Yes he has an excellent shot.



You do know he has to run on his actual positions, right?

and maybe appear somewhere where he can be challenged?

Guess who said that.


Who? That’s probably something a New Yorker would say. Was it Bloomberg or Trump?

No. Rispone was hoping to win over an incumbent who has proven to have no clue running the only state in the union NOT thriving.

Bloomie has to dream up reasons why he will maintain a vibrant economy & make it better. Very tough sell.

Rispone’s path was easier. Unfortunately La elected status quo.

Ok, I get your point now. You feel Americans will tolerate this type of talk from Trump, but not from anyone else.

This is how Bloomberg is approaching the 18-29 year olds. Do YOU think he has a chance?

This is legit, not a joke.

Yes
He is the only one who can beat Trump

They are terrified of him. Why do you think Trump is tweeting a lot about him?

quote:

“I’m afraid of Bloomberg and Bloomberg only. He is the only one that is not a socialist, has experience, and is double-barrel loaded,” said a Republican operative based in the Heartland.

quote:

“Right now, Bloomberg is the biggest threat to President Trump in the fall,” said Jason Miller, a former Trump adviser who, along with Steve Bannon, co-hosts War Room 2020, a podcast and syndicated radio program supportive of the president.
quote:

Bloomberg’s cash spigot, available immediately, would nullify the financial and organizational advantage Trump enjoys over other Democrats. Bloomberg can afford to expand the map by contesting marginal states. Meanwhile, his campaign's vast organization makes up for the huge disparity in capability between the flush Republican National Committee and the underfunded Democratic National Committee.

The people all in for Bernie, the progressive wing, do they vote for Bloomberg? Seems to me they won't be too pleased with Bloom buying a victory with the evil corporate money that they so despise.

Bloomberg will be the nominee via contested convention.
I think he’s got 50-50 chance of becoming president if he is the nominee

Of course he has a shot but I don't think anyone can beat Trump at this point unless something really weird happens like the economy collapses or we get in a nuclear war.... Other than that this thing is over.

Yes.

Mayor of nyc two terms
So mgmt experience you usually only see in governors.
Plenty of political experience.
Some blemishes politically but the main one (stop and frisk) is kind of attractive to white male racists.

Unlike trump he actually has been a successful businessman.

Has a shot.. Convention will be brokered.

Steyer is running 2nd in south Carolina and steyer has no political experience just money.
He just picked out south carolina to pour ads into.

The Socialist have the Millennial's so brainwashed with hating Billionaires that should Bloomberg somehow get the nomination this block of votes with sit out the election in large numbers. He also has a serious racial problem that isn't going to run away. He's not a good public speaker and will falter there.


Then there is Trump. He is about to implode while waiting for his opponent. No one trolls better than Trump and the GOP is pissed off and can't wait to vote.

It’s a sneaky brilliant candidacy because it’s a win-win-win for him:

1. If he attracts liberal voters, he has reason to be in the Dem ticket

2. If he attracts moderate or conservative voters, that hurts Trump’s chances.

3. Somehow he’ll make more money.
