Bloomberg Is A Bernie Plant

It makes so much sense when you think about it.

Bernie's schtick is that billionaires are rigging the system against the 99%. Between the DNC rigging the debate criteria to allow Bloomberg in, his gargantuan TV ad spending spree and now this, it's like the guy is one prolonged ad for Bernie.

The Bloomberg campaign has quietly begun a campaign on Tribe, a “branded content marketplace” that connects social-media influencers with the brands that want to advertise to their followers, to pitch influencers on creating content highlighting why they love the former New York City mayor—for a price.

For a fixed $150 fee, the Bloomberg campaign is pitching micro-influencers—someone who has from 1,000 to 100,000 followers, in industry parlance—to create original content “that tells us why Mike Bloomberg is the electable candidate who can rise above the fray, work across the aisle so ALL Americans feel heard & respected.”

Hiring grassroots fanboys, fangirls and fantheys? It's so tone-deaf that it's tone-perfect. Yes, I know it's done all the time and that there is an established market for it, but for heaven's sake, when it's done by the white billionaire against the spastic socialist, it's like it came straight out of a melodrama.
