Bloomberg implied farming doesn't take intelligence

We all agree your pops is a Rhodes Scholar, but to Bloomberg, not so much But I'm glad you find him a fine man..

 

No, he is not. He's sowing discord and causing chaos among Democrats.

Bloomberg is a closet Trump supporter.

 

Maybe the correct comparison when speaking about Bloomberg would be Farmer instead of Biden ¯\_(º¸º)_/¯

 

I'm not sure what to make of the condescension Bloomy displayed with those comments. It's almost bordering on arrogance. No Bloomy, some city slicker like you can NOT teach anyone how to be a farmer anymore than you can teach someone how to work a line in an auto plant.

Perhaps someone should steer Mike and the soapbox he's standing on towards Undercover Boss. I'd pay real money to see Shorty B spend a week on an actual farm.

 

Bloomberg is just another annoying billionaire who thinks he knows what's best for the rest of us. He wouldn't last an hour foing farm work, or anything else that requires labor as well as thinking.

He's a former Republican turned independent, trying to buy the Democratic party's nomination. He has the hubris to actually believe, like Trump did, that "he alone can fix it."

And for all the Bernie bros out there: he, too, is not a member of the Democratic party, so why should they nominate him? I like Bernie for the most part, and will vote for him in November if he does get the nomination, but I'm sick of the whining about how the Dems mistreat or cheat him. Join the damn party, Bernie.

No on Bloomberg, no on Steyer. I want a president who knows what it's like to sweat the rent.

 

Hopefully they won't. If the Dems want a candidate with a really strong track record of working on behalf of agriculture and labor, here she is:

She's not trying to take anyone's healthcare choices away from them, she's not trying to destroy protections for pre-existing conditions as Trump's DOJ is currently trying to do in court, she's smart, and she has a sense of humor. Remember when she annouced her candidacy in a snowstorm, and Trump issued one of his childish tweets about what her hair looked like by the end of her speech? Her reply was to say "I'd like to see how your hair would hold up in a blizzard."

Some think she's boring. I say yeah, good, I want someone who is too busy working on my behalf to hold rallies to self-glorify and entertain her base. Boring is a GOOD thing, IMO. More than anything else, I want a slow news day.

 

This kinda **** is fun to watch. Yay Doomberg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

If Bloomberg had to do any farming to feed himself he would starve. He's a city dweller who thinks NYC is the center of the universe. He's an educated very lucky fool who should have been slapped with anti-trust violations in the 80's when his Bloomberg terminals were clearly a monopoly. The guy is so very out of touch with most of Americans no amount of his money can buy a fair election.

 

That's not all that farming consists of. I'd love to see Bloomberg get up at 4:00 am in 10° weather to go feed a herd of hungry cattle in a field out in the country where you and the herd are prey to wild animals.

I'd love to see Bloomberg get up at 4:00 am and sit on a tractor for 10 hours in 105° heat to cut acres and acres of alfalfa and then bail it later in the same conditions.

I'd love to see Bloomberg deliver a calf or take care of a cow that's been shot in the head by a redneck who didn't have the right equipment to haul the cow off and left it there to rot. Then I'd love to see him show up with the right tools to repair the fence that was torn down in the process.

I'd love to see Bloomberg spend hours and hours out in the field fixing miles of fence and setting new posts after a tornado blew through or a car ran off the road and took out hundreds of feet of fence.

I'd love to see Bloomberg round up cattle that got out of the fence that was torn down and are aimlessly wandering around in front yards around the neighborhood.

I'd love to see Bloomberg not just put out the hard work it takes to be a farmer, but also possess the intelligence it takes to know when and where to plant crops, how to raise the cattle and take care of it, and how to keep the farm going so you don't go under.

It's one thing to say "being a farmer is easy," it's another to actually get out there and be a successful farmer.

 

Don't forget to add the millions of dollars he spent on his gun grabbing efforts.

 

In his defense, it's easier to kill someone's parents and grandparents when they are unarmed.

 

I bet I could drop Nanny State Mike in the middle of the most fertile farmland in America and he'd starve to death.

What an ignoramus...

 

And interfering in elections.

 

At least he is not claiming to have respect for those who work for their money. Farmers are also mechanics that have to maintain extremely complex machinery.

 

And you think some city slicker from Boston can teach someone how to farm?

"You dig a hole, you put a seed in, you put dirt on top, add water, up comes the corn."

Yeah, that's all there is to the farming...

 

Better commies than him thought the same. Does nobody remember the Soviet famines?

 

Oh oh. Mike is toast (for sure).

He is most likely drafting the withdrawal speech.

Mikey, we hardly knew ye.

 

I'd like to see him get kicked in the nuts by a cow or horse. Id' like to see him get his butt sucked into a combine or bailer. Either can easily happen if you don't know what you are doing and he clearly does not. I'd like to see him just spread fertilizer correctly.

 

What does a jet engine have to do with farming? You seem a tad confused.

 

A garden food plot isn't a farm by a long shot. He has no idea of what's required to successfully run even a small farm.

 

Read the article. He attacked factory workers too. He said anyone could turn out parts on a metal lathe. Not so. He's about 30 years or more behind the curve. Old farts should ALL keep their mouths shut.

 

With training anyone with a brain could learn it. I would say the same thing about many industries.

 

Not intelligent? I'll take a guy/girl that knows how to to farm and milk cows and butcher animals and knows irrigation and all that stuff in the apocalypse over a billionaire ANY day

 

He says what he did, computer programming and hedge fund management is difficult. Arrogant clowns that ride to work in a chopper all seem to think what they do is difficult but what anyone else does is easy. A very foolish assumption from a very pompous ass and anyone who thinks the way he does.

 

And Mao's famine in China, and Pol Pot's famine in Cambodia, and Mengistu's famine in Ethiopia and most recently the dumpster-diving in Maduro's Venezuela...
