Late Tuesday night, Michael Bloomberg took the stage at his Florida HQ to tell his supporters he was in it to win it.
About 12 hours later, he dropped out.
What a Waste
Both Tom Steyer and Michael Bloomberg are billionaire candidates that were in this race for the purpose of stroking their egos.
Between the two of them, they spent at least three-quarters of a billion dollars.
With all the problems we have in this country regarding homelessness and our veterans, they chose to walk over to the toilet and drop money that would have done a lot of good right down the toilet.
Earlier today, I tweeted about this very subject…
Think about this… If @TomSteyer and @MikeBloomberg had donated the billion to solve the #homelessness problem than to stroke their pathetic egos, #California might not have human feces in it's streets.

Even though Bloomberg has always stated he never expected to win a majority and was counting on winning a brokered convention, he uses that very argument to defend dropping out.
He stated, “I’m a believer in using data to inform decisions.
“After yesterday’s results, the delegate math has become virtually impossible – and a viable path to the nomination no longer exists.
“But I remain clear-eyed about my overriding objective: victory in November.”
Getting Behind Joe
The Democrat establishment seemed as though it was sitting on the sidelines throughout this entire election just waiting for Biden to prove to them that he could win something, anything, before backing him.
Well, last weekend he captured South Carolina and people could not jump on his bandwagon quick enough.
Several candidates dropped out, all backing Biden.
In the case of Klobuchar, it enabled Biden to carry Minnesota over Sanders who had Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) standing on his team.
These were important endorsements, and Biden just got another one in Michael Bloomberg specifically to help Biden keep Sanders away from the nomination.
He stated, “I’ve known Joe for a very long time.
“I know his decency, his honesty, and his commitment to the issues that are so important to our country – including gun safety, health care, climate change, and good jobs.”
This immediately solves Joe Biden’s money problems because while there are campaign limitations, Bloomberg can start SuperPACs and throw all the money at Joe Biden he wants and he is going to throw a ton at him, you can believe that.
Biden has already welcomed the support with open arms…
.@MikeBloomberg, I can’t thank you enough for your support—and for your tireless work on everything from gun safety reform to climate change. This race is bigger than candidates and bigger than politics. It’s about defeating Donald Trump, and with your help, we’re gonna do it.

President Trump seems ready for the fight, tweeting…
Mini Mike Bloomberg just “quit” the race for President. I could have told him long ago that he didn’t have what it takes, and he would have saved himself a billion dollars, the real cost. Now he will pour money into Sleepy Joe’s campaign, hoping to save face. It won’t work!

Welcome to 2020, patriots, where Dems try to buy the White House.
