Bloomberg should apologize for comments about transgender people, LGBTQ rights group says

“Words matter and Mayor Bloomberg should apologize for using language that demoralizes and dehumanizes members of our community,” he added.

A campaign spokesperson said in a statement that Bloomberg understands that the transgender community has been under attack for decades and said that as mayor of New York, he signed a sweeping transgender civil rights bill into law.

He shouldnt apologize.

Dems: he's Trump. We went through this with Trump. Trump apologized for everything we caught him saying on tape. He's Trump.

Sounds like another Sodom and gomara to me.

MikeBloomberg IS A REPUBLICAN.

Great. Still waiting for you to vet Bernie. Let's start with: How many heart attacks has he had? Why won't he and Trump release their medical records? What are they both hiding? VettingBernie

NBC should do a piece on the Jennifer Pritziger family & their financial support of transgender issues in the US & Canada through their Tawani Foundation.

The right to express opinion is a fundamental human right.

Add that to the list of apologies due to 95 yr olds with cancer, farmers, people who consume soft drinks, pregnant female employees...the list goes on.

He should apologize for running.

Typical NBC headline makes the reader believe an objective Third party is calling for this. Upon reading the article, one immediately sees it is an advocacy group

Hey, Human Rights Campaign. RE: 'Bloomberg should apologize for his statements?' WTF ABOUT DONALD TRUMP'S DECADES-LONG VERBAL VOMIT against EVERYONE?

He's not Biden. Barney bros will have to sucj it up and start screaming rigged

Ridiculous. Kill the moderate with all the crap you can. Likely the far left wing candidates get the Democrats buried. The goal is to beat Trump.

The expressionists of evil, how to draw or paint the portrait of Satan are served now , it's on!!!!!!!!

He can apologize when Trump apologizes for all the crap and lies he has spewed his entire adult life.

Enough with all of this BS

Im not at all for Bloomberg but he doesn’t have to apologize. If you wanna be trans, its a free country but dont expect the majority of us to adopt your beliefs.

Notice how NBC News seems to embrace everything immoral and/or unnatural?

Finally Bloomberg said something that most people agree with.

MikeBloomberg Never apologize, it’s a death sentence.

Whether he apologizes or not we know him better. He's a sworn racist whose apology can't change help. This is sad 😭 BloombergIsARacist is bad

To a leftist, an apology is nothing more than an admission to guilt.

only if don the con apologizes first

First he has to apologize to Farmers , Blacks , pregnant women and blue collar workers . The list just keeps growing

As if him apologising would change who he is or what he stands for. Some people are easily fooled...

One way Mini-Mike make take the nomination is to burn a trail through this identity politic nonsense and stake out the middle.

MayorSqueak apologizing again huh.

Maybe We Shouldn't Nominate a Billionaire Who Describes Transgender People As 'It'Michael Bloomberg’s making a pretty valiant effort to buy the Democratic presidential nomination, but all that money can’t quite quash the many documented misogynistic, racist, and transphobic statements he’s made over the years. For instance: this video from 2019 showing Bloomberg referring to transgender people as “it” and “some guy in a dress.” 2019! Jesus Christ, dude! I like your idea very much. I’ll vote for whoever is the Democratic nominee.... TRUMP MUST GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
