Bloomberg Considers Hillary For Running Mate

Via Zero Hedge

In another classic Drudge Report scoop that is bound to dominate the Democratic Primary news cycle from now until South Carolina and Nevada, the conservative-leaning aggregator reports that Mike Bloomberg is considering Hillary Clinton as a potential running mate.

Drudge added that, as part of the deal, Bloomberg would likely change his residency, since the electoral college math would make it harder for a Presidential and VP candidates from the same state.

Sources close to Bloomberg campaign tell DRUDGE REPORT that candidate is considering Hillary Clinton as running mate, after their polling found the Bloomberg-Clinton combination would be formidable force…

DRUDGE has learned that Bloomberg himself would go as far as to change his official residence from New York to homes he owns in Colorado or Florida, since the electoral college makes it hard for a POTUS and VPOTUS from the same state.

We’ve taken screenshots of the tweets, given Drudge’s longstanding policy of deleting his tweets not long after publishing.

The news comes amid a surge in the polls that has put Bloomberg closer and closer to taking first in Florida, a key part of his strategy.

And sure, Bloomberg wasn’t even on the ballot in Iowa, but who needs the electoral process when you have money and deep-state Clinton power? After all, nobody knows how to rig a primary like Hillary.

And of course, Steve Bannon predicted that something like this would happen.

REGAN: Let me turn to 2020. Let me turn to the Democrats. Bloomberg’s now in on the mix. By the way, just to remind the viewers, this is the guy that broke the news here. Watch.

BANNON: They will throw Biden away. They’ll throw Biden away to get to Trump and hope Elizabeth Warren or I even think Hillary Clinton or Bloomberg or some centrist comes in here. All these other people that could have been the centrist candidate for whatever reason haven’t materialize. And that leaves a huge opportunity for two people, I believe, Michael Bloomberg and Hillary Clinton.

Here’s the clip:

Notably, just as Drudge was breaking the news via Twitter and his website

…Bloomberg tweeted this. It’s not a confirmation, but it certainly sounds like a hint to us [Editor’s Note: It’s actually a response to a WaPo investigation about Bloomberg’s history of treating women brusquely in the workplace. The investigation was published a little more than an hour ago.]

Some might argue it’s a smart move: Bloomberg is going all-in on winning the backing of the Democratic establishment. By winning the Clintons as an ally, he can make inroads with their army of loyalists who still hold tremendous sway over the party apparatus, while appealing to more middle-class women and others who supported the Democrat last time around.

In other words, to the DNC, Hillary is still a ‘safe bet.’

This would explain Drudge Report’s sudden turn. It will be used as the vehicle to acclimate / inoculate the American sheep for an HRC 3rd run at the brass ring. It is also a sign of Deep State desperation that this may be their last chance to disarm the country, flood it with brown people, neutralize whitey at the ballot box, and crown themselves the Philosopher Kings before ushering in the End of History.

Key events to confirm full Deep State participation are – 1) Federal Reserve actions from this point forward, and; 2) foreign conflicts lighting up that just keep trying to pull the USA in big time a la Don Corleone.

So far NotQE has been keeping fake stock market not only afloat, but booming which implies Deep State not fully against Orange Man – or, they are just waiting for the right timing before election to crash all Boomer 401ks and claim Orange Man Bad 24/7. Pissed off Bernie Bros could spark Chicago 1968 v2.0 before a made for prime time TV audience, foreshadowing in the collective sheep subconscious a harbinger of the chaos about to be unleashed on America, thus cementing Orange Man not so bad and 2nd term. The bat virus not bio-weapon because MSM tells us so provides cover for a slow market implosion, better known as a reversion to the mean, as Orange Man Bad won’t cut it in this case, which begs the question what else is the not bio-weapon bat virus cover for and enacted by whom? So many wheels within wheels, just have to wait for the next Q breadcrumb (sarc).

Nice summary. The beer flu is the vehicle that will stall the economy, but not too quickly. Containers from China are usually slow this time of year, just after lunar New Year, however their manufacturing has not ramped back up like normal and the shipments have all but stopped. America’s JIT (Just in Time or Just Isn’t True) system is not equipped for a stoppage of new Chicom goods, so we will soon start to experience shortages. Auto manufacturing will be hit first, as the Chinese parts stop flowing. Next, we will start seeing empty shelves at our favorite retailers. As the consumer sees the empty shelves, they will start panic buying anything that is available.

Next come the layoffs. First in trucking, intermodal and auto manufacturing, along with their suppliers, followed shortly thereafter in warehousing and retail, as they no longer have goods to stock and sell. Slowly, but surely the economy unwinds just in time for the summer conventions. The dissatisfaction with the establishment will be off the charts and I expect there to be a lot of urban unrest, just as we saw in ’68. The situation will be ideal for someone like Bernie who will blame the billionaires, especially Bloomie and Trump.

If the beer flu makes it here and spreads (which I do not expect), it will be mass chaos and all bets are off. All in all, it looks to be a very interesting presidential election year. if it comes from China and you use it regularly, you had better stock up quickly. As always, keep your larder full and your powder dry.

Trucking layoffs started well over a year ago as the oil well count declined and frac sand haulage declined with it. All owner operator truckers are getting the boot and hired as company drivers running company trucks 24/7 (this is happening in industrial gases as we speak – see Linde / Praxair / Messer / Air Liquide job boards). But yes these latest events will set haulage downturn as well as Baltic Dry sinking further.

Hillary gave Obama her jet which promptly displayed mechanical problems. O’Bumblefuck narrowly avoided a potential aviation accident that could’ve changed everything, but he got lucky.

No way. Hillary is a LOSER and the billionaire owners of this country have had it with LOSERS (Hillary, Biden, Warren). That is the whole reason that Bloomberg is running. He will not fuck this up. Hillary brings nothing but trouble. Anybody that likes her would already be voting for Bloomberg. He needs a POC (I can’t believe they want to be called POC’s – Ha Ha!). The VP will be Cory Booker, Kamala, Val Demings, Stacy Abrams, Julian Castro, Hakeem Jeffries. I think maybe Val Demings.
