Trump calls Warren and Bloomberg the 'losers' of Super Tuesday
President Trump played pundit on Tuesday night, tweeting that he believes Democratic presidential candidates Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg are the "losers" of Super Tuesday.
Bloomberg, Trump declared, was "the biggest loser." He actually received his first primary win in American Samoa, but Trump skipped over that, instead accusing Bloomberg's "'political' consultants" of taking him "for a ride. $700 million washed down the drain, and he got nothing for it but the nickname Mini Mike, and the complete destruction of his reputation. Way to go Mike!" Bloomberg is worth an estimated $64.2 billion, and is the world's ninth wealthiest person.
