@realDonaldTrump
- we know many of the same people in NY. Behind your back they laugh at you & call you a carnival barking clown. They know you inherited a fortune & squandered it with stupid deals and incompetence.
I have the record & the resources to defeat you. And I will.

I just worry that the more Bloomberg touts his resources, the more fundraising the Rethug fat cats will do.

(37,457 posts)I have no doubt in my mind that Trump is pulling every string and calling in every favor to get cash.
He is probably calling foreign leaders with either no one in the room or maybe one "trusted person"
and promising things in return for large amounts of cash.
He's probably already called Putin, Xi Jinping, Duterte, Erdoğan, the Saudis, etc.

(1,713 posts)cause Trump to have a coronary. Finally, someone fighting Trump on his own turf . Nothing gets under his skin like someone with more wealth and success.

(46,699 posts)remind everyone of the role they played to take Trump down. Biden, because he created a distraction to Trump that resulted in Trump's impeachment. And Bloomberg for raising Trump's blood pressure.

(63,221 posts)And he's unflappable. Trump will not be able to get under his skin or humiliate him because Bloomberg knows that he is nothing but a buffoon and will never take him seriously.
As much as I do not want Bloomberg as our candidate, in some ways I honestly think he might be the only person out there who is really capable of beating Trump and that is priority number one right now.

(45,421 posts)sounds like something the NRA would say. And to that, Bloomberg would say Trump's not a billionaire

(17,174 posts)he runs up against someone who he can't threaten, can't browbeat, can't take his petty revenge on, and who isn't afraid of him. I love it.

(6,931 posts)Bloomberg could easily spend $50-100 MILLION a month on political ads and never touch the principal in his investment accounts. Maybe even more. He doesn't have to raise a dime nor does he have a contribute button.
