The Trump re-election campaign is taking a swing at billionaire and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, whose 2020 Democratic presidential campaign is just kicking into gear.
Trump's campaign manager Brad Parscale said Monday that the campaign will no longer credential Bloomberg reporters for rallies or other campaign events, though some reporters will be granted access on a case-by-case basis (it's unclear if this would also affect reporters covering the White House for the news agency). The announcement is in response to Bloomberg's editorial decision not to investigate Bloomberg or his Democratic competitors while he runs for office.
