Scaramucci: Trump sees Bloomberg as threat
The Hill ^ | 11/9/19 | JESSICA CAMPISI

Posted on 11/09/2019 6:51:29 AM PST by conservative98

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci said late Friday that there is "no question" that Michael Bloomberg would be "the No. 1 threat" to President Trump should the former New York City mayor enter the 2020 Democratic presidential primary.

"I think the president would be very intimidated by a guy like Michael Bloomberg," Scaramucci told CNN's Chris Cuomo. "He's a New Yorker, he could stand the onslaught of the president's bullying, he's worth probably five to eight times the president's net worth, he could spend a fortune defending himself and getting ads up in all areas of the country."

"And if Mike Bloomberg got the nomination, it's very clear to me that he would beat Trump,"

Mooch and Bloomberg together don’t make one Trump anyway you look at it.

Scaramucci must be a word in Italian for something you scrape off your shoe.

At the very least it sounds like some Italian mobster. When I first heard of him all I could think of was Sparafucile, the hired assassin from Rigoletto. A real slime bucket.

Bloomberg has the charisma of a cardboard box. Add to that his nutty ideas and he is a threat to only those that vote for him.

I think Scaramucci must be on drugs. And if he's not on drugs, he needs to be.

Trump was egging "Little Mike" Bloomberg on to run in his best World Wrestling Entertainment persona. It was hilarious!

This is a no-lose proposition. If Bloomberg wins the nomination, the "Battle of the Billionaires" will tear the Democrat party apart. The Communist/antisemetic wing of the Democrat party will become isolated. They won't vote for Bloomberg in the general. They'll vote for the Green, Communist or any of the the 57 other left-wing candidates. If Bloomberg doesn't get the nomination, all his money dumped into the Democrat primary campaign will fatally wound the eventual Democrat nominee and the process will also tear the Democrat party apart.

I promise to vote for you if you do, Bloomingturd.

Scaramucci has gone from Trump advisor to media whore. So every day he must think up something new that will gain him a little attention. It doesn’t matter if it is true or not.

LOL! If he thinks Bloomie can beat Trump, why didn’t Democrats recruit him in the first place? Geez, this is the level of intelligence from Mooch.

A guy who worked for Trump all of eleven days...

Bloomberg won’t get the nomination. He may help to give the party a more centrist image. The debates could be interesting: Will he aggressively attack Liz and Bernie, or will he just try to appear as a more moderate voice? I suspect he won’t go so far as to make reconciliation and unity impossible.

Anyone on here old enough to remember Sen. Barry M. Goldwater? He was a conservative and Jewish and in 1964 ran against the Democrats for President. Even HE couldn't get enough votes:

Goldwater was the first candidate of ethnically Jewish heritage to be nominated for President by a major American party (his father was Jewish).[4][5] Goldwater's platform ultimately failed to gain the support of the electorate[6] and he lost the 1964 presidential election to incumbent Democrat Lyndon B. Johnson. Goldwater returned to the Senate in 1969 and specialized in defense and foreign policy. As an elder statesman of the party, Goldwater successfully urged President Richard Nixon to resign in 1974 when evidence of a cover-up in the Watergate scandal became overwhelming and impeachment was imminent.

The “mooch” does not have a clue. Bloomberg is going nowhere. Last night TV host Bill Mahr called it right...putting a NYC “Jew” in the POTUS candidate pool is a loser. Bloomberg will not do well in an Alabama primary, but he need not be upset, because none of these Democrat POTUS candidate losers will do well in Alabama.

And...being half a Jew, myself (a conservative one at that) Pelosi’s choice of California & New York Jews, Adam Schiff & Jerrold Nadler as her point men in the “Trump Impeachment farce...was a severe bad move from the opening salvo. In a country where Whites, African-Americans, Hispanics, Latinos, etc. outnumber East & West Coast Jews by the millions...Pelosi must have been smoking reefer...when she crowned these two buffoons, Schiff & Nadler as her “Trump” destroyers..a bad...failing move. The Democrat Party dies further politically with every passing day!!! Go, figure...I have...and find Nancy Pelosi is not-too-bright in the brain and common sense department!!!

I’m only hearing from the mass media about how Bloomberg would damage Biden and help Warren in the Dem primary.

I think the biggest risk is that Bloomberg could run as an independent and siphon off more votes from Trump than he would the Democrat, and give us Democrats in power for the rest of my lifetime. That is a very scary thought.

I can’t discount it just because I don’t like Scare-a-moochie.

The dems are approaching full panic as their clowns for POTUS are crashing and burning every time they open their vile mouths.

Their faux impeachment of our president is their only chance of winning next year.

That is falling down like their presidential candidates.

I hope you are right. Anything that tears the Dems apart is fine with me!

Not mentioned yet on this thread he ran (and won) as a Republican in NY. Then he changed to an independent and now he's a Democrat. I don't think their liberal base is going to look too kindly on that.

And when was the last time Scare a mooch had a conversation with President Trump about what scares President Trump? Since the first few weeks of Trump’s presidency, I doubt that they’ve exchanged any words at all.

IIRC, Scar sold his business before he took the White House job. His wife filed for divorce and 10 days after being fired, he was on the streets. All because of his big rotten mouth....which continues to verify his short coming.
