Bernie Sanders thinks billionaire Michael Bloomberg is trying to buy an election
“I really don’t.”He just thinks he’s trying to “buy an election,” is demonstrating “the arrogance of billionaires” and, as Bloomberg opens his near-bottomless wallet to pay for TV ads, is complicit in “undermining” American democracy.One day after Bloomberg announced his late entry into the Democratic presidential field, Sanders and his progressive allies aren’t holding back.
Earlier in the day, it was Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s turn, when she told a crowd in Iowa that Bloomberg was “making a bet about democracy in 2020: He doesn’t need people, he only needs bags and bags of money.”Bloomberg, the former New York mayor, announced his campaign on Sunday, positioning himself as a moderate alternative to former Vice President Joe Biden.
After Warren lit into him Monday, Bloomberg told reporters, “For years I’ve been using my resources for the things that matter to me.”
