Hilarity results when Bloomberg floats Hillary Clinton as his running mate
Townhall ^ | 2/16/2020 | Andrea Widburg

It was a Drudge Report headline calculated to shock: “Exclusive: Bloomberg Considers Hillary Running Mate. The underlying story, at CNBC, stated that the Drudge Report itself was claiming that a source close to Mike Bloomberg’s campaign had stated that Bloomberg was considering asking Hillary Clinton to serve as his running mate. The reason given was that internal polling said that the two of them together would be a dynamic duo.

The story was met with incredulity and much hilarity (if you'll pardon the pun). The idea that Hillary Clinton would play second fiddle to anyone was hard to fathom. Moreover, given Hillary’s grating personality, the collapse of all her initiatives during her stint as Secretary of State, her habit of enriching herself at the country’s expense, and her failed candidacy, it was hard to imagine why anyone would want her on the ballot.

Twitter, the repository of clever one-liners, had a wonderful time imagining what a Bloomberg/Hillary pairing would look like and the effect it would have on Trump’s campaign:

I can think of absolutely NOTHING that would make @realDonaldTrump and his supporters happier.

Do it, @HillaryClinton.

President William Henry Harrison set the record for the shortest presidential term, dying a mere 31 days in office.

With a Vice President @HillaryClinton, a President @MikeBloomberg could shatter this record. https://t.co/XLo5GrRila — Mike Davis (@mrddmia) February 16, 2020

Bloomberg is mostly just trying to keep his name in the news. We’ll get more leaks like this from his camp.

Mini Mike turns his lifeline over to H. Clinton. Darwin approves this action.

From now on if any Trump voters see Mini Mike, they need to start shouting

Mini Mike! Stand up Mini Mike!!

As Joe Biden would say, “Yeah, stand up Mike, and pull out your wallet...oh, he is standing up
