Oh, please. Much of Bloomberg's speech was political.
It wasn't the slightest bit political. In fact, it was rather pointedly apolitical.
What you're apparently unhappy with of course was the obvious presence of Donald Trump and his enablers in the speech (whose names were never mentioned of course).
Remember that Bloomberg and McCain were/are Republicans...

Huh? I didn't say anything about *Bloomberg's* political views...
I'm just not particularly interested in the board's views on safe spaces, etc. And if people want to discuss, we happen to have a specific [safe?] space for that.

I'm not unhappy with anything, because I don't have a dog in the hunt.
It was a political speech.
It was also a pretty awful speech in terms of delivery.
