BLOOMBERG
In formally announcing his bid for the 2020 Democrat nomination for the Presidency of the United States, billionaire businessman took his opening shot…
“I’m running for president to defeat Donald Trump and rebuild America. We cannot afford four more years of President Trump’s reckless and unethical actions. He represents an existential threat to our country and our values. If he wins another term in office, we may never recover from the damage. The stakes could not be higher. We must win this election. And we must begin rebuilding America. I believe my unique set of experiences in business, government, and philanthropy will enable me to win and lead.”
My take …
HE RAN AS A REPUBLICAN.
HE RAN AS A DEMOCRAT.
HE RAN AS AN INDEPENDENT.
AND NOW HE RUNS AS A JOKE.
THE DNC AND POLITICIANS WILL GLADLY TAKE HIS MONEY, BUT THEY WILL NEVER TAKE HIM SERIOUSLY.
CAN MIKEY PASS THE TRUMP TEST? FOUR YEARS OF CONSTANT HATE AND DISPARAGEMENT BY THE OPPOSITION AND THE MEDIA – AND STILL GET UP IN THE MORNING TO DO THE RIGHT THING FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE?
HE IS ABOUT NEW YORK VALUES, GLOBAL WARMING, GUN CONTROL AND CONFISCATION, BIGGER GOVERNMENT AND SMALLER SODAS.
THE ONLY DEMOCRAT MORE DELUSIONAL ABOUT THE PRESIDENCY THAN MIKE BLOOMBERG IS HILLARY CLINTON
Bottom line…
We can joke all we want about a Bloomberg candidacy, but he does represent a formidable threat to Donald Trump. Especially since the prospect of an ailing Ruth Bader Ginsberg retirement from the Supreme Court is going to drive Democrat turnout to astronomical levels.
It remains to be seen if the GOP can overcome the Mitt Romney establishment wing of the party and the never-Trumpers to pull off a GOP victory. Never put it past the GOP to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory.
We are so screwed.
