With Democrat frontrunner [[Joe Biden]]'s hope's dashed by corruption revelations in the [[Biden-Ukraine scandal]], Bloomberg was pushed forward by the establishment DNC to counter a total [[socialist]] takeover of the [[Democrat party]] by [[Bernie Sanders]].

Bloomberg was rewarded with a late spot in Democrat debates, although he had no individual donors - a requirement imposed on [[Cory Booker]], [[Julian Castro]], and [[Kamala Harris]] by racist Democrat insiders before they were driven from the debate stage and out of the contest.
