2020 ELECTIONS
DNC members discuss rules change to stop Sanders at convention

https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/michael-bloomberg-dnc-debate-203044629.html

“To now change the rules in the middle of the game to accommodate Mike Bloomberg, who is trying to buy his way into the Democratic nomination, is wrong,” Jeff Weaver, a senior adviser on the Bernie Sanders campaign, said in a statement to HuffPost. “That’s the definition of a rigged system where the rich can buy their way in.”

That didn't sit well with several other Democratic candidates and their supporters, including Moore.

Speaking at a Sanders rally in Iowa on Friday night, the Oscar-winning documentarian tore into the DNC's decision.

"They removed it so that [Bloomberg] could be in the next debate," Moore said about the donor requirement. "He doesn't have to show that he has any support amongst the American people. He can just buy his way onto the debate stage!"

He continued, "And I've got to tell you what's so disgusting about this: I watched the debate here in Iowa two weeks ago, the all-white debate. And the fact that the DNC will not allow Cory Booker on that stage, will not allow Julián Castro on that stage, but they’re going to allow Mike Bloomberg because he has a billion f---ing dollars!"

Now I’m not a fan of either Sanders, Bloomberg or any of the other candidates but when it comes to changing the rules and “interference” during elections there seems to be one party that makes it up on the fly, then their beloved cry diversity is no longer an issue.

I think the DNC is corrupt and they are doing their best to manipulate the outcome. At the same time, a few weeks ago Bernie was lamenting the fact that Bloomberg wasn’t on the debate stage having to face the same questioning and scrutiny the rest of them are! Now he gets his wish and he’s still not happy, but that’s typical isn’t it?

I had t heard that. There’s the old saying “be careful of what you wish for”.
