Disappointed with the leading Democratic candidates in the 2020 pack, Mike Bloomberg is once again considering a run for president, sources tell The Post.
He thinks Biden is weak and [Bernie] Sanders and Warren cant win, said a source familiar with Bloombergs apparent about-face, which comes just months after the three-term New York City mayor took his name out of consideration.
Mike will be making a decision quickly, said another source close to the media mogul as other sources said the decision to jump into the crowded Democratic field could come within the next few days.
Bloomberg believes the dynamics of the race have changed on the Democratic Party side, with moderate frontrunner Joe Biden stumbling and anti-corporate candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) gaining steam.
Trump will get re-elected if Elizabeth Warren is the nominee. Thats not something any Democrat would want, a Bloomberg insider said. [Therefore] Mike was encouraged to take another look and reassess the race.

And who doesn't enjoy a ratfight?
Bloomberg has an organization. "Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG) was formed in April 2006 during a summit co-hosted by mayors Michael Bloomberg of New York City and Thomas Menino of Boston at New York's mayoral residence, Gracie Mansion. ... In April 2014, MAIG merged with Moms Demand Action to form Everytown for Gun Safety."A few phone calls and he'll be up and running in every state.
I don't think the Democrat core -- after what the Democrat core has morphed into in 2019 -- would ever allow nomination of a Billionaire to run against another Billionaire -- but this could be great fun to watch!
His security is retired NYPD and FBI. He aint Vince Foster and if the Arkansas Mafia thinks he is they will regret it. I really don’t like Bloomie, but I respect his smarts and his knowing how to use his money. He singlehandedly did an end run around the NYC Charter to get his third term and had the Dem Progs begging him to do so. He fought and beat the UFT, continued Giuliani’s broken windows, and neutralized almost every major interest group in the city. I will tell you the one guy not underestimating Bloomie is Pres. Trump.
So, is Bloomberg responsible for all the fake news his outfit has produced? Has his paper been part of the coup to take down President Trump?
“He looks like a decent mayor NOW anybody would after Blasio!!!!”
Exactly compared to Blasio.
Hmmm. A Older White Man, Billionaire and JEWISH. What a conundrum for the Squad.
Bloomberg won in 01 following in Rudy’s footsteps, All 3 times he ran against very weak opponents. In todays New York he wouldn’t stand a chance. Hes a boring mealy mouthed fascist.
Hey, Google says Bloomberg is 5 foot 8. Dwarf?
Or is it just a great way to sell papers.
It’s a mistake to sell Bloomberg short (pun intended).
He is a quantum improvement over Biden, Warren and Sanders, because that bar is so low. If he runs he will be formidable. In the primaries he will run almost as if he were an independent, going rogue interestingly in ways similar to Trump during the 2016 primaries. He will put great distance between his positions and impeachment, Russiagate, etc. If he enters the race I give him a 70% chance of being the Democratic nominee, largely because by default he is the only credible choice.
Moving to the general election, the ultra-far left (25% of Dems) would be Never Bloombergers in the same way as Never Trumpers were in 2016. Half might vote for him because they hate Trump so much, but many will stay home. Bloomberg will appeal to independents and RINOs, of which there are many he can peel away from Trump.
Trump will change demeanor and tactics if Bloomberg is the Dem nominee. He’ll run an entirely different campaign, and so it is impossible to predict the outcome. But it makes no sense to bet against this President. I would give Bloomberg a 40% chance to win but no better.
Unless some big sh*t hits the fan next summer or fall, I don’t give Biden, Warren or Sanders even a one in three chance of winning the general election. They are impressively weak.
I root for more. water good all we need is hillary jfingk and mooch. i just hope after circular firing squad done none are living

Yeah, throw the hat in the ring, Mayor Big Gulp. There’s a real groundswell of support for you in the great, unwashed hinterland.

Has anyone else noticed that this gun-grabbing POS wants to register in Alabama - one of the most gun-friendly states in the Union? It’s a pre-emptive thumb in the eye to Heartland America, and don’t you forget it. He’s deliberately flipping the New York State Bird to flyover country.
In 2016, Michael Bloomturd funded a ballot initiative here in Maine which if passed, would have outlawed the private sale of firearms here in Maine.
The so-called “Moms Demand Action” b*tches fanned across Maine collecting signatures, and the gun-grabbing Michael Bloomturd funded ballot initiative qualified for the November 2016 ballot.
A “Yes on 3” was a vote for Bloomturd and the gun grabbers, a “No on 3” was a vote to continued the private sale of firearms in Maine.
Bloomturd and his fellow moonbat travelers greatly overspent the patriots who wanted to keep Maine’s tradition of the private sale of firearms. Maine is strong Second Amendment country, with both open carry and Constitutional carry.
The useless police chiefs in Maine did commercials on TV, in uniform, supporting Bloomturd’s initiative.
The elected county sheriffs (also in uniform) in Maine ran TV ads opposing the end to the private sale of firearms in Maine.
Election night November 2016....Donald Trump elected; he carried Maine’s Second Congressional District...80% of the state....by 10 points, and was awarded one electoral vote.
Bloomturd’s gun-grabbing initiative went down to defeat. It was a great night!
He has an Epstein problem.
Yeah the Dems need more old white guys in the race!
ROTF! Go ahead. Run Bloomberg. It will be most entertaining watching you fall on your face.
