Donald Trump and Michael Bloomberg, New York City’s two most famous and recognizable billionaires, are at each others throats.
After three-term New York City Mayor Bloomberg blasted Trump as a “con” and “a dangerous demagogue” in his Democratic National Convention address, the Republican presidential nominee came back swinging.
Video from New York Post.
“Let’s elect a sane competent person with international experience,” Bloomberg told the delegates in his nomination speech for Trump’s Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton.
Trump made it clear, if you strike at him, he hits back harder.
He blasted Bloomberg’s record as mayor and even his small stature, on Twitter:
“Little” Michael Bloomberg, who never had the guts to run for president, knows nothing about me. His last term as Mayor was a disaster!

He followed that one with another:
If Michael Bloomberg ran again for Mayor of New York, he wouldn’t get 10% of the vote – they would run him out of town! #NeverHillary

But, those statements don’t quite align with what he’d said four years earlier, when he sang Bloomberg’s praises.
Mike Bloomberg is doing a great job as Mayor of New York City. Ray Kelly is a great Police Commissioner. @MikeBloomberg
