Bloomberg’s entrapped by lefty faux racism: I shouldn’t have called Cory Booker ‘well-spoken’
December 7, 2019 | Frieda Powers

Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg voiced his regret after being criticized for what was seen as a patronizing remark about Sen. Cory Booker.

The 2020 Democratic presidential candidate was called out after his compliment of the New Jersey lawmaker as “well-spoken” was taken as a racially condescending remark.

“I probably shouldn’t have used the word,” Bloomberg said at a campaign event in Georgia, noting that he and his current 2020 rival endorsed each other in their local runs for office, campaigned for each other and have “stayed friends.”

“But I can just tell you he is a friend of mine, and he is a Rhodes Scholar, which is much more impressive than my academic background. I envy him, and he can certainly speak for himself,” the billionaire added.

Just goes to show there is nothing one can say about a Democrat with a chip on his shoulder without getting blowback.
