Mike Bloomberg’s free-spending campaign rollout has rocketed him into contention for the Democratic nomination — but he now faces a challenge immune to his fortune.
“We are expecting that he is going to have a lot of attention on him — he’s going to be attacked,” a Bloomberg official told POLITICO, noting that it would be his first debate since 2009. The official, who declined to speak on the record, pointed to the other candidates who've had months of practice in eight debates and numerous forums and "have gotten better as it’s gone on.
Howard Wolfson, the veteran Democratic strategist who joined Bloomberg’s orbit in 2009 after working on Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential race, is playing the role of Bernie Sanders; Julie Wood, Bloomberg’s national press secretary, is depicting Elizabeth Warren; and senior advisers Marc La Vorgna and Marcia Hale are stand-ins for Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar, respectively.
Other potential pitfalls for Bloomberg are his tendency to use dated language — words like “bawdy,” for instance — to dismiss concerns about his financial news service’s work culture for female employees.at a reporter in a wheelchair who interrupted his press conference when he dropped a recording device. More recently, he urged a reporter to “get on with it” when he was pressed about his controversial stop-and-frisk policing tactic.
I think bloomberg has alot of same attitudes as trump. He may of switched parties just because its harder to win against incumbent in your same party. Bloombergs views on social security, and minimum wage and others are not in line with true democrats
Go Mike Go!!! You got my vote!!!
He will need more than a few weeks. Racist, misogynistic ex-terrible mayor.
Makes me so sad that Democrats are actually thinking about voting for this guy. He cannot beat Trump.
Democrats remember Trump the con man is your enemy and Bloomberg is your friend
Oh hell yeah
Bloomberg is the Jewish white supremacist MikeBloomberg
Maybe Mike can bribe his way through the debate?
Mike will be like your college professor who is boring as hell and you only take the course because you have to in order to get a degree.
Time to pretend that he's not a Republican, eh? Doesn't seem believable, but ok
Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth ....
All this rich guy does is Pander.. Americans are tired of the same ole same ole ..
Hello, please checkout my gig if you need any king of graphic design.
they have little differentiation Only Sanders is shamelessly socialist locking out 50%
A future president that prepared? We haven't seen that for awhile.
This billionaire Jewish Oligarch Bloomberg already bought off the media. Trick is can the voters be bought off?
In 2016 Trump spent $563 Million, Hillary spent 1.67 Billion &she still lost a completely rigged election. So this big mouth,elitistJEW Billionaire can spent all the money he wants to spend on Ads,he will still lose.I hope he becomes the HOMELESS and live his goldenYears in vain.
Doesn't matter. Mini Mike is terrible in debates. You can polish a turd but it's still a turd.
Survey says...NO...Trump will spit him.out in little pieces...
They better leave little Mikey alone lol 😂

He shouldn’t even be in this debate.🤦♂️
If Bro’s haven’t burn him out by then
PresidentWarren been dismissed most media b/c she’s biggest threat to Corp America, of which they belong! Can’t fake her energy & enthusiasm to fix this mess. Smart as hell, tough, results-oriented bad-ass with undying commitment to GOOD GOVERNMENT which works FOR ALL PEOPLE 💪
All his opponents should join him in going after trump not each other.
So the pro Bush, pro Iraq war crimes republican trying to buy himself a presidency can prepare however long he wants, but he can't change his disgusting history of racism, sexism, telling women he works with to have abortions, attacking them for not wearing high heels. Fuck Mike!
Oh, well, they're in trouble now.
The crowd and all the candidates should boo him until he leaves the stage. He’s running in the wrong primary and he can’t buy this one.
He’s been preparing a speech about how he should drop tf out?
He's in Epstein's black book ..... Ummmm does anybody care ? Okay go back to sleep sheeple
Warren is ready! She took his money on before and won! She will do it again. PresidentWarren
