Discussion for article #245726

He’s got a ton of money so its inconceivable the GOP’ers paid him to do it. So it must be he wants a President Trump or Cruz . That’s all hell get done by running.

Can’t believe I’m saying this but at least trump is actually running for a party nomination. Talk about ego.

“I find the level of discourse and discussion distressingly banal and an outrage and an insult to the voters,” Bloomberg told the financial publication.

What a guy. Saving us from banality! Who’da thunk it possible?

What a self-important dick. At least Xyxox will have someone to vote for, no matter what.

Bloomberg has been saying “he’s considering running” for about a month. This is hardly news.

Get it though your head Bloomberg, we don’t need or want you to run. The only thing you’ll be seen as is another Ralph Nader who America Hates.

“Michael Bloomberg said for the first time Monday that he is considering launching a White House bid.”

This is exciting news!

He might even outpoll Rick Perry.
Or Scott Walker.
Maybe Bobby Jindal.

Since Bloomberg is rich we have to go through this ego-stroking exercise of his every four years.

Oh yeah…Bloomberg will be a great candidate when money in politics and anti Wall St is the rage. He really needs to get over himself…needless to say, if he does get in the race he will have to divest himself of a lot of his media empire (which is why he wont get in)

I doubt there’s any endpoint sought here except pure, in-the-moment ego gratification. There’s lights, there’s cameras, there’s microphones and he just can’t take it.

This will cut into Saint Bernie’s chance to play the Ralph Nader in this election.

Bloomberg is trying to pimp himself out as credible presidential candidate?

Must be Monday again.

Yeah, because what America really wants is a whiny-voiced midget who flies off to his Bermuda estate every weekend in his private jet. Particularly one who hectors you about your soda.

Oh dear, we seemed to have displeased him.

What can we ever do to make it up to him?

Oh c’mon, can’t we all get along on the subject of Bloomberg hatred? The Nader thing doesn’t even make sense with Sanders running as a Dem.

Silly me. I thought America’s billionaires were already overinvolved in the election.
