Daily Mail / Drudge Report "Exclusive": Mike Bloomberg 'is considering picking Hillary Clinton as his running mate in the 2020 Democratic race to help take on Trump'
Man....
(in reply to Alex_Falk)
You just have to stir up dissension, don't you?
Four years ago I had a tough time believing Bizgirls take on what I thought were "so-called" Bernie Bros. I wish I'd have listened to her then, because you have proven her to be absolutely one hundred percent correct. You guys won't be happy until you screw up this election too.
eh?

i just thought everyone here would have a similar take on the rumor (humor + horror + skepticism), but go off i guess :)
Unlikely to happen
(in reply to Alex_Falk)
Thankfully, while not necessarily illegal or forbidden, the fact that Clinton and Bloomberg are from the same state would definitely complicate things if Bloomberg were to choose her as his running mate. Either way, she previously stated in an interview that she would not accept the position of Vice President, so hopefully she’s decided to finally sit down.
