Jamie,
Bloomberg spoke about the virus during the debates. I can see why he turned you off. That was back in Feb.
Bloomberg also ran away from the way he enforced law and order during his 12 years as mayor of New York City.

He had to "apologize" for what he said in a video in 2015:
In the video, he claimed “95 percent of murders, murderers, and murder victims” were “male minorities 16 to 25” and that one could “take the description, Xerox it, and pass it out to all cops.” He later added, “We put all the cops in minority neighborhoods. Yes, that’s true. Why do we do it? Because that’s where all the crime is. And the way you get guns out of the kids’ hands is to throw them up against the wall and frisk them.”

He was spot-on in that video. It was a continuation of the same law-and-order attitude of his predecessor, Rudy Giuliani. That's why Bloomberg was elected to three terms as mayor.

Now he's trying to run away from that record and look more like Bill de Blasio, who couldn't be more unpopular of a mayor even if he said, "This is MAGA country."

So yeah, Jamie, please tell me which Bloomberg showed up to the Democratic debates.
