President Trump went after “Mini Mike” Bloomberg in a series of tweets early Sunday morning and suggested the former New York mayor would need to stand on a box during a Democratic presidential debate.
“Mini Mike is now negotiating both to get on the Democrat Primary debate stage, and to have the right to stand on boxes, or a lift, during the debates,” the president posted on his Twitter account in the last of three postings about 5-foot-8 Michael Bloomberg. “This is sometimes done, but really not fair!”
Trump also takes a shot at Bloomberg’s stature during an interview with Sean Hannity that will air later Sunday on Fox’s Super Bowl pre-game programming.
“I just think of little. Now he wants a box for the debates to stand on. Okay, it’s okay, there’s nothing wrong. You could be short, why should he get a box to stand on, OK? He wants a box for the debates,” Trump said on a snippet of the interview Hannity played on “Fox & Friends.”
“Why should he be entitled to that? Does that mean everyone else gets a box?”
Trump also said he would “love” to run against Bloomberg.

Probably has small hands, too.
5’ 8” is now trending (downwards) as I type...
Wizard vs Hobbit
But I do kind of like "Little Gulp". You can always claim it is just making fun of his mandatory downsizing of soft drinks in NY rather than his height...but the double entendre is nice.
Mini Mike has lied about his height for years.
That’s what makes this an issue.
Stick to the script President Trump. You have momentum behind you. Timing is everything.
Bloomberg is an arrogant ass. Trump’s tweets will get under his thin skin. Bloomberg is running for the Chief Nanny of The United States - CNOTUS.
Check out the second from the last paragraph of the article.
Maybe DeNiro will loan him a pair of lifts.
Picture of the two candidates:
Mike: Don, can you tip the parking valet for me this time?
I’m a little short.
Trump: Nothing new about that.
Trump is taunting him and the Dems, knowing they are on the edge of a full blown apoplectic paroxysmal nervous breakdown.
Im 5”7” and I’m just average for a Northern European man. Have small hands, too.
Like there’s anything wrong with being short and no - I’ve never worn lifts!
I foresee a Mini Mike - Big Mike ticket.
The fight to see who’s on top will be epic!
They say men of his stature are in short supply.
Trump, like Bob Hope, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr, is awesome BECAUSE he doesn’t stick to the script.
Yeah. Keep most of the personal stuff out of it not much to gain and a whole lot to lose
