'Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg attacked Bernie Sanders on Monday in a new digital video featuring aggressive and derogatory tweets, memes and videos purportedly posted by the Vermont senator's online supporters.

The nearly minute-long video, which will not run on television, closes with a clip of Sanders calling for people "who hold different views" to "engage in a civil discourse." Text then flashes on-screen, asking, "Really?"'

If he's offended by that, I can't wait for him to find out about his own policing policies.

Imagine thinking this is a legitimate issue, to attack a racist transphobic republican for being a racist transphobic republican.

Also obligatory

It's gonna be a super cool thing to see Bloomberg realize he pissed away several hundred million dollars for a failed campaign and absolutely nothing to show for it.

Fuck him and his trying to buy the presidency. Fucker only wants to win so no one goes after his wealth.

The sad part is that's almost pocket change for him.

Bernie must frustrate the hell out of the DNC because they have no ammo on the guy. He's been consistent in his message since the 70's and hes had zero scandals. So now since they can't just play the "Ignore Bernie" card because he is the clear front runner the play is apparently to attack his supporters which is sure a move I guess.

If Bernie supporters can get to him like this how in the world is he gonna take on Trump and his supporters in the general? He's totally unprepared for it.

In the last election, there were a lot of russian psyops masquerading as bernie supporters. Wonder if that's what happening here to some extent.

Does he honestly think that this move is going to make Bernie's supporters turn against Bernie?

If anything, his supporters will think Bloomberg is being a bully like Trump & also trying to buy the presidency (which he's doing).

How is he going to manage in a primary debate? He'll be completely sunk in the first 20 minutes.

Too bad about the whole photoshopping real tweets for the ad and then pixelating the account names so he wouldn't get into any trouble.

Eat shit Bloomberg if you can't handle this random twitter crap maybe you shouldn't try and run the US. There are bad people who claim to support Sanders and he nor I or anyone else want them in the movement but this whole thing has been so overblown for media headlines that are intended to make Sanders look bad. He and the entire campaign has denounced it multiple times and the sanders campaign faces all of the same hatred online as everyone else, they just don't cry about it every chance they get because there are real issues to focus on, some hashtags and emojis ain't shit when people are dying from being unable to afford healthcare, sleeping in streets, dying of starvation, and having their homes destroyed by fire. Every campaign deals with the same shit, grow up and argue with him and his supporters on policy matters, you know, the reason why we're choosing a candidate for president in the first place.

But yo maybe that is the type of energy you need to beat trump. And frankly they couldn't have picked a better target (I'm sure some of the content is cross the line but just cherry picking twitter quotes dont mean shit.)

Bloomberg is the last person I want to see complaining about this shit considering he harassed whole minority populations with Stop & Frisk.

Also, Twitter is toxic and water is wet. Not exclusive to Bernie in the slightest.
