Bloomberg vs Trump 2020
« on: February 10, 2020, 02:35:00 PM »
Can Bloomberg get Trump voters? I think he would be just as great for the economy and really good on foreign policy. And you don't have to hold your nose as tight.

Many people won't vote for Sanders/Warren, but would for another option.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I can't even think objectively here because of what Bloomberg did with מציצה בפה.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

But he won't run as a 3rd party candidate, while Bloomberg might.

Does Biden have anything to offer besides putting his foot in his mouth? He's been doing that for the last 40 or so years.  :D

And places a congestion tax on the entire US. We'll all just use bikes from then on.

I don't think that Bloomberg has the charisma needed to win a national election in 2020. Once he starts with debates and actually being seen he will come off as a kvetch.

I think he was trying to avoid having to debate so will be interesting to see once he does. But don't underestimate his ability and experience. He is a long time politician, and at the very least you have to give him the benefit of the doubt that he has a plan.

Absolutely. Don't don't count this one out.
If you don't care why would you comment?

Might just end up splitting the R voters if he ends up going 3rd party causing a possible D win

But if Bernie gets democratic nomination then he'll probably be taking some dems too.

Could easily argue the other way too.

totally disagree. Incumbent has baked in overwhelming support. And Bloomberg is very liberal on social issues, which is at the top of the list for most democrats. Regardless, there is zero chance he is going to run as independent. Most likely way he gets nod might be through a brokered convention.
