| Days after we learn that Mayor Mike is keeping the ailing NY GOP alive with another $500K check to prop up Bruno's doomed majority, we also learn that Bloomberg thinks Bruno is, "just the most honest, straightforward person you can meet." Oh, and Bruno makes them popcorn when they get together.
Really.
"He's a decent golfer. Scrupulously honest in golf," says Bloomberg. "He's just the most honest, straightforward person you can meet. If Joe tells you he'll do something, you can take it to the bank. When he disagrees with you, he will tell you. If he says he won't talk about it publicly, he doesn't. If it sounds like I like the guy, I do, and I respect him. He's a working-class guy who worked for everything he's ever had." Bloomberg is one of the State Senate Republican's most generous financial supporters; in turn, Bruno has delivered key political cover for many of Bloomberg's projects, such as congestion pricing and gun control. "He's just fun to be with," says Bloomberg. Bruno makes them popcorn when they get together.
Too cute. |
