Mediaite reports:
President Donald Trump went on the offensive against 2020 Democratic candidate Michael Bloomberg, mocking the billionaire’s eight-figure political ad onslaught as “just wasting his money” and bizarrely claiming that the diminutive former New York City mayor was negotiating the right to “stand on boxes” in upcoming DNC debates.
In a midnight Twitter rant, Trump complained that the billionaire’s news organization was being unfair to his campaign because of its editorial decision to only investigate him and not any of the 2020 Democratic candidates.
Trump then went on to dismiss the $100-million-plus ad deluge that Bloomberg has unleashed against Trump. “He is going nowhere, just wasting his money,” Trump said, notably complaining about something that he claims has no effect on his campaign.
Mini Mike is now negotiating both to get on the Democrat Primary debate stage, and to have the right to stand on boxes, or a lift, during the debates. This is sometimes done, but really not fair!

Many of the ads you are watching were paid for by Mini Mike Bloomberg. He is going nowhere, just wasting his money, but he is getting the DNC to rig the election against Crazy Bernie, something they wouldn’t do for @CoryBooker and others. They are doing it to Bernie again, 2016.

Mini Mike is part of the Fake News. They are all working together. In fact, Bloomberg isn’t covering himself (too boring to do), or other Dems. Only Trump. That sounds fair! It’s all the Fake News Media, and that’s why nobody believes in them any more.
