a Democrat.

Mostly he's an opportunist and a prick. If he manages to buy the nomination, I'll vote for him.

Anyone but trump means we'll accept Bloomberg too.

Anyone but trump. Anyone.

Vote for anyone but Trump but let's hope it isn't Sanders.

[quote] Bloomberg is fundamentally a Republican because he was a Republican for a lot more years than he's been a Democrat.

Untrue. He only became a Republican in order to get elected mayor of NYC. For most of his life before and since, he's been a Democrat.

I lived through Bloomberg’s tenure as mayor and like most NYers I believe he was one of the best ever- oh he made mistakes- but he was a great mayor.

PS, R157 is a troll.

I lived through Bloomberg’s tenure as mayor and like most NYers I believe he was one of the worst ever- oh he made mistakes- but he was a shityy fucking mayor.

Fixed, R161.

Bloomberg the phone piece of shit. Read if you don't want to end up voting for Trump II

[quote] I lived through Bloomberg’s tenure as mayor and like most NYers I believe he was one of the best ever- oh he made mistakes- but he was a great mayor.

Yeah, just fantastic if you enjoy having a Duane Reade or an IHOP or some other chain shit on every corner, a zillion blocks' worth of interesting businesses and halfway affordable apartment buildings razed to make way for luxury highrises where Russian and Chinese nationals buy condos they'll never occupy, and an ever-widening divide between the one percent and the rest of us.

The price of NYC real estate has nothing to do with Bloomberg- it’s been one of the most expensive cities in the world for about 100 years- it’s called supply and demand. When half the world wants an apartment in Manhattan... The CPW condos are a reflection of huge international money looking for a landing. Same thing going on in London, Paris, Shanghai etc., and smaller venues like the Hamptons, Nantucket, Rancho Mirage, San Fran etc. My guess is you’re a Bernie bro. Sigh.

Closing down the only hospital in the West Village and selling the building to one of your real estate developing besties, who turned the building into luxury condos, has nothing to do with supply and demand, R166.

[quote] It’s been one of the most expensive cities in the world for about 100 years- it’s called supply and demand.

No shit, Sherlock; of course, NYC has always been expensive, but Bloomberg has a lot to do with the fucked-up way the demand for real estate has been met in recent years.

[quote] My guess is you’re a Bernie bro. Sigh.

Can't stand Bernie, but nice try, Mary.

R166 is charlie. An ancient nyc jew queen with money who worships streizand.

Bloomberg did not close down St Vincent’s. It had been hanging on by fumes for decades- I’m in the healthcare world. He had nothing to do with that. Your language in your posts give you away- although you probably don’t know that.

Stop with the Datalounge detective horseshit, r169. R166 is a stupid twat who apparently thinks the only goal of city planning and management should be making as much money as possible by selling shit off to the highest bidder, but you have no idea whether or not he's "Charlie" and the antisemitism pretty much negates any point you might have had.

So the answer was to sell it to a billionaire real estate developer, R170?

Take the only hospital in the West Village and close it and turn it into luxury condos, R170?

Exactly, r172. St. Vincent's had problems, but a more useful solution for neighborhood residents would have been figuring out a way to maintain a better-run, financially viable hospital in that space.

R170 seems to think a hospital "running on fumes" is better suited to be a luxury condo building lived in by the likes of Rosie O'Donnell than a better-run hospital.

St. Vincent's was THE hospital for AIDS patients. Now it's 5 million dollar apartment units. Thanks, Mike Bloomberg.

[quote]I’m in the healthcare world. He had nothing to do with that. Your language in your posts give you away- although you probably don’t know that.

Hey charlie! Yes, your language does give you away. charlie the old bitch historically supports all the worst people. He never was really allowed into their world. Of course R166 is that old yenta hankie salesman aka charlie. Some of us DO KNOW. I hate that ancient old queen.

Better than supporting Bernie

Yes, true, R178. One cunt is better than another.

Especially when the biggest cunt is Trump.

