Matt Drudge, the famous news aggregator and internet provocateur, shattered the lull of an otherwise calm Saturday morning with a big-if-true bombshell

: “EXCLUSIVE: BLOOMBERG CONSIDERS HILLARY RUNNING MATE.”

Drudge also reported that the billionaire was looking to change his residency from New York, where Clinton also resides, to “homes he owns” in Colorado or Florida. Although subject to interpretation, the Constitution’s 12th Amendment states that presidential and vice presidential candidates shall not be an inhabitant of the same state.

“I can think of absolutely NOTHING that would make @realDonaldTrump and his supporters happier,” conservative commentator Candace Owens tweeted. “Do it, @HillaryClinton. Make our day.”

Distraction

Nope

By voting Yang a number of statements are made. 1) He's the best candidate to beat Trump because his plan makes sense for our future. 2) Citizens United is obsolete. 3) the DNC is hemorrhaging as much as the GOP and needs to reboot badly.

MikeBloomberg please don’t take Hilary as running mate. She couldnt beat this detestable human 4 years ago and will only hurt your ticket. She’s part of the machine. You’ll be great because you are not part of DC

No

I’m calling BS.

😬😬😬😡

I can't breathe hahaha I'm laughing so hard oh please stop Haha Haha, oxygen oxygen

No need to say anything more than Matt Drudge and internet provocateur and I check out and click off the story as false/conspiracy.

At this point, anyone of them, except Bernie.

Nope..a lie. Lets not give energy to Drudge. Doing Trump’s work🇺🇸

Gobsmacked!! But how do I feel about it? Not sure!

Only if mike resigns after inauguration

Wow this puts the DNC in a tough spot. Hillary is an anchor around any candidate & the DNC thought of Bloomberg as the default to derailing Bernie, should moderates not start winning. Note to DNC & MSNBC: 2nd & 3rd place & less popular votes is not winning.

Great job politico. You’re recycling a fake report from Drudge. This is how they propagate this shit and you’re part of the problem.

I highly doubt this is true.

Both the same height. Check

Trump would shit his pants.

That’s going backwards.

Uh oh! SABOTAGE SANDERS AGAIN! Go TRUMP!

Trump would absolutely dominate the 2020 election after being outspent 20 to 1, instead of 3 to 1 like last time.

already having BC-DS

🤮

Evil has a mate? Please folks, stop fawning over HRC. Remember that 50% of those who could vote chose to stay home in 2016. If she is such a fabulous candidate, why didnt people vote?

The Ticket to take back the Democrat Party=Bloomberg-Clinton. Might work?

Leave Hilary at home. She is too toxic.

I seriously doubt this is true, consider the source and assume it’s a Trumplican made up fantasy.

Could Hillary really have that little self respect?

Remember who is pushing this nonsense: Matt Drudge. Even with a vanity project, Bloomberg plays to win. That philosophy is plainly antithetical to choosing Hillary as a running mate.

Drudge hasn’t had a real scoop since Bill was impeached

Ones worst nightmare come true. The Gruesome Twosome running for Pres and Vise Pres. our Great Country just can’t take a hit like that. Too CRUEL.

Interesting, but won't happen. Hillarity and Bloomberg on the same ticket would be like matter and antimatter -- they'd destroy each other.

JoelCRosenberg Don’t believe it. Bloomberg is pulling every trick he can to get more headlines than Bernie & Pete. Hillary would never accept 2 position. Reason is because Hillary is the wife of the 1st black president, Bill. Bloomberg needs the minority vote.

Oh NO! She's horrible.

RIP Bloomberg

2 of the shadiest, most corrupt, most hated people in the USA.

Why not?

This is how Trump’s minions try to smear Bloomberg. How about the story that Pence is working behind Trump’s back trying to get the Republicans to pull a 25th on Trump. Pence wants to kick Trump to the curb.

'big, if true'?! Politico is a hack 'news' site.

Can't vote for Hilary. Swooping in to capitalize off the work/momentum (Kamala, Amy, Liz) of other women kind of sucks when you haven't expressed interest before....

Seems like folks are pretty scared that Bloomberg may rise!

I hope not. He has enough baggage.

Drudge enables FoxNews to have content for their shows. This crap is too silly, even for Drudge. Maybe it should be filed under 'wishful thinking'.

It would be interesting to see if Big Clinton money somehow made President Bloomberg disappear....Then Hillary would be the president. Clintoncide.

No one believes Matt Drudge anymore. This is a Bernie Bro stunt.

And that is exactly how you lose again to Trump. SMDH

Everyone has that same face when you stand that close to vermin! look at most of bill's

I didn’t know Mike had a death wish!

Um. I think Bloomberg wants to win, not lose.

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Sounds like more conspiracy theory.

Bloomberg/Clinton won't fly. We know there are those Dems & Reps who voted for Trump, citing Hillary as too elitist. Imagine what they will think with this pairing. The nominee needs to return those Dems to the flock and not give any other Dems a reason to not vote.

That would be a definite NO!

A heartbeat away

All 3 live in the past. No future for them.

Old fool lol

Don't believe drudge

I heard his running mate would be Giuliani, two former NYC mayors, together. How could they miss?

2 ass clowns is always better than 1

What the hell for? Two wrongs really don’t make a right, you know.

Lololololololol. Can't stop. Lolololol

Don’t give this legs.

No!!!!!!! Bloomberg/amy!

Oh no

Holy crap!

Nonononononononononono!

For Secretary of State, the best choices are Hillary or Joe Biden. Both would do it to serve their country I believe.

lol....Big? I don't think so.....

Bloomberg/Hillary! LOL

Would work for me

I’d say this is another 45 trick. And an indication of how scared he is of Bloomberg.

