Houston We Have a Problem

February 20, 2020 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Michael Bloomberg, the mayor of New York City, N.Y., speaks to the media aboard the amphibious transport dock ship PCU New York (LPD 21) while under way in the Atlantic Ocean Nov. 1, 2009. The ship is hosting more than 80 visitors overnight prior to pulling into New York City for its commissioning ceremony, which is scheduled for Nov. 7, 2009.

The big winner in last night’s debate was President Trump, as Democrats clearly don’t have a dog in this fight. At the New York Post, John Podhoretz even calls the debate “the greatest debate in all of human history.” He goes on to give examples of the fireworks at the Nevada showdown. Podhoretz writes (abridged):

Forget Lincoln and Douglas. Forget Nixon and Kennedy. Hell, forget the Athenians and the Melians back during the Peloponnesian War. Last night’s Democratic primary slagfest in Nevada was the greatest debate in all of human history.

Oh, was it glorious — the sheer raging hostility spraying across the stage as every campaign besides the Bernie Sanders and Michael Bloomberg bids faces the desperate possibility that each might fade into the woodwork against the Bernie surge and the Bloomberg billions.

It’s not that the gloves were off. No, my friends, everybody was wearing steel-tipped boots and going right for the crotch. Those weren’t snowflakes. They were nunchucks.

Some priceless highlights:

Pete Buttigieg wagging his finger at Amy Klobuchar after she said she’d made an error by forgetting the name of the president of Mexico in an interview.

Klobuchar wheeling on Buttigieg and demanding to know if he was trying to say she was dumb. “Are you mocking me here, Pete?”

Joe Biden saying he’s the only one on stage who has met all kinds of Mexican presidents — whose names he clearly couldn’t remember.

Bloomberg saying he was too rich to release his returns because he can’t do Turbo Tax like all of you losers.

Sanders fuming that Bloomberg would dare mention he has a summer house.

And then there was Elizabeth Warren, desperately trying to get back in the game and spraying fire at everyone else on stage like Machine Gun Kelly. She spared no one, and by the end, she had yelled herself hoarse and seemed like she needed an oxygen tank.

Warren’s signature moment came at the very beginning, when she went right for the jugular.

“I’d like to talk about who we’re running against — a billionaire who calls women fat broads and horse-faced lesbians,” Warren said. “No, I’m not talking about Donald Trump. I’m talking about Mayor Bloomberg.”

So how was Bloomberg? At the midpoint, it seemed like he had just spent the past three months lighting half a billion dollars on fire, given just how disastrously he had performed.

The Democrats on stage last night showed Americans their party has no coherent plan and no realistic policy platform. The big winner was President Trump, and the Democrats, they have a problem.