I Like Mike!! And the coloreds. Michael Jackson loved those boys and they didn't complain did they? Stop and Frisk - what's the big deal? Harvey Weinstein is coming for Sunday roast. He's in charge of the inaugural BALL. I might lip synch in a nice Donna Karan. Show some tits. Stop NUCLEAR WINTER!! No WALLS!! Buy it on itunes. My wig IS crimped.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

Oh seriously I can’t stomach all these Fran Leibowitz - esque laments of how Bloomie “ruined New York” — r166 is right, it’s been going in this direction for decades and it’s called globalization — it’s happening in every upscale city and suburb and the result was inevitable. But then you have people like FL whining about the “good old days” of the Lou Reed/Laurie Anderson NYC and how Bloomberg turned it into a shopping mall, blah blah blah, it’s so freaking tiresome , and that hag needs to let go of that era she so annoyingly and predictably fetishizes. Pffft.

Fran Lebowitz doesn't have nostalgia for the "good old days," R183--in fact, if you actually listened to her, she says if it seemed better years ago, it was because one was young, or younger, and being young in NYC is always better. THAT'S actually what she said.

As for Bloomberg: I've lived in NYC since the late 1980s, and there's never been a good mayor in all that time, and Bloomberg was certainly as bad as Giuiliani. Bloomberg closed the only hospital in West Village ad sold it to real estate cronies for luxury condos. He added bike lanes to already cramped streets, he meddled in nonsense things like soda consumption, and yes, he helped make NYC one great big playground for rich people and spawn of oligarchs and other foreigners who buy $50 million apartments for money laundering purposes and don't live in NYC.

So hard hitting, R181.

right on, joe bro,

your record can't be erased

but with a sincere apology

it could be forgiven

[quote]Bloomberg ...was a Republican for a lot more years than he's been a Democrat.

total lie

bloomberg was a democrat most of his life, he registered as a republican in 2001, as an Ind. in 2009 and re-registered as a dem in 2018

facts>bullshit

R167, Bloomberg had nothing to do with the closing of St. Vincent's.

don't confuse the bros with facts, they get triggered

We are now guaranteed that one of the worst candidates will win the nomination. Then that OLD man will take Stacey Abrams for a bad ride. And Trump will remain president until his daughter takes over in 2024.

Trump was a Dem until he decided to become a Repig before running. If Bloomberg can beat Trump regardless of his past party affiliation, I'm all in.

I don’t thinkBarbra openly supported Hilary until after she became the Democratic candidate.

R189, he absolutely did.

[quote] Streisand is Supporting Bloomberg

Because she agrees with this ?

Mike Bloomberg said 'many black and Latino males' don't 'know how to behave in the workplace', in newly unearthed 2011 interview

he billionaire, 78, made the assertion during a 2011 interview with PBS, which is now going viral amidst outrage over Bloomberg's other controversial remarks.

In the 2011 interview - conducted while he was serving a third term as New York City Mayor - Bloomberg attempted to a spruik a new initiative to enhance employment opportunities for young men.

He told interviewer Jeffrey Brown: 'There's this enormous cohort of black and Latino males, age, let's say, 16 to 25, that don't have jobs, don't have any prospects, don't know how to find jobs, don't know what their skill sets are, [and] don't know how to behave in the workplace where they have to work collaboratively and collectively'.

^ Bloomberg said much worse than that R195. His racial profile recordings were released. He's racist and a realist. Ugly little old Jew. Buys his way in and out. Disgusting capitalist who put the final nail in NYC. Everything is a $$$ transaction to the tiny ole mayor. "He's richer than Trump but the same age as Bernie" is not a winning slogan. But a not bad strategy. I am anyone but Trump, but I do hope that Sanders is the nominee at this point. If he makes it against a 2 billion dollar Bloomberg campaign with a Streisand endorsement - won't that say something? Some Jews are for the people. People will come out for Bernie. As much as they say they won't, even Datalounge will. Bloomberg has tiny good intentions and a HUGE ego. We need a benevolent despot now. Not one of the richest men in the world. Sanders has grand intentions and a bit of time left. Barbra doesn't want to pay for that. She thinks her future puppy cloning foundation will suffer. Not to mention the Barbra Streisand Foundation for the Study of Barbra Streisand.

