Michael Bloomberg’s reputation will not recover from his ill-advised presidential campaign.
Bloomberg sued by aides for stiffing them on yearlong pay promise
By Politico, March 23, 2020:
Story continues below advertisementThe billionaire is facing at least two class-action lawsuits.
Former campaign workers for Mike Bloomberg are suing the billionaire former presidential candidate for fraud, alleging in a nationwide class action lawsuit that as many as 2,000 employees were promised to be paid though the general election before he laid them off.
Plaintiffs in the class action include two organizers who halted the interview process for other jobs to join the Bloomberg campaign, and another former organizer who postponed law school to work on Bloomberg’s 2020 effort.
The filing comes on the same day as another class action brought by a former Bloomberg field organizer that similarly argues the employees were tricked into taking jobs they were told would continue for a year.
Bloomberg on Friday purged all of those workers in six battleground states and guaranteed they would be paid only through the first week of April, with their benefits expiring at the end of that month. The first big round of layoffs across the rest of the country happened earlier this month, with their pay lasting though March 31.
Bloomberg hiring materials described as coming from headquarters promised work with “Team Bloomberg” though November, regardless of whether he became the Democratic nominee, provided that the aides working across the country were willing to relocate. Bloomberg’s team reiterated their plans to follow though — even if only in spirit — after the initial round of layoffs, when top campaign advisers indicated in emails and staff conference calls that they would be given priority on a planned Bloomberg super PAC.

Blomberg doesn’t need them anymore.
In his narcissistic mind, they failed him. He didn’t win and it is THEIR fault. He can’t understand why the charming, well known man he is, eye roll, didn’t win.

It was always about Bloomberg and never about the voters or people who worked for him.

I’m sure Bloomberg is very concerned and working hard from his Swiss Chateau, to see to it that the little people, er, his employees will be paid promptly. He just has to find a way to get the shipment of pennies to all those people.

Attention Bloomberg Aids: When you back evil little people you should have been smart enough to know this would happen if by the strangest events ever the little boy would have made it. This stands to YOUR Ignorance. “It must be your higher education” Daaa, you deserve it.
