Michael Douglas hit the campaign trail on behalf of Mike Bloomberg Sunday, after it was revealed the actor's father Kirk Douglas bequeathed his entire $60 million fortune to charity.
The Wall Street actor, 75, appeared in the former New York City mayor's hometown of Quincy, Massachusetts, telling the crowd: 'This is really, truly one of the best candidates we’ve had running for office in 30 to 40 years.'

But Michael Douglas told a crowd in Wisconsin earlier this month that his Hollywood legend father tipped Bloomberg for president just before he died.
'I leaned over close to him, and he said, 'Mike can get it done,'' the younger Douglas, who has lent his voice for Bloomberg commercials, told the crowd, to a throng of cheers.

He does have brothers who probably arent that well off.
Bloomberg set a record at the Vegas debate. He’s the first gambler in history to lose $350 million in one night in Vegas.
Michael and Catherine don’t need his late father’s wealth, as they are far wealthier than he was.
Maybe his dad was referring to Mike Pompeo.
“Best presidential candidate in 40 years.” Does he mean Bloomberg is the best candidate since Jimmy Carter?
I suppose that makes a certain kind of sense. Bloomberg is, after all, a neo-liberal technocrat, just like Jimmy Carter, and is just as inspiring. Unlike Jimmy Carter, he’s also an obnoxious jerk, so he has that going for him.
“Can someone please tell us what the hell we need Mike to get done?”
He needs to make his war on Big Soda national policy.
So there’ll be fewer fat broads.
“Well, Michael’s not destitute.”
$300 million
Maybe Michael Douglas will address Bloomberg’s racist and sexist comments over the years?
Why are the Hollywood stars giving Bloomberg a pass?
Both Kirk and Micheals were/are leftist idiots. Hollywood Jews supporting a Jewish Socialist. Gosh what a surprise.
Good.
Let’s see what Charities.
Stooping to a new low to use his dear and recently departed father for political purposes. Sad.
Kirk Douglas didn’t say that, it sounds too contrived and convenient
I think Michael is worth 300 million - he doesn’t need daddy’s money. I’m sure he knew he wasn’t going to receive anything.
It was probably a leftist charity or two.
The best Presidential candidate in 40 years is running for re-election.
Mini-Mike’s a loser - and so are you!
Being married to a chain smoker is not my idea of bliss, no matter how hot she is/was.
Well Michael Elizabeth Warren isn’t going to be just ignored!