All you hand wringers- they are both from the same state. If you didn’t know, that’s a no-no

'if-true'? From him? Oh please. That tweet is click-bait garbage. Do better.

She gave us Don as surely as his mad-hatters. I do not believe Bloomberg would make such a mistake.

I would love for someone to pick Hillary!

He rolled this HRC idea out three hours after a devastating WAPO report chronicling his mistreatment of pregnant employees.

Just another Drudge conspiracy claim.

CriminalInChief is quite worried ! This ticket would slay him

Two wrongs don’t make a right

Talk about a hustler of fake news.

Click bait. Mike is way too smart to fall for it.

Then he's not so smart.

.MikeBloomberg DROP OUT NOW!!!

Trump-Breibart-Politico disinformation trail to capitalize on GOP base Hillary hate.

DNC wants Trump to win 🙄

Not true, puppy love. Cats on trees, koalas.

I wonder what these two have in common?... Epstein Bloomberg pedophile

Bloomburg would have to be a dope to consider this. All the voters on the fences would run the other way. Hilary needs to stay out of this...

Please, no

Republicans dream of this ticket.

Only effective if it causes IMPOTUS45 to have a stroke.

Do you want to lose an election? This is how.

Interesting. Great too have Hillary in the mix. Mike can look more enthusiastic, about sharing the stage.

This a joke that is just put up to create discord among Democrats. Ignore it. It’s a joke to create problems. The propaganda machines are at work.

This is BS. A GOP trick.

How many chances do white people get to prove themselves untrustworthy before y'all believe them? 😂😂😂

Aggregator?

That would be awesome

Hillary's time in politics has come and gone. There are so many highly qualified women that would do a phenomenal job in this position. We need fresh faces with new ideas, not the same old, same old.

Laughable

This is propaganda. It’s not true.

Bloomberg would not touch Clinton. She is way to politically toxic.

Not true. Bloomberg too smart. He wants to beat Trump.

But it isn't true, so there is that.

Go ahead, you'll lose ALL the Bernie supporters, and ensure a Trump victory.

Winning Ticket BloombergClinton BloombergClinton2020

Hello

It’s not true....

Looking at the source of the article should be a red flag.

Billionaire and the person who stole the nomination from Bernie that will bring in the progressives

Not again!

Are you seriously reporting this Hope you checked the references.

Ffs drudge...om

Drudge =🤡

This is such BS. Politico you should be ashamed. Spreading such obvious lies & hiding behind “some say.”

Turn the corporate screws KOed by the 12th! Traffic light yellow.

Hard pass.

Oh God, NO!

Drudge reports *only* lies.

NeverBloomberg NeverHillary anyone that believes Hillary will help anyone win as VP is mistaken. Let her be with her walks in the woods.

Can President and Vice President be from the same state? Is New York Mrs. Clinton's primary address?2020election progressives

Bloomberg clobachar that is the ticket.

Perfect ticket Bonanza for TV

Fake news.. just more Trump BS

It's a HOAX

Mike Bloomberg / Muriel Bowser....a winning ticket..

Bullshit

If Bloomberg has a little chance to win Democrats nomination, Clinton will make him zero chance. Bloomberg is out, good for Trump!😃

Date of this photo?

So let's bring the country together BY PUTTING ONE OF THE MOST DIVISIVE POLITICIANS WHO HAS EVER RUN FOR OFFICE ON THE TICKET... 🙄

Even pretending it was a hundred percent true.. considering means nothing. I'm considering winning the lottery tonight. But I can't take it to candidates I'd more dislike having to vote for ,to stop Trump. What I do it of course but for the love of God Don't Make me.

Matt Drudge. Revealer of the Monica Lewinsky Story. He’s back? Ick.

Big if True - “the moon is made of cheese” bombshell!!!!

Really...just reporting made-up 💩💩now.

That would be really dumb of him. I voted for HIllary but that campaign proved she is a non-starter for too many people. How about Bloomberg-Booker or Bloomberg-Klobuchar?

That would insure he won't get my vote

Politico, DO BETTER!!!!

Hmmm

2020 to 2032?

Not good for Bloomberg if true. HRC is not well liked. There were multiple reasons she lost to a moron like Trump and her personality was one of them.

That 'SOMEONE, ANYONE, PLEASE SAVE US' desperation is real I know. But we are going to have to WAIT till the primary is concluded. We have had TWO damn primary contests! Trump will keep breaking the law and doing the shit he does every day.

Big if true? FFS, has the media learned nothing from 2016? Trump is killing the country, and the “liberal” media is the murder weapon

Please no

As much as I dislike him, Bloomberg is intelligent. Intelligent people wouldn't let their life be the only thing between Hillary Clinton and the presidency.

🤢🤮

Clickbait.

Calm down people. You can’t have a president and Vice President from the same state. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Why in the hell would Drudge know anything about the Democratic ticket? Why are you considering this news?

don’t believe anything until it’s officially denied

Swamp Creature 2: the return of the maggots

Buuuut no. Let’s move on. Thanks for playing, Matt 🙄

Hahahahaha

Sounds like more right wing disinformation.

Why are you reporting what Drudge says? Has Hillary or Mike even hinted about this?

Why would you even repeat this disinformation?

I would not vote for Bloomberg/Clinton Ticket. They are both 'Crooks'.

The GOP hasn’t got much if they haven’t got a Clinton to attack. This is a sign of desperation “Hillary getting into the WH via the back door” I hope to god they’re not going to start up all that Benghazi hillaryemails 💩 again. TOTALLY debunked, but not for the brainwashed.

Drudge? If true? Those two things are antithetical.
