Report: Bloomberg hosting fundraiser for Sen. Manchin

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg (D) is hosting a fundraiser for Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) at his Manhattan home, BuzzFed is reporting.

His group, Mayors Against Illegal Guns, has run ads thanking Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) for his work on a bipartisan measure, along with Manchin, to expand background checks.

Tickets for the Manchin fundraiser range from $1,000 to $5,000.

As if there were any doubt why they backed national background checks.

Wonder when his fundraiser for Toomey will be?

I wouldn't pay $1,000 to $5,000 for someone I like.

I may be willing to pay $1k for a good meal, front row, center to see either Manchin or Toomey concede their next election to a real conservative.

Imagine That! Follow the money and it all makes sense.

Ya know, when they have such expensive fundraisers it really baffles me how so many people are foolish enough to stick with the William Jennings Bryan era nonsense that somehow the D party identifies itself with people of modest means in any other way than creating the very poverty they claim to champion.
