The Trump campaign is attacking former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg for his past common sense on crime. On Monday night, a video went viral of Bloomberg saying blacks are the most likely to commit violent crime in New York.
President Trump called Bloomberg “A TOTAL RACIST” in a since-deleted tweet. [Mike Bloomberg Stands Tall Against Trump’s Deleted Tweet, by Charlie Nash, Mediaite, February 11, 2020] However, the rest of Trump world kept up their tweets attacking Bloomberg for his sensible comments.
The Trump campaign also posted another clip of Bloomberg defending stop-and-frisk’s disproportionate effect on non-whites.
