Bloomberg on Why Should Black America Trust Him: I Did Something to Reduce Climate Change
EXCERPT:
SHARPTON:" Given all the publicity around stop-and-frisk and other issues, what is the argument you make why Mike Bloomberg should be trusted by black Americans."
BLOOMBERG: "Did something to try to reduce climate. We did cut the murder rate 50%, so we saved thousands of lives. It got out of control, I made a mistake. I fixed the mistake. I’ve apologized for it and asked for forgiveness. And I’m doing other things that will help the community. I can’t go rewrite history, but I can continue the fight that gets guns off the streets, get better education for people, have more economic opportunity. And the biggest thing I can do, I think, is replace Donald Trump and put in a president who has a feeling for people because the president is the leader.”
