Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said this week that the U.S. needs "an awful lot more immigrants rather than less."
Bloomberg, who formally hopped on the 2020 campaign trail earlier this week, made the comment during a stop at a Mexican restaurant in Phoenix, Ariz., adding immigrants are needed "to take all the different kinds of jobs that the country needs — improve our culture, our cuisine, our religion, our dialogue and certainly improve our economy."
Bloomberg entered the race relatively late and observers have speculated he was nervous about the other candidates' ability to beat Trump. Bloomberg's own campaign manager, Kevin Sheekey, said on Monday that Trump was "winning" the 2020 election.
"It’s very tough for people who don’t live in New York or California to understand that, but that is what’s happening," Sheekey told CNN. "Mike was doing everything he could from the sidelines and he finally decided it wasn’t enough to sit on the sidelines and he needed to do what he could to alter that dynamic."
The billionaire Bloomberg is a perceived moderate who has run for office as a Republican and would be competing in a field of Democrats that have pushed sweeping progressive policies.
He also blasted Trump’s policies that resulted in the separation of families arriving at the border. “Ripping kids away from their parents is a disgrace,” he said.

Well, Bloomie, I disagree. We’d be better off culturally without leftists in our midst, and my religion does not need “improvement”.
What a douche. A filthy rich midget maggot that is also a douche.
According to Bloomberg, immigrants are needed to improve - among other things - our religion. What does that even mean?
Michael Bloomberg said this week that the U.S. needs “an awful lot more immigrants rather than less.”
Well, there is THREE strikes already....He’s OUT!!!!!!!!
improve our culture, our cuisine, our religion, our dialogue and certainly improve our economy.
I’m not good at dem code language.
What does improve our culture mean?
And our dialogue?
And our religion?
As for cuisine, what an ABSURD and ODD statement.
And only an idiot would think that they could add to the economy when the kids they bring with them and/or have here will cost us 100,000 likely by the 5th grade, EACH.
Should have stopped immigration before the Bloomberg’s showed up
Our culture was just fine without them.
Why do they want to come here if it’s so bad?
Our culture was just fine, thank you.
People who cannot read or write their own language, let alone English, do not add to our culture.
“He who does not add subracts.” (from Lessons of the Fathers, and Bloomberg’s pretend culture)
ML/NJ
Every time he and the other Democraps pop up they should be pressed to answer why they hate Americans so much that they want to replace us?
What the hell is wrong with our culture?
Imagine the uproar if someone said Mexico needs more U. S. Citizens to improve their culture.
Do these people even think things out before they regurgitate this nonsense?
Flimsey Grahamnesty and Micro Rubio sound just like him and still want to give 30 million illegal aliens amnesty and make them citizens.
Keep voting for progressives in R jerseys and you will still lose your country.
Yes we need another generation of low paid coolies for the elite class to make a bundle off of.
This dirty, lying America-hater has it backwards. People came here to improve their station via our unique culture.
What a slimy piece of filth you are! Just because you hate yourself doesn’t mean everyone else hates themselves. Move to another country if you want cultural enrichment but don’t force it on the rest of us because you think you know better
What would Bloomengulp know about “our culture?”
He is a dwarf alien from outer space.
The invasion continues and we’ll have a CWII soon enough unless we fold.
It means that Bloomberg is a transnational, cosmopolitan elitist who thinks that nations are anachronistic, patriotism is for chumps, religion should be swept into the dustbin of history, and that anything distinctive as an "American" culture should be eradicated. If pressed, he would probably say the same thing of other nations and cultures, but those are really of no interest to him. It is America as we have known it that he wants to destroy.
At least Ted Turner has a big ranch out west and is interested in the Civil War. His politics may be daft, but he is at root an American patriot. People like Bloomberg think the nation is an embarrassment. But you already knew that.
That's what Bloomers meant by "certainly improve our economy" - improve it for him and his corporate globalist cronies at the expense of middle-class Amricans.
Liberals hate their own culture. Look at the ones saying we need to do away with Thanksgiving. They constantly look for reasons to hate ourselves.
