Trump: I’d rather run against Bloomberg than Sanders

U.S. President Donald Trump insisted that he’d rather run against businessman Mike Bloomberg than senator Bernie Sanders in the general election this November.

Trump expressed some sense of worry about Sanders’ devoted following, suggesting that Bloomberg’s rising support would not be as unwavering.

"Frankly, I would rather run against Bloomberg than Bernie Sanders," he told reporters, "because Sanders has real followers, whether you like them or not, whether you agree with them or not — I happen to think it’s terrible what [Sanders] says."

"Bloomberg is just buying his way in," Politico cited the U.S. leader as saying.

Trump also called Bloomberg "one of the worst debaters I’ve ever seen."