R196 is wildly contradictory, ranting, and schizophrenic in their anti-Semitism:

"Ugly little old Jew" "Some Jews are for the people"

There's nothing contradictory about the truth R197. I invite people to review your posts on this thread and others. You are a violently misogynist, racist and hateful old white man. (And you don't like Bloomberg.)

Some Jews are for the people. Not Barbra Streisand. Got it?

R198 anyone who says “ugly little Jew” with no compunction whatsoever is anti-Semetic, sorry to break it to you.

But carry on with your bigotry.

R196. Thank you, blessed person. I needed this tonight.

He's an ugly short jewish man? You like that better R199? Y'all got a big mouth and a lot of opinion up your ass. I ain't a bigot. I'm honest. Call me a nigger - go on. R197 is dying to. And I won't mind. People should say what they mean. Did I say "that ugly little jew should die?". NO. I just described him. Could be bigoted - but look elsewhere for bigotry. I wish you the best in your quest for recognition on Datalounge R199. I see your attempts. We all want to be heard. I have a lot of opinions too. Aim bigger dude. You think by avoiding certain words that you avoid being bigoted? I've read your posts.

Ugly men.

R198/R201, you're a silly, stupid, tedious cunt. But thanks for giving me a hearty laugh, you clown!

R194, at the time of its closing, St. Vincent's was between $700 million and $1 billion in debt and was losing $5 to $10 million a month. What did Bloomberg have to do with this?

R204, Bloomberg, the great businessman was now in charge of NYC, not only supposedly had the business acumen, but the responsibility as mayor to turn around the fortunes of the only hospital in the entire West Village--a hospital that served more people with AIDS than any other hospital in NYC during the epidemic. Instead, it was treated as losing business.

First of all, it's a hospital--it's not supposed to be profitable. It's supposed to be funded and supported. Instead, a real estate developer crony of Bloomberg's had the clearance to take it over. A mayor who's responsible doesn't see the only hospital in a large neighborhood in Manhattan close. He sees it through to being bailed out. He could have saved the hospital himself with the money he's spent on this fucking laughable, vanity Presidential run.

Bloomberg treated NYC as a business that was to turn profit.

Don't tell me, R204, Bloomberg had nothing to do with this. He allowed it to happen.

Biden for the nominee.

Bloomberg may be the only one who can beat that mutherfucking troll that's in there now.

That remains to be seen, R207, especially after tonight's debate.

To summarize

Has Streisand commented on his debate performance?

If BERNIE wins the nomination fair and square I will not vote for him. Not sure what I will do because I am an independent who almost always supports the Dem candidate, but for me, Bernie is a extreme socialist, almost communist and that is not for me. If he wins, I will hope he is a success, just like any other President.

Well, she does look like a horse faced lesbian these days.

Streisand is so in touch with what America needs.

Bloomberg looks like waste material from Streizand's reconstructive surgeries. They have similar personalities too. Pissy, defensive, arrogant, humorless, boastful and delusional.

Lost any respect I might have had for her.

R214, Streisand (with two s's) is NOT prissy or humorless. Nor does she have a personality similar to his. That's just not accurate.

"A very generous man who puts his money where his mouth is... especially about climate change, gun safety and so many other good causes. Donald Trump’s foundation was shut down for fraud."

This is a statement about Bloomberg's philanthropy. No more, no less as I stated previously. It is not an endorsement for President. Stand alone the statement is accurate and true. Mike B. has donated much more money than Donald Trump's entire worth. The OP and others are click baiting and reading in bullshit.

The first time I heard Bloomberg speak was last night and wasn’t impressed. I don’t think think we should judge him as another billionaire though. Rump isn’t one.

It wasn't just OP, Charlie.

