I believe that Bloomberg has sucked the oxygen from some people like Yang and Buttigieg.

his presence is not

Mission 1: Spend a Billion dollars Pointing out out every stupid thing Donald Trump has ever done or said.

He knows he has no path to the nomination. He plans to spend a ton of money (he has said he is willing to spend $1 billion) and will concentrate on bashing Trump, not the other nominees.
If he has aspirations for office, it is likely Treasury, Housing or Commerce secretary.

That is kind of a given for billionaires.
Except for Trump, who is doing it to save the country from Democrats

Coming in late, skipping debates, while flooding the airwaves with expensive ads are bush league loser actions. He's the only candidate in the field I could never ever under any circumstances vote for. I don't recall any other Democratic candidates I felt that way about for many years.

Hold my nose I will, but I will not be surprised if Trump wins if we nominate Bloomie
