Warren Gives Bloomberg A Gut Punch During His Premiere Presidential Debate

Bloomberg has been pouring millions of dollars into his campaign in hopes of gaining name recognition this late in the game. He even gave himself time by skipping some of the primaries, but now it appears it may have all been for naught as Warren destroyed Bloomberg in his first Presidential Debate. Warren raised numerous serious issues that Bloomberg had no answer for, aside from apologizing. It was truly a weak display as Warren made short work of the Billionaire.

Warren “used his nondisclosure agreements, the stop-and-frisk tactic employed by police primarily against minorities when he was mayor, and his vast fortune estimated at more than $60 billion against him too.

Warren continued to hit Bloomberg by using his record as a weapon while she highlighting her own in stark contrast. Bloomberg was unable to respond effectively and his poor performance can’t be fixed by the hundreds of millions of dollars in ads he is buying.”

“Bloomberg’s performance was a disaster. He was not the Bloomberg of his ads in this debate – and that’s now a big problem for him. Spending hundreds of millions of dollars on ads has bought Bloomberg name recognition, good poll numbers and a pole position in the debate – but no amount of money can guarantee a great debate performance.

And that was the case Wednesday night. Voters will see clips of this performance on TV and read about it for days, and it will seriously hurt Bloomberg’s standing in the presidential nomination race.

Warren exposed the real Michael Bloomberg and it was not a pretty picture. It was Warren’s relentless challenge to Bloomberg on a host of issues – including his treatment of women who worked for him and his refusal to release them from nondisclosure agreements – as well as his treatment of people of color with his stop-and-frisk policy.

Watch Warren Destroy Bloomberg

Bloomberg’s attempts to apologize and explain only made the situation worse. His apology came off as more about convenience than sincerity – and that will register with voters too.”

Did Warren effectively just take Bloomberg out of the equation? You know establishment Dems must be pissed as they were counting on him being the new frontrunner.
