Everyone knows that Michael Bloomberg, despite his billions of dollars will go nowhere in the Democrat primary. He isn’t even going to on the ballot for the primaries and caucuses in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada. His little sham run for president will flame out faster than Robert Francis O’Rourke. Yet, the anti-Semite wing of the Democrat party, lead by “The Squad” and Ocasio-Cortez just can’t help themselves. She is accusing Bloomberg of trying to “purchase” our political system. As if he had any real chance.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., seemed to criticize billionaire and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg on Saturday while speaking at a rally for Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. in Iowa.
“There are folks that are trying to completely purchase our political system, running as Republicans and now tossing in their hats as Democrats in the field as well,” she said.
“But what we’re here to say is that in a democracy, it shouldn’t matter how much money you have. What should matter is whether you vote, whether you caucus, whether you turn out. It’s the numbers. It’s the people. it’s the movement.”
Her comments came one day after Bloomberg filed to run in Alabama’s Democratic presidential primary. Although he hasn’t formally launched his campaign, Bloomberg’s wealth would appear to make him a prime target for more progressive politicians like Ocasio-Cortez.
