1. No opinion on Bloomberg. But Michelle is gangbuster!!!

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

2. Favorable, if he uses his money and organization to support the nominee.

Unfavorable, if deciding on a pick in the primary.

He has said that he would use his resources to support the eventual nominee, IF that nominee is Warren or Sanders.

If the nominee is Biden, Buttigieg, or Klobuchar, I hope he stays away, and doesn't put his resources behind Stein or some other third-party run.

He's a loose cannon.

4. If he spends that billion judiciously it could help any candidate.

He must really believe Trump is a lousy POTUS.

3. Eh.

I’ll reserve judgment to see how he helps out in the General against Trump. If he’s the nominee, of course I’ll be behind him 100%.

[NRaleighLiberal]

5. Mixed/not particularly familiar.

[RGinNJ]

6. Stop and frisk, game over for me.

7. Not sure I support him running, but I surely support his stances/efforts on gun control

health care, and spending his billions to STOP TRUMP.

8. Very favorable as a human being, but I'm not sure he's the right president for this moment

in history.

I used to watch his press conferences when he was Mayor of New York and a number of times he would be asked about some very good program and everyone, including him, wanted to do it but he would say, "We can't afford it." He's that kind of politician. I'm afraid he'd say "We can't afford it" to some important things because he's so budget-conscious (despite the fact Trump has taken this country on an obscene spending spree from which most Americans have gotten nothing in return).

I might be nuts, but I don't think Bloomberg is running to win. I know he says he's running to win, but I think he's just trying to save the country. People who don't like him might change their minds by November if it turns out he really is here to help us out. I think this guy is a patriot, and he's willing to spend a fortune to save us from four more years of Trump. Too good to be true? Maybe so, but we'll see.

Lastly, I don't think there's any love lost between these guys. I think it could be partly personal for Bloomberg: that he wants to help take Trump down.

9. Favorable - not as a candidate, but as a donor.

He spent millions in 2018 getting Democrats elected and he's going to spend hundreds of millions more in 2020 doing the same, whether or not he's the nominee.

[MH1]

10. Mixed. I can't pick one of the options, because I *do* know

and neither option is correct for me.

[rownesheck]

11. Unfavorable.

Not a fan of billionaires. Can't trust their motives.
