The presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg has insisted he is a “champion for women in the workplace”, after the republication of a 30-year-old booklet purporting to contain his “Wit and Wisdom” cast an uncomfortable spotlight on the billionaire former New York mayor.

The Washington Post made the 1990 booklet available online as it published an investigation of how Bloomberg has “for years battled women’s allegations of profane, sexist comments”. The booklet was presented as a gift to Bloomberg on his 48th birthday party and contains a catalogue of sexist remarks attributed to the billionaire during his time at the company he founded. ...

In one comment printed in the 1990 booklet, the businessman turned politician is said to have said of Britain’s royal family: “What a bunch of misfits – a gay, an architect, that horsey faced lesbian, and a kid who gave up Koo Stark for some fat broad.”

The tone of the comment – seemingly about Prince Edward, Prince Charles, Princess Anne and the scandal-ridden Prince Andrew – is typical of a booklet which a female aide presented when Bloomberg, now 78, was celebrating his 48th birthday.

Of the Bloomberg Terminal, the computer system on which a fortune estimated at $60bn was built, Bloomberg is quoted as saying: “It will do everything, including give you a blowjob. I guess that puts a lot of you girls out of business.”

He is also quoted as comparing “a good salesperson” to “the guy who goes into a bar, and walks up to every gorgeous girl there, and says, ‘Do you want to fuck?’ He gets turned down a lot – but he gets fucked a lot, too!” ...

Bloomberg has been taken to court by a number of female employees. “A number of the cases,” the Post said, “have either been settled, dismissed in Bloomberg’s favour or closed because of a failure of the plaintiff to meet filing deadlines. ...

In the 1990 booklet, Bloomberg is quoted as saying: “Whenever my wife catches me eyeing some broad, she’s very careful to turn to me and say ‘That’s the most expensive piece of ass in the world!’”

“Whenever my wife catches me eyeing some broad, she’s very careful to turn to me and say ‘That’s the most expensive piece of ass in the world!’”

Actually, the most expensive piece of ass is not that lady he is ogling, but that lady he is married to.

Pretty tame stuff. PRobably part of Bloobergs shadow campaign. There are a lot of Red Pillers on 4chan that will like Blloomberg because of that booklet and his quotes.

At this point you have to wonder whether perhaps he will get a lot of women's votes becasue of the quotes too. It certainly didn't hurt Trump nearly as much as you would think. Then again, we are talking the more ethical and scrupled half of the electorate, in the case of Bloomberg and the democrats, so it's hard to know.

Isn't that what she meant? I take it that way.

Bloomberg is the actual racist Democrats pretend that Trump is to create fear in their base.

The way this guy views people of color would make KKK dragons blush.

You might actually be right for a change.
Bloomy is smart. Really smart. He knows how to manipulate the public. He’s been doing it for years with his enormous media empire.

Regardless, he can’t win vs. Trump. He will, however, undoubtedly gain the Democrat nomination.

The Demonrats will backstab and bludgeon each other over Bloomberg vs the squad vs uncle Joe. Popcorn is ready.

Left will eat each other. That’s the thing of going with idiots, sooner or later they turn on you.

I like him better already. If he punches IHLlary in the face on the podium, he has my vote.

I took it as she meant "If you tap that babe, I will take you to the cleaners in a divorce."
