They are states that Donald Trump narrowly beat Hillary Clinton in back in 2016.

SACRAMENTO, California — Former presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg appears to be keeping his word: Even though he won't be the Democratic nominee, he's not finished trying to defeat President Donald Trump.

The billionaire and former New York City mayor is funding an anti-Trump operation in six battleground states in an effort to oust the Republican president in November.

Bloomberg will tap his vast fortune to pay for field offices in Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

In the 2016 election, Trump won those states over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton by a combined 489,317 votes out of more than 28.6 million cast -- about 1.7%. Had Clinton won those, she would have won the Electoral College vote and the presidency, 333 to 205. But Trump won 306 to 232.

Mike Bloomberg continues to vent his venom on the world at large. In a way, he is much like George Soros, meddling for the sake of meddling, and always with the idea of crowding out human initiative and clear principles of moral and just governance, to keep a docile populace in essential bondage, all for a “mess of pottage”.

“Command and control” seems at first to be a most efficient means to run a country, but it eventually ends up with a paramilitary force in command and control totally relinquished by the people most concerned, the serfs and peasants who either do not know any better, or were so lacking in self-worth that they simply surrendered.

mini and soros HATE that Trump is loved by millions an millions.

They are narcissists and can’t understand why the people don’t love them just as much.

They KNOW that we peasants are just totally misguided in voting for a President that has real American values.

We are supposed to fall in line and not question their greatness.

mini mike has DESTROYED his reputation. The few right of center things he did he has apologized for.

But that didn’t appease the left

So now everyone hates him

And he CANT STAND that people love Trump.

It’s hard for a narcissist to accept.

Has he even ever said what things Trump is doing that he disagrees with?

Mike Bloomberg’s jealous of the way George Soros uses his money to steal the value of the little people’s votes. Soros and Bloomberg are thugs.

I could be wrong on all of this, but it looks to me like only the big money waders want his money, that the Trump Supporters like you and I, American Patriots, we don't want anything to do with him...

Many reasons we don't want Mini Mike: no economy; no jobs; open borders; send manufacturing back to China; treatment of women would be poor (he is very well known to disrespect women)…

I say: “No Thanks, go use it at the bordellos where you'll get something in return”...

I went to the Bernie speech last night. I had no problem getting a seat even though I was 15 minutes into the speech. The Stadium was about 2/3 full. The President was at the same place a few days ago. Thousands of people had to wait outside because the stadium was packed. Mini Mike has learned nothing.

Here’s the difference. Kraft is a friend of Donald Trump.
