Excerpts from article:
...Former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg has been spending a lot of money on presidential campaign ads targeting President Donald Trump, but pivoted Monday to take on primary challenger Sen. Bernie Sanders, calling out the online actions of some of the progressive's supporters.
...Another says, "Libs who are flirting with Bloomberg now should be aware that they are going on lists. Next time they pretend to care about racism or sexual harassment or really anything other than money and power, we will remember what they were doing right now and we will remind everyone."
...The ad references The Daily Dot's "Are You Being Harassed by a Bernie Bro or a Bernie Bot?" and Bret Stephens' New York Times column, "Bernie's Angry Bros," tapping into the stereotype of Sanders' most ardent supporters leftover from 2016.
...Sanders' progressive supporters are not the only people to take issue with Bloomberg for those reasons.
...President Trump himself called Bloomberg a racist on Twitter for the stop and frisk defense.