If you read what you posted, R219, you would have seen this: "Superstar Barbra Streisand praised Michael Bloomberg for pouring his billions into “good causes” Saturday even as she tweeted Superstar Barbra Streisand praised Michael Bloomberg for pouring his billions into “good causes” Saturday even as she tweeted a critical investigation of how the ex-mayor has leveraged his philanthropy for political gain."

So...she tweeted a critical investigation of how the ex-mayor has leveraged his philanthropy for political gain.

Does that sound like an endorsement to you? It shouldn't because it isn't.

The lie in the Daily News it that Streizand is a superstar. Nobody even knows who she is anymore. Dolly and Cher have 10 times the followers of Barbara.

If you read the headline of what you posted, R220, you would have seen this: "Barbra Streisand backs Bloomberg".

Does that sound like an endorsement to you?

He probably agreed to help finance Gypsy.

It's finally coming, gays! Christmas of 2027!

Oh, R221 is just a garden variety Babs hater. One of the truest of DL bottom feeders.

Can anyone tell me what's the significance of the "z" in the anti-Streisand troll's use of her last name? is there some kind of dreary significance?

Would Amy make a spectacular Rose?

Dreary significance? You've posted over 45 times on this thread R224!! All that ancient lisping queeny posturing. Calling grown men cunts while defending Barbara's honor. There's no F A G like an eighty year old Streizand fan. Maybe you and charlie can get together and scissor later? Leave the men alone.

Nothing amuses me more than when some broken down DL queen cites the number of times someone has posted. First: who cares? Arguments are common on DL threads, in case you haven't noticed, and there are, after all, 226 comments on this thread alone. Second: to take the time to investigate who posted and how often--you're obsessed with me, R226! Calm down!

But tell me, since you're the ONLY one who uses it: what's the "z" about?

Oy! The choice for some of you people is between a billionaire former Republican, supposedly now a Democrat, former Mayor of New York, or a career politician, whose electoral history has been running as a candidate for of the Liberty Union Party, an independent or a member of the Socialist Worker's Party, supposedly now a Democrat (yet he just filed for his 2024 Senate senate reelection as an independent} Question: Doesn't the DNC require some sort of party membership/litmus test to get up on the podium at the debates? I mean, what's to prevent Trump from claiming to be a Democrat and joining the debate?

Streizand's younger ex lover and equally relevant Superstar - Mister Clint Eastwood is backing Bloomberg too! Stop & Frisk Twins.

^^^Zzzzzzzzzzzzz...^^^

I hope your nurse does her job this weekend R230. Assisted living homes can only provide so much support. God bless you on your journey. I pray that Jesus or some other jew delivers mercy to your troubled mind tonight. Peace gramps.

Oh, no R231, I'm actually 36 years old, living in NYC, and was suddenly put into a comatose state from boredom by your post.

This is disappointing about Babs supporting Bloomie. Cher is supporting Biden too. These old divas and their money shall not part lol.

At least Dick Van Dyke is supporting Bernie.

And John Legend loves Liz.

Barbra Streisand praised his philanthropy. The OP and the article above feature clickbait titles that do not reflect the content of her Tweet. She does not support nor has she endorsed Bloomberg for President.

You're a liar R232. Your posts prove you to be a nasty bigoted ANCIENT white fag. You are at least 75 years old. May God grant you peace. Stay the fuck away from me or you'll be done like Barbara. That's a promise.

[quote] Stay the fuck away from me or you'll be done like Barbara. That's a promise.

Oooh, you told him. I'm sure he is very afraid that you will reach through your computer and strangle him or something.

Right, R236? LMFAO.

"Stay the fuck away," R235? I don't see any shine coming off your shiv, cunt.

So, only the young support really old Bernie?

Oh my God, I am stunned reading all of these attacks on my sister. After all she has done for you. She even let me sing with her at a few of her concerts. I am proud of her.

Roz, I’m not nuts, you’re nuts.

OMG, I didn't even know she had a sister! She looks just like her.

She looks like she had th same plastic surgeon.

R241, turn in your gay card please. R242, we have Not had any kind of work done. We are as natural as can be.

Roz looks like a human woman. She looks nothing like Streizand.

Zzzzzzzzzz....
