    Again, you're also still lying. The number she mentioned includes allegations of DISCRIMINATION and lumps in allegations against other people in the organisation with allegations against Bloomberg himself.

    The number is off but she's still right that he has been accused of sexual harassment by multiple women and that he is blamed for fostering a culture where sexism and sexual harassment was common.

    But keep on defending the sexist billionaire. I'm not going to forget that you actually wanted the sexist billionaire to sue someone because they misspoke while calling him out.

    Accuracy is important so I don't blame anyone for wanting her to get the details right but you wanted the sexist billionaire to enrich himself.

    The next debate should resolve a whole lot of questions. There is more on the line and more controversy that might come up. I think we will see who is strong and who isn't.

    Elizabeth Warren has been champing at the bit for a chance to share the stage with a morally dubious billionaire. This is her chance to shine and make a comeback.

    My first choice is Warren but it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen. I’ll get behind Bernie if polls continue to show that he’d beat Trump nationally and in key swing states and if Warren drops out after Super Tuesday. I agree with a lot that he has to say but obviously some of his base is just toxic. But it may be good to aim some of that fanaticism on Trump. Fight crazy supporters with crazy supporters. Biden and Bloomberg aren’t generating excitement, they’re just running on “electability”. I wasn’t excited to vote for Hillary but she wasn’t Trump and that’s all that mattered.

    Recent polls are showing that the “Bernie is not as electable as Biden or Bloomberg” trope is incorrect. He leads Trump by the widest margin among all Democratic candidates.

    A recent Reuters poll has him up 18 point on Trump with independents.

    Where am I lying? You said you wanted Bloomberg to sue her.

    Bloomberg is a sexist billionaire who has been accused of sexual harassment by multiple women.

    Yes, I want him to sue her because maybe then Team Bernie will stop doing dirty stuff like this. Not because I want him to have more money.

    Whatever money he could sue for is pointless. He makes more in a day than she will have in her entire life.

    What it means is that he would be using his wealth to silence someone that called him out about his sexual harassment because she didn't get the details right.

    There were two sides here and you picked the side of the sexually harassing billionaire when talking about his sexual harassment.

    He could just sue for a public retraction, and apology and a donation to a worthy cause.

    Haven't you EVER watched Ally McBeal?

    And I picked the side of the truth over a smear. Was an easy choice.

    Bloomberg is scum, but he is nowhere near Trump level scum. This is more of the Sanders campaign wanting to make people think Bloomberg and Trump are the same.

    He has more money than she ever will, but you want someone that isn't rich to pay for the rich?

    You sound like a republican.

    Asking for her to be sued is going well past just wanting the truth. Wanting him to use his wealth to silence her goes past siding with the truth.

    Your hatred of Bernie has you siding with someone who's as much like Trump a person can be.

    If this keeps up, you might vote for Trump in the general against Bernie.
