Bloomberg caught badmouthing farmers
By Monica Showalter

Standing there after having presumably eaten food, Michael Bloomberg would have you think that America's farmers are dumb.

Bloomberg on why farmers can’t work in information technology

MB: “I can teach anyone how to be a farmer 1 dig a hole 2 put a seed in 3 put dirt on top 4 add water 5 up comes the corn”

The skill 4information technology is completely different you need more grey matter#farmers

Farmers can now stand in line behind black people, (branded criminals), poor people, (ordered taxed to keep them from spending their money on booze and cigarettes), women (maybe if they'd go to a library instead of Bloomingdale's) and babies in the womb (kill it), to collect their Bloomberg insult. Does this guy have any respect for anyone? His money seems to have activated his inner jerkwad - which isn't going to cut it for winning the presidency.

This insult was from 2016, and lot of this stuff keeps rolling out from his past.

This one was particularly obnoxious because farmers have always been targets of the left. Remember all the leftist abuse hurled at Rep. Devin Nunes for being "a dairy farmer"? Remember how the Obama administration used to spy on farmers and hand their data over to leftwing activists?

Somebody needs to put him in this cab and ask him to demonstrate his skills.

Bloomberg just spoke plainly what most Progs think but are wise enough not to say aloud except among like-minded Progs.

With 40 states generating over a billion dollars each in agricultural revenues, Mini Mike just shat in his mess kit.

In this State, Oil and Gas and Agriculture are the top two industries.

He is a bubble person.

Knows nothing outside the bubble he created around himself.

Like Obama, except he is less likable.

And, like Hillary,  that unlikability will show up eventually if he is the nominee.

Now I see why he didn't start his campaign in Iowa.

Actually, his absolute lack of knowledge about such a vital industry simply shows he is unfit for the office of President. While what the farmers get for their crops may be a pittance compared to retail prices, they supply that food chain that feeds not just Americans, but others worldwide. Over a trillion dollars of GDP relies on farmers to make it happen.

Controlling our food supplies is the highest order of national security.

Really quite stunning.  My relatives across Wisconsin, Minnesota and North Dakota are rightfully angry-as-hell over this inane comment.

It is revealing that both he and Trump had similar type backgrounds being successful in New York.

Only one was intelligent enough to realize there is more to the world than the bubble of NYC.

Heck, much of his own home state of New York relies heavily on agriculture. But those are the areas that aren't as densely populated, so to them, it doesn't matter.

Some 33,000 family farms, 6.9 million acres....$5.2 Billion in sales.

What that fool doesn't realize is that you can't have dense populations and large scale agriculture (you need the land to grow stuff).

Actually, he is saying out loud what politicians of both parties think about us "little people" in general. Anyone who really believes a politician can relate to them or know or understand who they are or what they do is a fool.  In their minds we are all dumb peasants.
