    1. We need to game out the fact that if either Sanders or Warren is the nominee, some ghoulish billionaire (either Bloomberg or someone else) will do a third party run as a "centrist"https://twitter.com/adamcbest/status/1160607727229579264 …

    Michael Bloomberg not committing to supporting Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren if they win isn't a knock on them — it’s a reason to like them. Bernie or Liz would make billionaires pay their fair share, so of course billionaires are gonna be resistant. pic.twitter.com/3bjBFhp6qM

        2. I suspect that a Bloomberg spoiler campaign wouldn't draw enough votes to change election and might take as much from Trump as Warren or Sanders. But I'd like to see polling on this. It's a very real possibility.

        Howard Schultz was so quickly forgotten that he's not even the go-to third-party "centrist" billionaire any more 😂

        Ask President Howard Shultz about the nation's yearning for centrist third party runs.

        We can help prevent another billionaire twit jumping in by mocking Howard Schultz even harder

        Getting ballot status in 50 states by 2020 election is not doable by anyone regardless of how much $ they have. And without ballot status a candidate is a nonentity. Also, Bloomberg loathes Trump.

        Bloomberg/Schultz 2020 will get less than 1% of the vote and most of their votes will come from never-Trump Republicans in NY and DC

        They are the 1%. Very on brand.
