Allegations of sexual harassment and discrimination have loomed over Michael Bloomberg’s presidential campaign since he entered the race late last year. And it seems he just admitted that he does, in fact, have a problem.

Bloomberg was grilled during Wednesday’s Democratic debate on the dozens of nondisclosure agreements he has with former female employees. When asked why these women weren’t allowed to speak publicly, Bloomberg said: “We have very few NDA’s … probably because some women didn’t like some jokes I told.”
