Ago. i think hes against a wealth tax and i this i he should reconsider it. hes one of the people, like me, who has been incredibly lucky to have been in america, who has profited enormously. we need the money. he has a responsibility to give back. more than that, if he wants to be the nominee of the democratic party, hes got to understand hes got to commit to ending this inequality and hes got to commit to breaking this corporate stranglehold on our government. otherwise, he shouldnt run. >> fa...

Done about it. >> does it rise to the level of impeachment standard? is this going to be an entirely partisan vote? and i think it will probably be in the latter category. this will be a vote entirely along the lines of what the facts show, and thats disappointing. coming up, i think michael bloomberg should run as an independent. instead he seems to be joining the already cluttered democratic field. judge judy endorsed him last night on "bill maher." >> hes the only answer. >> the savior has ...

Lankan. >> oh, yeah. its a path, a very narrow path, an unlikely path. but when we look at the polls and you dont have all of michael bloombergs command, you see joe biden fading in the polls. hes down 15%. it creates for bloomberg a possibility. if were looking for someone with executive experience, he was mayor for 12 years in the country and kind of blows away pete buttigieg who was the mayor of a city of 101,000. so bloomberg, i think, sees hes got a possibility. i think where theyre going t...

We break that corporate strangle hold and i believe inequality is defining america right now. >> and bloomberg? >> i dont think michael bloomberg should run for the democratic nomination unless hes willing to commit to a wealth task. >> where do you think he is on that? >> i think hes gulf of mexico and it i dont think he should run unless hes willing to commit to it. hes one of those people incredibly lucky to be in america. who has profited enormously. we need the money. he has a responsibilit...

Appeals to the white working class. when you look at the issues that bloomberg has advocated, restrictions on the second amendment. nappy state obtrusiveness and everything from plastic straws to super sized drinks. climate change, open borders, sort of traditional engagement with china. thats not the issues that one, donald trumthatwon donald g states. is he not a charismatic dynamic person appeal to the working class episcopal, michigan, ohio, et cetera. pete: the president said it yesterday h...

Do you agree with that or is that just a rational to get in? >> i think thats a real worry. i think that a lot of mainstream democrats have voiced that, particularly with elizabeth warrens medicare for all plan that shes released now. a lot of them have said, even hillary clinton is saying i dont know that that can get passed. the question i think for bloomberg is why is his response to that getting in. if he thinks that the mainstream candidates who are already in the race are not doing good en...

Dont think bloomberg will excite the bridge. >> roads arent getting built. roads arent getting fixed. infrastructure isnt getting done because everybody so busy hating each other. >> correct. and you think michael bloomberg is the answer? >> michael bloomberg is the only personal running who has over a decade of executive experience running the largest city in the united states. >> who cares? i dont see a big city jew exciting the vote in alabama or a lot of the country. the election is going to...

The second thing is it doesnt buy you media chops. i think he has a lot of knowledge, a lot of executive experience. he knows the issues. he has been funding progressive groups for a long time on things like climate and gun violence, which are important, but is he a vessel for that message? im not going to believe he is viable until he starts getting out in the media and shows that he can go through a couple of tough interviews and gets roughed up and shows people he can withstand it. >> well, a...
