Bloomberg: "Behind your back they laugh at you & call you a carnival barking clown...."

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by NancyBlueINOklahoma (a host of the General Discussion forum).

@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.




ZINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!! Ouch, that one had to kick him in the groin! Say what you will about Bloomberg, he knows how to hurt Trump's fragile ego.

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

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.

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.

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.

sounds like something the NRA would say. And to that, Bloomberg would say Trump's not a billionaire

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.

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.
