Mike Bloomberg Is Suspending His Campaign, Endorses Biden "To Save Face", Trump Says
• Zero Hedge - Tyler DurdenUpdate (1050ET): President Trump was quick to react to Bloomberg's exit:
Mini Mike Bloomberg just "quit" the race for President. I could have told him long ago that he didn't have what it takes, and he would have saved himself a billion dollars, the real cost. Now he will pour money into Sleepy Joe's campaign, hoping to save face. It won't work!

Never in American history has a presidential candidate spent more to get less than Mike Bloomberg, making his buy-a-nomination bid a big bust.
Bloomberg spent $600 million to win as many states as every American who chose not to run: zero. (He has American Samoa to show for it.)
