Presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg is considering Hillary Clinton as a vice presidential running mate after positive internal polling about the potential pairing, according to the Drudge Report, which cited sources close to the Bloomberg campaign.
According to Drudge, in such a partnership Bloomberg would change his official residence from New York to Colorado or Florida. The constitution suggests there may be limitations in both members of a presidential ballot residing in the same state.
Jason Schechter, director of communications for the Bloomberg campaign, said in a statement to CNBC: “We are focused on the primary and the debate, not VP speculation.” A spokesperson for Clinton did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Former First Lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ran for president in 2016, losing to Donald Trump in an election that served him 304 electoral votes and Clinton 227. Helping Trump’s victory were his wins in key industrial and Rust Belt states -- Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan. Those states are likely to be key in the 2020 election as well.
Clinton was asked earlier this year by talk show host Ellen DeGeneres if she would consider running as vice president in the 2020 presidential election.
“Well, that’s not going to happen,” Clinton said at the time. “But no, probably no.”
Clinton has been less coy when addressing the current field of Democratic candidates. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hillary Clinton slammed Sen. Bernie Sanders, her main competitor in the 2016 Democratic primary, saying “nobody likes him” and accusing him of supporting sexist attacks against his rivals.
Bloomberg has recently has been asked to answer for accusations the company he founded, Bloomberg LP, was discriminatory toward women.
Bloomberg, a late contender in the presidential race, has been pouring money into ads and online memes to support his run. Those efforts appear to have born fruit, with him rising in the polls.
LOL!........................
If he does take her on as VP, I will be taking bets on when he either resigns for ‘health reasons’ or for ‘other’ ends to his presidency.........Starting on January 21, 2021.........
What could possibly go wrong.
So which one is moving out of New York?
If it came to that, Clinton would..........................
“The constitution suggests there may be limitations in both members of a presidential ballot residing in the same state.”
OH! It’s just a suggestion! Like the rest of the Constitution is only a suggestion?
:/
Hillary can carry Bloomberg around in her purse like a bottle of hot-sauce.
Minimike better hire 20 food tasters. If they croak, he’ll know the clintons are trying to kill him.
I hope his insurance is paid up.
I wouldn’t fly on any aircraft if I were him...................
He’d stay around through the first 12 months, I suspect. Might even serve well to stay until after the mid-term election of 2022, before surprising the public with his ‘heath’ issues.
Personally, I think a quarter of the Democratic likely voters would suggest this team of Bloomberg/Clinton would be ‘too-fake’ for them to vote for the duo.
The other side of this...say if it occurs and Bloomberg/Clinton won, wouldn’t this just open the door for Trump in 2024 to run again? Against Hillary? And if he won...come back again in 2028?
a less sensational headline would say Bloomberg is contemplating suicide
Hitlery wouldn’t sit in the Number 2 seat when she’d be a heartbeat away from #1
Yes 2024
No 2028
If Bloomberg won and resigned after Jan 20 2023, Hillary could run again in 2024 and, even if successful, run again in 2028.
With both of their egos it would end up in a double murder knife fight.
Never Say Never.... Sounds like a Bond movie, doesn’t it?
Could Clintonize it by changing it to “Never Say Never Die.”
Wasn’t Hillary thinking of running for Mayor of NYC at one point? She and Bloomberg are like identical twins.
What if he commits suicide where just after having slit his throat he is found having stuck a knife in his back after having shot himself while putting a rope around his neck before having dropped the poisoned glass which made him fall down a flight of stairs at Marcy Park? Huh?
Wouldn’t that be a co-inky-dink!
No, he has a checkbook. For the right price, Hillary would sell her dignity. Bet on it.
I Wouldn’t want to be the food taster in that White House.
