True but there aren’t enough ‘Bernin for free stuff bernites’ out there.

Let’s not allow Trump to psyche us out. I’ll be voting BlueNoMatterWho P.S GFYS realDonaldTrump

No way, Trump is just trying to play reverse psychology here to get undecided voters to vote for Bernie...Trump’s campaign wants the 2020 GE to be about socialism vs KAG, because socialism will scare lots of moderate & independent voters BernieBros OrangeFace

Bloomberg has a huge problem with the lefty's. If he gets the nod he will be beat up by the left's social media. He is the anti-Democrat.

The dude obviously wants to run against Sanders for good reasons. Are the democrats really going to fall into that basic trap?

That means he would rather run against Sanders, he just has to repeat socialism over and over.

I thought VladimirPutin decided who stands in these elections ...

mind games from trump

In other words, he’d rather run against BernieSanders

You can get many people to follow you when you promise them heaven. But I don't think he is the second coming. Shady background indeed.

MMT IS REAL. Vote for Bernie Sanders... your student loan and medical debt can be forgiven. We currently run massive deficits and the FED tells us we have no inflation. They are lying to you in order to maintain status quo.

Trump already won.

Bernie is the only one who can beat him. Any other candidate will just be handing Trump another 4 years

Trump and Team will do or say anything to ensure Bernie is the nominee. He will be the easiest to beat. The day he is the nominee, the DOJ and the Senate will launch an investigation into Jane Sanders.

someone is panicking 😂

Lol, trump must be VERY afraid of Bloomberg to drop a line like this

Ok, $10,000 that realDonaldTrump will change his melody if Bloomberg overruns Bernie in the polls.

Man U have no idea. November

And Trump would never tell a lie.

If he says that, the opposite is true.

The next time Bloomberg says 'I created 500,000 jobs' Ask him to give you a bulleted list to explain how he did it. Perhaps weave that into your next interview. Slim Fairview's 4 rules of Communication© 2020 Precision Concision Enumerate Specify. Regards, Slim.

I don't care if he faces a coat rack if it's not republican I'm voting for it. They all have to go now.

All Bernie supporters hear are free, free, free, student loan forgiveness, Medicare for all. Pretty sad actually, there is no way in hell he can follow through.

And we all know realDonaldTrump always tells the truth

It means he's scared of Bloomberg.

Read Between the Trump Lies.

realDonaldTrump

Lie

I doubt that.. trump wants bernie cuz he’s terrified of Michael with his unlimited money

I hope he faces amyklobuchar and I hope she wins.

Sanders's supporters, America's booby.

Ha ha now I’ve heard everything.

Real young and dumb followers but followers nonetheless

Ok then. One for President, one for VP.

Yeah....Corbyn had 'real' followers over here too. And the ToryBastards then secured an 80 seat majority in our GE. Because 10% of the electorate believing whole-heartedly in a candidate does not offset the other 30% of casual voters you need to win an election.

Smokescreen. He’s terrified of Bloomberg
