President Donald Trump’s surrogates mocked former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg as he exited the race Wednesday.
Bloomberg, who was banking on at least a few wins on Super Tuesday, came up short. The only territory he won was American Samoa, and he placed third or lower in most of the other states that voted Tuesday.
It is looking like Mike Bloomberg came up “short” this #SuperTuesday.

Bloomberg announced Wednesday that he was suspending his campaign and endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden. (RELATED: Bloomberg Suspends Presidential Campaign)
Three months ago, I entered the race to defeat Donald Trump. Today, I’m leaving for the same reason. Defeating Trump starts with uniting behind the candidate with the best shot to do it. It’s clear that is my friend and a great American, @JoeBiden. pic.twitter.com/cNJDIQHS75

Dan Bongino summed up Bloomberg’s campaign a little differently, saying, “No presidential candidate in U.S. history has spent more money to achieve less than he did.”
