What a great quote. Bloomberg should use this:

February 13, 2020

Trump is finally collapsing

He's under attack from all sides.

His delusions are crumbling.

His defense mechanisms won't be able to sustain the onslaught much longer.

Because... Assault Weapons Ban

Yesterday I wrote to his campaign and thanked him.

I called this "the greatest act of philanthropy in human history."

Because I'm right with you: I see exactly what he's doing.

Trump will learn not to attack Bloomberg because the counterpunch is going to be so much

worse than his ego can tolerate.

Bloomberg won't pull his punches the way the other candidates have.

He has no fear, and he's trying to teach us not to fear or hate Trump, just to laugh at him.

"Why speculate?" This forum is 80% speculation. It's the Primaries Forum.

We're all trying to speculate as to the identity of the nominee.

If Anonymous doesn't come forward now, Anonymous is a liar and a fraud

A WARNING by Anonymous opens with a self-aggrandizing story about how a crucial group of Trump's closest advisors (likely NSC members) were going to resign in protest, Anonymous being among them.

Then Anonymous recounts the miserable reaction of the Trump administration to the death of John McCain. More self-congratulatory pabulum follows: "By then Americans had grown accustomed to the president's pettiness, and they were numb to the endless controversies. Most probably tried to look the other way.

But I couldn't."

So he wrote a book. What pretentious crap!

First off, Anonymous, we weren't looking the other way. We've been full-on traumatized for three straight years. Where were you? Working for the traumatizer!

Then, justifying his anonymity, he writes: "Nor am I unprepared to attach my name to criticism of Donald Trump. I may do so, in due course."

My question to Anonymous, IF NOT NOW, WHEN?

Get off your high horse!

You were prepared to resign en masse (your words!) over Trump's crass reaction to the death of John McCain. Fair enough. But now the entire system of law and order is in full on collapse.

WHERE ARE YOU? Do you have the courage of your convictions? How much worse does it have to get before you and your collection of self-proclaimed heroes step forward?

America waits impatiently.

"I think he'd also like to clean up his own legacy"

That's fascinating! What an insightful comment.

He can drive Trump over the edge

At first I didn't believe Bloomberg was running to win, but rather out of sincere patriotism and disdain for Trump, recognizing that he had sociological and psychological advantages over Trump that no other candidate has. But so much has changed so quickly. He's spending so much money so early that I've had to adjust my opinions about his objective.

I'm not sure he foresaw what has happened in Iowa and New Hampshire.

It's possible his end game has evolved with changing events; changing patterns in his spending suggest he sees an opportunity that may not have existed even two weeks ago.

But he will do anything to get Trump out of office no matter who emerges in the lead, of that I'm certain.

Great questions you ask.

Definitely keep going for now!

This election cycle is not typical, and too many people forecast Joe would not prevail in these early contests.

He can't be written off yet. If he's got the money and the will he should go further, just to make sure.

Anyone who claims they know for certain what is happening now in this election cycle should be treated with healthy skepticism.
