Spokesman Marc LaVorgna says Bloomberg will make the endorsement speech Wednesday night.
The billionaire media mogul opted against running as a third-party candidate for fear it might siphon away votes from Clinton and help elect Republican Donald Trump.
Bloomberg has been sharply critical of Trump, and in particular of his fellow New Yorker’s inflammatory rhetoric on immigration.
Bloomberg had previously been a Democrat before switching his party affiliation to Republican before his successful 2001 run for mayor. Bloomberg, who served three terms, later became an independent and a leading advocate for gun control.
His endorsement was first reported Sunday by The New York Times.
Is that supposed to sway my vote?
I wouldn’t have expected anything different from this lib.
that should make more machshaifa supporters jump over to TRUMP !!
Bloomberg is out of touch like all the Democrats are!
Is Mr. Blumenthal comfortable with the quantity of soft-drinks that Hillary consumes? I am sure he made sure that she did not endorse the consumption of “Big Gulps.
Trump took away 1 of his business deals,
Its a business decision not political
Crook mates
No surprise here. The crazies and the old creepy men are all on one side of the scale, and all the boring politicians are on the other side. Some choice we have this year.
I wonder how much money he put into her private account?
One loser endorses another!
